Only 2750...not bad for a new Seiko release

[four20]

why did they have to use the V192 in the Sumo? i hate that useless 24hr subdial

[toxicavenger]

I’m smitten.

I thought it was around $2750, base on the quoted yen pricing

The newest NAFT is by far the least interesting thing in this photo:

Yes, this could be the dream sub-$1K Seiko diver. Of course, Seiko will probably screw it up somehow.
Edit: talking about the one in the lower left of the bottom pic. The one on top is incredible, but will be many multiple of $1K.

Isn’t the one on top the SLA025?

Same watch in a different color.

Looking forward to getting more information on that latest 62MAS version.

Looking forward to getting more information on that latest 62MAS version.

Me too. I'm interested to see if that lower left one is just the SBDC051/053 case with new hands, or if it is a new case altogether.

FWIW, I believe the SBDC051/053 represents just about the pinnacle of budget dive watch from a value proposition perspective. Leveraging that case with some new handset options makes sense.

Hope is a smaller case! Love the look but the mm200 fits so much better on the wrist.

Seiko and Grand Seiko have some real gems, but man, they have some really ugly watches too...

So true. Something for everyone I guess.

That Astron SBXC055 case shape is nice and would make a nice 6139 Pogue homage. I would only be able to get one in quartz, Seiko. Please get on that with an entirely new single register movement.

[Selym]

Would it have killed them to release an SKX with the 4R36 movement?

[r.palace]

Damn, I might just have to get in on this one. The specs are perfect.

Limited to 5500 pieces.

Seiko SBDC101/SPB149

Thickness: 13.2mm
Diameter: 40.5mm
L2L: 47.6mm




Edit:

Apparently 3 other LE 55th Anniversary models are being released. Their pricing is typical crazy Seiko but they look great

That looks great ! What's the going rate? $6000 ish?

Busy March for Seiko.

Looks nice! I wonder if this set of hands will be available soon. I'd like to swap them into my SPB053..

Because it’s going to have the pedestrian 6R movement, they’re saying somewhere in the $1300 range

The other LE’s are ranging from 4K-7k it seems

[59yukon01]

Almost got excited about that whitish dial Samurai, but there's that f**king wart again.

If I have to change something on a watch to like it then I'm never a buyer.

Also after having the SPB053 for several years I prefer its case/profile/bezel, and even the hands, over these new releases.

Finally anything over say $700 for any 6r based movement is a no for me. Been burned too many times.

I'd be in for the $1.3K range.

My SLA017 wears perfect, so this would be a lower cost "every day wear" version of that watch.

New Spring Drive movement. Interesting, but limited, big (albeit in titanium), and pricey.

Seiko really shits on their LE buyers with these follow-up releases.

Apart from that, lots of great looking options here.
