Incoming SBDX017 MM300

Very excited to add this bad boy to the collection. First impressions: it’s a beast, thick and very rugged feeling. Wide, deep black, glossy bezel (almost looks and feels ceramic), very deep set dial (which feels like a 40mm dial or smaller when looking head on, due to wide bezel). Love the hands and maxi applied indices. Date wheel has a champagne, gold, shimmer, as do some of the other surfaces. Case work and lines are obviously excellent. Feels very premium. Great 20mm Seiko rubber strap, subtle but textured enough to keep it interesting and it works well with the chunky case. Overall great package. Looking forward to putting it through its paces.

I have one too and absolutely love it. You will love how the bezel changes color with light.
