Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch

We think it only fair that on the occasion of its 100th year of Seiko from Japan, we review on the Seiko's most beautiful productions - the Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch.

The Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch comes from the famed Sportura series. The watch is not only beautiful, it is robust in construction, impressively designed and comes with a perpetual calendar. Once set, you don't have to bother with changing the day or date every month end.

There is a lot to be said and written about the Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch - for starters, it does not have any chronograph function (you don't really expect CEO's and aristocrats to run races do you?). It does not have any alarm function. The watch, priced around $1,000 is perhaps aimed at the newly retired senior executive or business people.

The seiko kinetic perpetual calendar Watch is an exceedingly beautiful, keeps accurate time and does not miss a day on its perpetual calendar. But why are there no alarms or multi-city time or chronograph? Well, the retired it is assumed, do not have too much need for any of those functions. There are no more critical meetings to attend, no more planes to catch, no more need to track the happenings in various office and business locations around the World.

The perpetual date on the Seiko Premier Chronograph Watch on the other hand, is an absolute necessity for retired folks - more often than not, they tend to forget the date. Of course, digital watches have the same (and more) functionality but we bet you not come across a single digital watch that looks even 10% as nice as the Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch.

The seiko premier chronograph watch is powered by Seiko's most innovative Kinetic technology. This is the technology that transforms simple hand movement into electrical power that charges a battery. On an active day, it can charge the batteries fully and this charge will last you several weeks. The all new Seiko Kinetic Perpetual Calendar Watch design is the 100th Anniversary watch is definitely one of the best creations from Seiko.

We mentioned earlier that the watch is aimed at retired executives and business people. Well, the retired love their sleep. When they sleep so does the Seiko premier watches! Keep the watch in a drawer of 24 hours or more and you will notice it has stopped working - or at least it appears to have stopped working. Actually, there is a part of it that continues keeping track of the time. The moment you lift the watch up, the hour, minute and calendar race in a blur of movement to display the correct day, date and time. Rip Van Winkle would have loved this watch. Seiko call this the 'sleep mode' and it was incorporated to save battery charge. Sometimes people with several watches might decide to wear the Perpetual calendar Watch Watch only for parties or on special occasions. By stopping all movement, Seiko ensures that only a trickle of power is used to keep track of time, day and date. After all if you are not wearing the watch, why show the time?
