Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I loved the look of this watch, SKA245. The quality of case, bracelet and crown were excellent, and the price was right.
The problem I had, was the watch would never hold a charge, regardless of how much I tried the "start-up procedure" as indicated in the instructions. (The second-hand keeps skipping every other second, indicating a low charge). Speaking of instructions, my watch came with the manual for another Seiko model, not the Kinetic. What they did include was a photo copy of the instruction sheet tucked into the watch's box.....very strange!
The bottom line was, I am returning the watch and don't know if I would ever buy another Seiko Kinetic. Too bad, it was a beautiful looking watch. Not recomended at this time.

Product Description:
The perfect accompaniment to your most stylish power suit, the Seiko SKA245 two-tone stainless steel men's watch feature's Seiko's kinetic quartz movement, which contains its own internal electrical generator--operated by natural wrist movements--making it independent of conventional storage batteries. The step-motion second hand will move in 2-second intervals when energy is reaching a level of less than 3 hours.
It features a large, round watch case that measures 1.8 inches in diameter and a unidirectional elapsed timing bezel with Arabic numerals in black engraving and coin-edged accents. The shimmery blue dial background offers large luminous markers and hands (with a second hand), 24-hour marks, and small minute indexes that surround the outer dial. The silver stainless steel bracelet band flows seamlessly into the round watch case, and it features gold-tone accents. Other features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, date function at 3 o'clock, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).
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.
