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. | | | Features: | |

beautiful watchJan 12, 2009

I purchased this watch for my husband for christmas and it is absolutely beautiful. It is a nice, large, heavy watch for a MAN. And the gold is not a tacky yellow gold.

Good watchJun 15, 2011
By kl
I wear this watch daily in my office job and use a sport-diving watch other times. The watch is very nice looking, comfortable and seems to be durable. The face is brown in color, for some reason I thought it was going to be blue; however, I am glad it is this color as it gives a very distinguished look and goes well with all colors one might have in their typical business wardrobe. The gold tone seems to be durable and does not have a cheap appearance like many gold tone watches. The watch has a masculine appearance. So far I have noticed great accuracy in its keeping of time. The watch does not get caught on shirt or suit coat sleeves as many larger dress watches (or diving watches) tend to do.
I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone needing a dress watch that is comfortable, stylish, masculine and accurate.

Great WatchJan 25, 2011
By Byron L. Lewis

I had shared this item with my wife but she had seen me looking at many Seiko watches and blessed me with a different model, a two-toned Kinetic and it is just as nice. While I still love this one (SKA404) and will likely add it to my other Seiko watches. I can assure you that a Seiko is a stylish and reliable timepiece maker and while you can spend a lot more, in my opinion you'll not get one much better.

Classic Seiko!May 14, 2011
By D. Howard
As always, Seiko has produced another stylish high-quality timepiece in this Kinetic watch. I prefer gold-toned watches and Seiko has some of the best quality gold plating in the industry - very slow wearing even with an extremely active lifestyle. Perhaps someday I will be able to afford solid gold but until then I expect to get many years service out of this impressive watch.
