Seiko Kinetic watches are like a cross between anautomatic and a quartz watch. Kinetics have a revolving weight like an automatic. But instead ofwinding a spring, the weight generates electricity andcharges a capacitor. The power reserve should last 3 to 6 months, and the capacitor should not need to be changed for years. Note that the Kinetics need to be worn regularily, otherwise the capacitor wears out.
