Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. I'm not saying a Seiko mechanism is going to power any kind of smartdevice functions (although you might combo a tiny backup quartz mechanism so that when your smartwatch dies it can still tell time). What I am saying is that the problem with all these smartwatches getting shit battery life is just in their design. The Pebble, to it's credit, gets a more than adequate 4+ days of battery life because they were smart and used a microcontroller.
