FEATURES

Unlike  the  conventional  quartz  watch  powered  by  the  button-type  battery,  the 

KINETIC  is  an  analog  quartz  watch  equipped  with  an  Automatic  Generating 

System,  the  unique  technology  developed  by  SEIKO,  which  generates  electrical 

energy  to  power  the  watch  by  utilizing  the  movement  of  the  arm  or  wrist,  and 

stores  it  in  the  KINETIC  ELECTRICITY  STORAGE  UNIT  (KINETIC  E.S.U.)  The 

watch  is  equipped  with  a  2-hour  hand  and  features  an  hour-hand  independent 

adjustment  function  (for  time  difference  adjustment),  offering  several  types  of 

2-hour hand usage. For instance, if you set the 2-hour hand to show your home 

time,  you  can  independently  set  the  hour  hand  to  display  the  time  of  the  place 

you are staying at as well as easily check your home time with the 2-hour hand. 

Alternatively, you can set the 2-hour hand to display the time in a different time 

zone.

v

  THE KINETIC E.S.U. is an abbreviation for KINETIC ELECTRICITY STORAGE UNIT, which is 

the name of the power source employed in the KINETIC movements.

  The  movement  of  your  arm  while  the  watch  is  worn  generates  electrical 

energy to power the watch.  Even when the watch is worn on your arm, it 

will not be charged if your arm is not in motion.

l

  It is recommended that the watch be worn on your wrist daily for at least 

10 hours.
