What Is Seiko Kinetic Direct Drive? An Evolved Quartz Kinetic Movement; The Answer Is Here
We are lucky that Seiko spends as much time as they do in the lab dreaming up new movements. In fact, Seiko watches now come in at least five different movement flavors. You can get a traditional quartz movement, an automatic mechanical movement, a quartz Kinetic movement, a quartz Kinetic Direct Drive movement, and a quartz regulated Spring Drive mechanical movement. Seiko's dream seems to be combining the best of both worlds in terms of quartz and mechanical movements. Arguably the Spring Drive embodies this dream as it looks like an automatic mechanical movement, but has the accuracy of a quartz movement.Before coming out with the Spring Drive movement, Seiko created the Kinetic movement. The idea was simple. Take the rotor from an automatic mechanical movement, and instead of having it wind a main spring, have it charge a battery. This relieved the owner of ever having to replace the watch battery, and gave them the accuracy of a quartz movement. The Kinetic movement was very succe

Mil-Sub Watch bands
As many of you know I have a Hager Commando which is a hommage of the Rolex SBS Mil-Sub. The watch is superbno complaints. The watch was designed to use a NATO band of which I am not a fan. I have been using a generic oyster type band that has the removable curve end pieces which works except for there is a small gap between where the male end of the bracelet fits into the slot of the curve end. The gap is only about 1.5mm but it is driving me bonkersit is not really that visable except I am not fixated on the gap and as we know these little things can be maddening. A solid end link bracelet is preference but it will not fit (I have tried). I went to the bay and bought a quasi-solid end bracelet (similar to a solid end except the end is hollow and it did not fit so I returned it (it is a generic Rolex replacement type). I have included pictures of the two types of bracelets.My questions are: 1. Is the Milsub, or for that matter, pre-80's Rolexes, designed in such a way that a s
