SEIKO Diver SBCZ005 Kinetic Watch
Overview
The Seiko SBCZ005 "Gray Ghost" (5M63-0B40) is a 39mm men's kinetic watch with a titanium case and a black analog dial protected by hardlex crystal. It uses a 5M63 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 6 months when fully charged and will recharge when moved.
The SBCZ005 is currently ranked #302 in popularity out of 751 watches in this catalog. No retailer link is on file for .com; current availability is unknown.

The case of the SBCZ005 measures approximately 39mm wide (not including the crown) by 13mm thick and is water resistant to 200 meters. This should be sufficient for splashes, rain, baths, showers, swimming and even scuba diving. The crown screws down to help prevent it from being accidentally pulled out while under water. The titanium bezel shows minute numbering and can 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 SBCZ005 provides the following features and complications:
- Second hand
- Minute hand
- Hour hand
- Day window to show the day of the week including two language choices for the day (English and either Spanish, Arabic, Kanji, Chinese, French, German, Danish or Roman Numerals). When setting the day keep turning the crown to get to the next language. On most models SUN will be red and on some models SAT will be blue.
- 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.
- Power reserve indicator button which causes one of the hands to move to show the remaining power level
- Rotatable bezel
