For the absolute rookie, the Kinetic movement is a simple idea involving the rotor (from a mechanical/automatic movement) and hook it up to a set of gears that magnify the rotor’s turns, which again rotates a motor to create the electrical charge that the capacitors absorb for later release in controlled, metered doses. With this, you keep the factory seal (or in better terms, the longevity) of the Seiko Velatura Chronograph intact for close to forever. Initially, you may need to keep a Kinetic watch on for a substantial number of hours to fill up the capacitors completely; if you wear a watch only to the club or on occasions, this may drain the electrical storage units dry and reduce the amount of total charge it can hold.
