The well-known watch manufacturer Seiko has recently launched its novel luxury dress timepiece, the Premier Kinetic Chronograph. The steel case, measuring 42 mm in diameter, demonstrates its shiny rose gold PVD-treated surface.

The model case houses a dial, which reveals steel Roman numerals. The counters, hands and indices are all accented with subtle touches of rose gold. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal.

This Premier Kinetic Chronograph watch is animated by 7L22 Kinetic Chronograph calibre movement, which possesses 1/5th-second timing capabilities. Executed entirely by the Seiko brand, the movement incorporates a rotor, generating a kinetic power, which is delivered afterwards to a quartz crystal oscillator. Distinguished by its quartz precision and cost, this special construction requires no battery to function.

An instant flyback mechanism enables the wearer to record the total elapsed time up to 12 hours.

The Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph watch boasts 100-meter water-resistance.

Seiko self-powered Kinetic watches are really highly demanded these days. The timepieces from the range incorporate a mechanical winder for keeping energy in a battery driving a quartz movement. An offset weight rotates around an axle when the watch's wearer moves his arm. In case of automatic watches, these moves wind a main spring. As for the Seiko Kinetic technology, the arm's moves result in enough power for charging the battery.

In 2007, the Seiko Velatura watch collection was joined by marine-themed watches - a range of eleven models equipped with four different Kinetic quartz movements. Two of the movements are brand-new. The new yacht timer movements offer a one-of-a-kind countdown/stopwatch combination, a really useful feature for yacht racers.

The new watches have incorporated the innovative Seiko Kinetic Direct Drive technology that allows to hand-wind the watches for faster charging. When the watch's owner hand-winds the timepiece, the gauge 'revs' indicating how fast it is wound. When the winding is stopped, the needle moves to indicate how much energy has been accumulated.

The new Seiko Velatura watches feature diamond-shaped hands. Their dials are characterized by great readability. They are protected by sapphire crystals with anti-reflective coatings. The watches are available at the price ranging from 845 to 1,200 dollars.
