What is the '5' in Seiko 5?
There are a few variations online for what the five main attributes are in a Seiko 5 but the list below is the most widely accepted in recent years.
- Automatic Winding
- Day-Date Window
- Water Resistant
- Unbreakable Mainspring (Diaflex)
- Shock Resistant Design (Diashock)
The original five attributes as defined by Seiko are no longer true for all Seiko 5s. The crown is no longer recessed or at the 4 o'clock position.
Automatic vs Kinetic - Automatic watches are driven by a spring, not by electricity. They are able to harness motion to automatically rewind the spring. Another term for an automatic watch is a self-winding mechanical watch. Kinetic watches on the other hand are driven by electricity, not by a spring. They are able to harness motion to recharge their battery or capacitor. Seiko 5s are automatic watches, not kinetic. If you are interested in kinetic watches be sure to visit our SEIKO Kinetic Finder catalog.

Other Useful Sites
Seiko has a site dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the Seiko 5 line but in general they do not provide very much information online about Seiko 5 watches. That is one of the main reasons we created this site. Another reason is the fantastic 'Show off your Seiko 5' thread on the Watchuseek forum. That is the thread that convinced us of the greatness of the Seiko 5 line and prompted our first Seiko 5 purchase, the watch shown in the banner image.
Here are a few sites, forums and pages that are good places for Seiko-related information not specific to Seiko 5s and watch-related information not specific to Seiko.
