Reply With QuoteThat looks fantastic, but wow, what a price and have you seen the size of it... 53.3mm×48.2mm×19.66mm. Nearly 20mm thick! It would need to be touch as I'd be bashing into every door frame I passed through with that on my wrist.
Just noticed one I hadn't seen before on the Seiko Japan site - I've fallen in love but quite expensive at about £3.5k ;)
Limited edition with 8L55 movement and linked in some way to JAMSTEC, Japan's centre for deep ocean science - nice! More at https://www.seiko-watch.co.jp/prospe...terpro/sbex003

Yes it's rather like a MM300 on steroids ;)

Like the sawtooth style bezel.
I've really liked the look of these - but what is the clasp like?
It's just a matter of time...
Seiko's DSSD version of the SBDX001? Looks good.
That is a considerable lump of watch (and money)
Now, that is a real watch, mate...
personally those hands put me off and double screws...Originally Posted by searat
No, there was a time when quality dive watches could easily be worn with a suit, this, the latest Rolex and 45mm Omegas and all the other super sized watches clearly show that a gentleman is now supposed to copy the style of a professional footballer or boy from the hood.
I saw this model in Basel. Had my MM300 on and was amazed at the size. Not for me.
Love the look but way too big and thick for most wrists I'd imagine.
You probably saw SBEX001.
True, but they are the same size right?
Not a fan of the date aperture at 4.5 but aside from that I think it looks great!
At that size, I'm surprised the depth rating isn't deeper
Yup, would seem so.
I think only difference is the gilt hands and details.
Just seen this watch and fell in love. What price could you get this for now second hand?

Looks great but the size is ridiculous IMHO.
Great looking but just too big.

A great looking watch but it is too big, as mentioned previously.
Based on their history alone, I am sure that Seiko have the capability of making a 1000m watch with a smaller case. Why they have to make the case so big is a bit silly.
Can't see what this watch adds over and above my MM300, apart from unnecessary dimensions.
Two good looking watches.
The bad news is though that from the design point of view everything what makes the mm300 a nice watch went wrong on the other model. Proportion (size as well), the bezel side, bezel insert, indeces, shape of hands, ugly screws on end links.Two good looking watches.
Yeah, but the quality is a lot better.
It's just a matter of time...
Just a little too big even taking into consideration the latest trends of large watches are my humble thoughts on the watch.
