Seiko has launched a new range of “Kinetic” watches which automatically generate electrical energy through the wearer’s wrist movement. Now entering their third decade, the latest Kinetic incarnation offers a second winding function called “Direct Drive” which gives the wearer the option of winding the crown to power the device. Kinetic Direct Drive shows not only the power held in reserve, but also the level of power generated when the wearer hand-winds the crown. The wearer can see, in real time, the direct transfer of power from his or her winding of the crown to the reserve.
Dial is uniquely crafted with arches. The Direct Drive Indicator hand on the face of the watch indicates the amount of power generated by how much it moves – the more power generated, the more the hand moves. The Direct Drive hand starts moving when the winding starts and if the crown is wound in short strokes or gently, the hand only moves a little, but if the crown is would with sufficient speed, the hand makes a large move across the indicator dial, much like the hand on the tachometer of a car. When the winding is halted the hand also stops to show how much power has been generated to that point. This Seiko premier kinetic watch is really a good looking watch.
