The Astron line is a GPS-based solor-powered watch; would be strange for it to be mechanical. A good handful of the Grand Seiko watches have the spring drive, which some would argue aren't true mechanical watches either

Best time to buy JDM watches in years due to favorable exchange rate. Ask seiyasan to order if interested. Most high-end JDM watches normally sell at a discount but not sure about limited editions.

One of the longest-running and most trusted watch sellers/exporters in Japan

Seiko Astrons are good watches. They use an internal GPS antenna to update the time daily and also to the time zone you are in. Rechargeable battery using solar.

They did a nice piece for NSX a while back.

Not enough references to the CTR from what I can see, a few markings here or there doesn't justify the cost, looks like a basic watch to me, it doesn't scream Type R ?

Not a “huge” rip off at all.
You must buy your watches at Walmart?
