- Does the Seiko 5 SNKA05K1 wind by hand?
- No. The 7S26 movement winds only through wrist motion, so it stops if left unworn for about a day or two.
- Can I swim with it?
- No. Its 30 m rating covers splashes and rain, not swimming or showering.
- Does it have a sapphire crystal?
- No, it uses mineral glass. It resists light knocks but scratches more easily than sapphire.
- What is the case size?
- It is a small case, roughly 37 mm across, which suits wrists that find larger watches bulky.
- Does it show the day as well as the date?
- Yes. The window at 3 o'clock shows both the day of the week and the date.
- Is it a good first automatic watch?
- Yes, if you accept no hand-winding and modest water resistance. The in-house movement and steel bracelet are strong for an entry-level mechanical watch.
