This was a birthday gift from my wife and kids 2 years ago. The transparent series is for me the iconic Swatch look of the 80s/90s. If it were just me I would have chosen the fully clear one. But this one with a strip in the back makes it go well with jeans.

@hakki501 absolutely right about bringing to your friendly technician (or Seiko service center). From my experience with 2 Kinetic watches that both had their own issues, there's no link between the battery life and the rotor performance. The rotor on one did "slow down" which I would attribute to age (20+ years). My watch tech did a quick tune-up and rotor works fine now.

Enjoy!!

The watch? Pagani Design PD-1717. Depending where you are, should be available on an online merchant site hosting Chinese brand watches.

commented on Which watch ยท

Seiko diver GMT. The look says hardworker, tough, not fancy, people-person.

Best of luck!
