Key Features
- 21-Jewel Japanese Automatic Movement – The heart of this watch is its self-winding mechanical movement, which uses the wearer’s arm motion to generate power. With 21 synthetic rubies (jewels) used as bearings within the movement, friction is reduced, enhancing longevity and accuracy over time. No battery changes are needed, making it a practical choice for those who prefer low-maintenance timekeeping.
- Luminous Gold-Toned Hands and Markers – The watch features baton-style hour markers and hands finished in a gold tone with luminous material. This allows for clear time reading in dim lighting, whether you’re checking the time in a theater or during an early morning commute.
- Date Display at 3 O’Clock – A date window positioned at the 3 o’clock mark offers everyday functionality, keeping you on schedule without cluttering the dial’s clean layout.
- Hardlex Mineral Crystal – The dial is protected by Seiko’s proprietary Hardlex crystal, a mineral glass known for its resistance to scratches and everyday impacts. While not as hard as sapphire, it provides reliable clarity and durability for daily use.
- Brushed-and-Polished Stainless Steel Bracelet – The bracelet combines brushed and polished finishes, adding visual depth and a refined look. It fastens securely with a fold-over clasp, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit throughout the day.
- Exhibition Case Back – The transparent case back reveals the intricate inner workings of the automatic movement. This feature appeals to watch enthusiasts who appreciate the craftsmanship and rhythmic motion of mechanical components in action.
- Water Resistance to 99 Feet (30 Meters) – Rated for 30 meters, the watch can handle brief exposure to water, such as handwashing, light rain, or accidental splashes. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving.
