Kinetic: A powerhouse in technological innovation
Like mechanical and quartz, Kinetic is a platform. Over the past 20 years, SEIKO has created on this platform a suite of Kinetic movements, each bringing unique features to the consumer.
It was at the 1986 Basel Fair that SEIKO unveiled its first Kinetic prototype. Introduced under the trial name of 'AGM', it was the first watch in the world to convert kinetic movement into electrical energy. It was the first step in a development that, 20 years later, has made Kinetic synonymous with environmental friendliness, high performance and long-lasting convenience to a generation of users worldwide. From the launch in 1988 of the first commercially available watch (then under the new name AGS) until today, over eight million Kinetic watches have been sold (as of 2007).
In 1998, Kinetic Auto Relay was released, extending the 'at-rest' operating period of the watch to a remarkable 4 years. 1999 saw the launch of the Ultimate Kinetic Chronograph, a masterpiece which fused the very best of SEIKO's mechanical and electronic watch making skills, and in 2003 another Kinetic Chronograph was launched. At Baselworld 2005, the Kinetic Perpetual made its first appearance, combining Kinetic convenience and longevity with a perpetual calendar, correct to the year 2100. In 2007, SEIKO's emotional technology Kinetic Direct Drive is introduced.

This review is from: Seiko Men's SNL038 Coutura Kinetic Watch (Watch)
In this day & age of pre-beat to distress everything it's hard to fit in an all gold watch into the attire. But when one does choose their gold watch it is for a very special occasion. Thank You Amazon. Real Nice Price. And it came with paperwork this time!
So what can I say that will be helpful? You're going to get attention. You're going to get compliments. You're going to get mugged. Such is the stigma of an all gold watch. Band has no extra-fine adjustment holes, but it has a half-link on either side of the clasp which should suffice. The stopwatch buttons are hard to push, but the manual states as such, there are solid metal parts involved, not like the Seiko quartz chronographs. As for readability, how can a person go wrong with black on white? But leaving it on while in bed in the dark will be next to useless...only the hands have glow-in-the-dark paint and they are quite small. I can't make out the time anyway. A Seiko diver is what you want if you're looking for a bright beddy-bye watch for dark room viewing. I believe Seiko was very proud of this particular all gold face, which is why they put it in a Coutura bezel.
