Don't worry guys, there are plenty of pre-owned or mint condition MM300 SBDX001/017 in the secondary markets so just chill out ! Of course the next generation of Nippon Subs will be equipped with cooler latest hi-tech wearable upgrades.
Here's a toast to the MM300  Always loved, Never forgotten, Forever missed....

I think that the Alpinist is biting the dust, too.

Nice watch, but it had some issues, even at the reasonable price point. Probably a better upgrade coming and there has been a reference to a green MM type watch coming out for Basel. Interesting how Seiko is going "Swiss" by taking out the 6 out of their mostly under 1k watches and dumping a 4 movement. It really represented a good value movement in the day.

It doesent say marinemaster on the dial. Prospex logo only. Kills it for me. The sbdx001,sbdx017,sbdx012 are history as we know it. RIP. |

Hopefully the green limited edition is an indication of what the future MM will be like. (finally, sapphire crystal!)

Prospex logo is a small price to pay for sapphire and ceramic upgrades. The spirit of the MM300 will live on.

I just wish they sold parts for the 8l35 and made them more reliable. I have owned 4 and only 1 of them kept great time.
