Questions

What movement is in the Seiko SRPE79?

The SRPE79 runs on the Seiko 4R36, an automatic movement that can also be wound by hand. See the 4R36 page for its specs and every watch built on it.

Does the Seiko SRPE79 have a sapphire crystal?

No. The SRPE79 has a Hardlex crystal. Hardlex is Seiko's hardened mineral glass: tougher than plain mineral glass, softer than sapphire.

How water resistant is the Seiko SRPE79?

100 m (10 bar). That covers swimming and snorkelling; it is not a certified diver's watch unless Seiko says so.
