Says 1/20th sec stepping on dial, do you really think its Quartz?

I thought quartz based on the hands layout would be quite complicated or custom if automatic. Not that Seiko can't deliver such precision.

I just wanted to say that quartz with such precision is not a common thing, or rather, very rare. To me, it looked like a modified Orient mechanical movement...

I had a Seiko Chrono Quartz in late 80's that was quite precise. If you look at some of the Quartz Chrono's coming out, they are more apt to put mutliple timers on one pole than you'd expect at that price point.
