Are you just referring to the fact that an Eco Drive "automatically" charges itself? Because as I'm sure you know, it is a quartz movement.


Yes.

I know.

Energy is stored in a capacitor? Or something like it from a light source. I meant for OP that it does not need winding and is not a "battery". So he'll never need to swap a battery. However when an Eco-Drive "dies" that fricker is dead. Not worth sending a $200 watch to Japan to be serviced.

My Eco-Drive "Orca" (google it) is damned ugly. But I love it. It has lasted 5 years, but it is in a rotation. Wrist time for it is about once a week.
