The Otsuka Lotec 5号改 is praised for its unique in-house satellite hour module featuring miniature ball bearings and its avant-garde, bezel-less design. Reviewers note its tall box sapphire crystal and 12.2mm thickness, including the crystal, allow it to fit under cuffs. The watch is powered by a Miyota 90S5 automatic movement and is exclusively available in Japan via lottery for JPY 748,000, approximately $4,500. One reviewer questions if its overt complexity detracts from the mystique found in other Lotec models. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Otsuka Lotec 5号改 for its distinctive complication and design at its price point.
