These will sell out very quick I reckon. The last black series did. I have the Ninja Turtle and that went out of stock very quickly.

I like the MM. The price is horrible.

The black MM is going to make a lot of people happy. The price, not so much, especially given it is on what looks to be the bog stock rubber divers strap.

Of course, the one everyone wants will be made in the smallest numbers. Brilliant.

I'd pass on these. 2/3 with the wrong date wheel and the weird Halloween patina rules out the rest...

If I were in the market for a blacked out Seiko diver, the Topper Ninja MM200 (black date wheel) is a better looking, better wearing, better priced option...

I like the watches and will buy all three if my AD can get them in. I own the SLA021 and the SLA023 so this seems like a good addition. I don't think that the price is that bad. I am looking forward to them arriving.

1. If anyone has any thoughts on Seiko’s hard coating, they’d be appreciated.

2. If anyone knows whether the hard coating on this series is the same as the prior one, please chime in, thanks.

I don’t know a lot about Prospex. Interesting that none are SD movements.

It seems like Europe’s allocation has already been sold for the MM300. I called on the day of them being made public and decided not to put a deposit down and then called the next day as I had changed my mind. The uk boutique had sold its allocated 4 on pre order. Called a few european boutiques and the same story. Only way to acquire this one is to order direct from Japan.
