Good day,
After much deliberation I have finally acquired a Limited Edition Marine Master.
As some of you may be aware, these have been the source of more than a little controversy in certain quarters of late - firstly if they were a true Seiko model and secondly as many don't like them.
To acquaint myself with the actual facts (as against the rumours) concerning this model, i contacted both Seiko Japan and Thailand. I now have it in writing from Seiko Japan (on 3 separate occasions) and also from Seiko Thailand , that these were produced by Seiko Japan and were not modified by by any distributor or local entity. These are full Seiko authorised and manufactured models - produced for the Thai market in a Limited Edition of 300.
As regards the looks - personally i love it. It totally changes the appearance of the watch - makes it look much more the diver. Suspect i am in the distinct minority (and i care not, as its a keeper) but not only does it look good in isolation, but also when side by side with its more admired brother.
So there it is the controversial MMM 300.
