Seiko Arctura Kinetic Chronograph

Now time for a not so premium watch but my every day watch. It´s a magnificent Seiko Arctura Kinetic Chronograph. Created in 1997 the Arctura series stand for "strong, solid build quality and aerodynamic design inspired by the arc of nature", in Seiko´s words. The design is simple and even though the Chronograph has several features the case has a clean aspect.
The Kinetic mechanism delivers quartz accuracy and a 5 month autonomy with out charging (if you want to charge it just move your wrist and it´s done). The Chronograph edition displays time, (hours, minutes and seconds) and has a chronograph up to 45 minutes in 1/5 second increments.
It´s a gents watch with a sports look and a quite good deal of technology at a very affordable price for most people not a luxury watch but a truly bang for the buck.
