I have owned Seiko kinetic watches for over ten yrs & love em’ , Kinetic’s have never given me any problems what so ever . In fact i highly regard Seiko kinetic watches as super reliable & accurate time pieces , so i purchased a new Arctura Perpetual Kinetic on 02/04/13 , i really like the piece above ‘thumbs up’ .

I remember the earlier ones tend to have capacitor failure and take very long to get to full charge. The newer ones are okay.

Yes from approx the year 2000 onwards , Seiko kinetics are done with using first generation capacitors & now use Lithium-Ion capacitors . My previous Arctura kinetic chronograph was 10yo when i flipped it & never had any power reserve issues , Seiko kinetic do need wrist time , also its best to wear them daily to keep them from dropping charge . Kinetic’s aint drawer queens or for ppl that dont move , when worn daily they easily stay at full charge & offer up to 6 months power reserve .
