Miyota's basic "2 hands, small second" quartz. Factory spec: 6 3/4 x 8 lignes (non-round, about 18.5 x 15.3mm per Miyota's sheet, so no single diameter is recorded), 2.93mm high, accuracy +/-20 s/month, SR621SW battery, battery life 3 years (pulling out the stem minimises consumption). Small seconds at 6 o'clock, 6.61mm from the centre; the 1L40 is the same movement with the small seconds 5.0mm from the centre. Miyota's instruction manual says the small seconds hand starts again when the crown is pushed back in from the time-setting position (recorded as hacking). Miyota does not state a jewel count or country of manufacture; 0 jewels and Japanese manufacture are from Caliber Corner, which also calls it the replacement for the Citizen 1045.
