Seiko 7S26 Automatic
The 7S26 was introduced in the mid-90s and it is used in all of Seiko's entry
level mechanical watches, including the popular Seiko 5 and Automatic Diver's
lines. It is widely regarded as a very robust and reliable movement, found in
watches touted as "bullet-proof" by their owners.The ability to withstand
abuse is a desirable feature for a mechanical watch. The 7S26 uses Seiko's
patented Diashock shock protection on the balance pivots, has a soft, plastic
spacer ring closely integrated with the movement and a relatively low mass
rotor, that is unlikely to bend or break the rotor shaft even with very severe
shocks. The plastic spacer ring provides a great deal of additional shock
resistance and is a more economical solution than a metal spacer ring, as well.
The dial side of the 7S26 movement contains a day and date mechanism with
quick-set features that is largely made of plastic.
One of the special features of Seiko automatics is the Magic Lever winding
system. It has only four parts and this simplicity of design adds to its
robustness while maintaining a high level of functionality.
