Would you add a MM 300 to this? What would you axe?

Which MM300 are you considering?

Got a call from a friend this morning. He’s also considering an MM300.

Good luck with the hunt.

Leaning towards one of the earlier ones - I'm not sure I'm into the gold second hand!

That’s a great collection you have there , and I think a MM300 would fit in very nicely . I wouldn’t worry too much about the gold second hand being too noticeable either , it soon becomes part of the watches charm .

It's never a bad decision to add an MM300. However, I do notice that your collection is a bit thin as far as Tunas. Unless you really don't care much for the style, it would bring some nice breadth and balance.

Just got my first tuna actually and loving it! It’s actually what’s making me think of the MM 300 as a duo

Redundancy has it’s place but given the value tied up in your redundancy you can allocate it to diversify your collection without tapping the bank account too hard.

I’m looking at the Grand Seiko GMT quartz, with the black dial.

Thanks! Have been thinking about a snowflake or a GS quartz diver - but feel I'd enjoy the MM more. Definitely not off the radar!

I am really into the MM and currently own four. I have the SLA019, SLA021, SLA023 and the LE SLA035. They get a lot of wrist time and may be my favorite dive watches of all time. I like them on the bracelet and rubber straps. You can't go wrong with any choice, older or newer. Congratulations on your SLA017 and post some pictures when it arrives.

Love your Collection
Been chasing an orange dial example since I sold my Sumo from years ago. I have a SBDX017 for my MM. You will be very happy, nice choice.

If that’s crazy, I don’t want to be sane.
