Kinetic: A powerhouse in technological innovation
Like mechanical and quartz, Kinetic is a platform. Over the past 20 years, SEIKO has created on this platform a suite of Kinetic movements, each bringing unique features to the consumer.
It was at the 1986 Basel Fair that SEIKO unveiled its first Kinetic prototype. Introduced under the trial name of 'AGM', it was the first watch in the world to convert kinetic movement into electrical energy. It was the first step in a development that, 20 years later, has made Kinetic synonymous with environmental friendliness, high performance and long-lasting convenience to a generation of users worldwide. From the launch in 1988 of the first commercially available watch (then under the new name AGS) until today, over eight million Kinetic watches have been sold (as of 2007).
In 1998, Kinetic Auto Relay was released, extending the 'at-rest' operating period of the watch to a remarkable 4 years. 1999 saw the launch of the Ultimate Kinetic Chronograph, a masterpiece which fused the very best of SEIKO's mechanical and electronic watch making skills, and in 2003 another Kinetic Chronograph was launched. At Baselworld 2005, the Kinetic Perpetual made its first appearance, combining Kinetic convenience and longevity with a perpetual calendar, correct to the year 2100. In 2007, SEIKO's emotional technology Kinetic Direct Drive is introduced.

I can't say enough about this watch it is quickly becoming my favorite. It has the classic styling of a Rolex submariner but unlike Rolex clones and copies it is large and robust with great wrist presence. The quality on the surgical stainless band and Case is simply amazing at this price level. The watch is very large but does not look akward as some of the other seiko divers do, which can be a bit over the top in chunky design...It just looks like a classey time piece and internet photos do not do it justice.The bezel is smooth and crisp and oozes quality.
Another great feature is the Kinetic movement which gives it some mechanical personality. It charges the internal battery through kinetic inertia, so it is essentially a quartz rechargeable watch that won't require a battery change for quite some time. Because it is quartz, the time is always spot on, so its great for daily wear. The face is beautifull and simple affording precise time at a glance, the renowned Seiko Lume is great also.
At this price this watch is simply a steal. Negatives..not to many ....the skelton hands are nice but make night viewing a bit of an exercise as only the tips of the hour hand and minute hand are visable with lume. Also kinetic's reportedly should be worn regularly to maintain a charge. If it sits in a desk drawer for months then I have heard stories that the battery life may not be optimal, as the battery is drained down. But I dont know if this is true.
Its a great piece you wont be dissapointed.
