Seiko Kinetic - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

This Seiko watch is my second with the Kinetic system. It is a Kinetic quartz movement, the Seiko 5M82 movement without battery having an integrated electricity system, the Kinetic technology draws its energy from the movement of the arm, the crown, located at three o'clock, allows you to set the time and the push button located at 2 o'clock helps to check the power reserve. An example on mine just now I pressed the push button and it scrolled for 20 seconds which tells me that I have autonomy for a month. I really like this Seiko watch because the system is really original and ingenious, plus this watch has a really superb blue dial and it has a nice presence on the wrist, it comes with a steel bracelet but I alternate with a tropical bracelet, I really like Japanese watches and I wear it quite often the dial glass is in Hardlex (reinforced mineral) its diameter is 42.5mm and it is water resistant to 100m, it is not a watch of diving there is no crown aimed.

I present to you my Seiko Kinetic beige the reference is SKA787P1, I really like this Japanese watch that I find pretty and with a system even if it is not mechanical it is equipped with the Kinetic system a label of the Seiko manufacture or the bottom of the watch which is transparent lets glimpse two small copper coils which are used to power the watch ... simply by shaking it or walking the Kinetic system of the watch recharges it with energy. the glass is in Hardlex the diameter is 42mm and the water resistance is 100m its price at the time 3 years ago was 250 euros.

Before receiving this watch as a gift, I was content with quartz watches, mainly Gshock and Pulsar. Then the Kinetic movement with its oscillating weight visible through the case back led me to take an interest in mechanical and automatic movements. This watch did not leave me for several years during which I wore it daily to the office. It is very precise thanks to the quartz movement but does not require a battery change thanks to the Kinetic technology which combines the precision of quartz and the autonomy of an automatic. This watch and its many other variations are perfect daily watches in my opinion. The quality is also there with a beautiful case and an ultra-readable dial. The date window on a black background is also an additional touch of elegance. The original black leather strap gave up on me a few years ago and I now wear it on a Barton nato strap.
