SEIKO Chrono SNL036 Kinetic Watch
Overview
The Seiko Coutura SNL036 (7L22-0AL0) is a 43mm men's kinetic watch with a stainless steel case and a black analog dial protected by sapphire crystal. It uses a 7L22 caliber quartz movement that cannot be manually wound but can be hacked (the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out). The watch should run for up to 5 months when fully charged and will recharge when moved.
The SNL036 is currently ranked #557 in popularity out of 1,137 watches in this catalog. Check availability on Amazon.com.

SNL036 is only a partial model number. [learn more]
The case of the SNL036 measures approximately 43mm wide (not including the crown) by 14mm thick and is water resistant to 100 meters. This should be sufficient for splashes, rain, baths, showers & swimming (shallow diving) but is not recommended for scuba diving. The crown does not screw down which increases the risk that it could be pulled out accidentally while under water. The stainless steel bezel is fixed (cannot be rotated). The gap between the lugs is 20mm and the bracelet band can be adjusted to fit using a link removal tool but may be difficult to replace with another band due to the shape of the lugs.
The SNL036 provides the following features and complications:
- Second hand
- Seconds subdial
- Minute hand
- Hour hand
- Chronograph that includes a subdial for minutes with a minimum resolution of 1/5 second and a maximum duration of 45 minutes. The central second hand is used by the chronograph. When the chronograph is not in use this hand is stationary. Seconds are shown on the seconds subdial.
- Date window to show the day of the month. Note that some watches may be damaged if you attempt to change the date between 8:00 PM and 2:00 AM, in which case you should change the time to be outside that range first then reset the time after adjusting the date. Check your watch manual for details.
