Which Seiko 5 did you get? I go back and forth with my automatics but I have to be honest, that most sit in my drawer and I only wear them for occasions. For that I appreciate ones that have hacking. I will always stop the watch with the second hand at 12:00 and then put it back in my drawer. When I decide to wear it one morning, I'll just quickly set the time and start the watch again with a shake or wind for good measure.

Otherwise during covid, I haven't worn an automatic at all. I've just been wearing my casio solar watches.
