At its heart lies the Seiko 5126A automatic movement, operating at 19,800 beats per hour. This 23-jewel movement includes a day-date complication, with the date quickset function activated by pressing the crown. Notably, it lacks hand-winding and hacking features, which were more common in higher-end models of the time. The movement's architecture is distinctive, utilizing reverser wheels for the automatic winding mechanism, differing from Seiko's typical pawl and transmission wheel system.
