Seiya

Post by marchone » Fri May 10, 2013 6:11 am

I noticed last week that Seiya was on vacay and all his photos were down. I looked in today to find he has new photos and corrected prices reflecting the recent devaluation of the yen. For example, Seiko MM300 is now $2158. I think he was about $2600 before.

I haven't checked with US dealers like AZ Time but this may balance out the GS price increases seen in January.
only accurate watches are interesting

Looks like he has really trimmed down his selection.

I have been thinking about one of these for a couple years, may have to check with Katsu to see what he can get them for.

Reminds me of a watch my Dad had, back in the mid-to-late 70's, but with all the modern workings.

Wow, yen down that much? Maybe the MM300 will find its way back in.

I could really use an MM300. Well, not really but I would love to have one.

No kidding. The quartz GS I've been wanting is down to around $1600.

061 or 063? I have the 063 and the silver / champagne dial is amazing.

I would most likely go 063 when the time comes. I'm stuck between both, but I do not have a dial remotely like the 063's finish. The 061 looks to have an interesting sheen, but the 063 seems more unique.

And the Tuna on bracelet is just under that. It's a great time to buy Japanese.
