RE: Are battery powered watches OBSOLETE?

Seiko sub-company........Grand Seiko makes a lot of wind-up watches. Some are High Beat which is 10hz mechanical movement.
they are $$$

Solar is cool, and you CAN find one with a perpetual calendar...so no screwing with it ever.
The problem is that even the solar 'battery'....a capacitor, I think, doesn't last forever.

Seiko made a watch called Kiinetic which was a self-winder which stored the energy AS ELECTRICITY which provided very accurate time keeping. Maybe as a perpetual calender model, too?

Too much is never enough
