Seiko Meca-Quartz Chronograph Review: 8T67-00C0 (SBTR005)

A quick review of the Seiko 8T67-00C0 (SBTR005) watch, a meca-quartz chronograph (sometimes spelled mecha-quartz). This means the movement is quartz (battery-powered) but the chronograph (stopwatch) function is mechanically controlled. Some benefits of this are:

* A nice tactile feel when you press the start/stop and reset pushers
* The stopwatch seconds hand sweeps around the dial
* The stopwatch hands instantly return to their starting positions when reset

Seiko also brands this movement as VK67. Get more details, including downloadable PDF instructions and technical guide, here:
