I don’t think so. It’s probably either blasted or some kind of matte plating.

Going to need to see live shots of the green mm200.

Smart move on the green tire tread Willard strap for those wanting a green version for their black Willard.

Yeah, this is hot. I'm glad they brought back the hands and general design aesthetic from the SBBN015 Tuna on this one. It isn't cheap though.

Thinking a lot of you guys may have seen these. But just saw them over
at OceanicTime.

These brand new Prospex Special Edition PADIs come in your choice of Solar
Chronograph or automatic. With 44.5mm, and 45mm stainless steel cases,
200m WR, sapphire crystals, sporty pepsi bezels, black dials with Lumibrite
coated hands, and markers, stainless steel bracelets, and Seiko V192, or
6R35 movements.

I like everything about this one....except the price. Although I will eventually get one and keep it forever :grin:

The new sapphire really makes it more legible without all the distortion of the older models. I couldn’t stand it on my old SBBN007.
The new dial, hand set and lume pip is much nicer too, of course IMO. Plus I never liked the last generations hand set and lume pip.

I’m getting sucked into Tuna land. I started with an 025 Arnie, then I bought the STBR007 as a smaller Tuna. My wife stole that one so I bought a 497 Solar Tuna. Awesome watch. Now, dammit, I want the new 045.
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

I’m having Tuna withdrawals myself. The 045 has everything I want in a Tuna.

Did we touch on these new limited edition Seiko Prospex models
already guys?

All three help to celebrate Seiko’s 140th Anniversary, as well
as pay tribute to the island of Iriomote. With details like the
cool green dials, 300m water resistance (SLA047), 200m WR
for the SPB207, and SSC807, nice diver’s bezels, and bracelets.
Along with Seiko Caliber 8L35 within the SLA047, 6R35 within
the SPB207, as well as V192 solar movement in the SSC807 too.

Just a few pictures everybody...

W&W, and Seiko with this, and more...

I really like the Sumo. I really think I should have kept mine even though it wore too big, but the parts of the Sumo that seem elegant and classy are completely ruined by the PADI treatment. For something that looks so good on the NAFT seems to have completely ruined any modesty the Sumo had.

On reading what I just wrote that seems really harsh and I’m still posting it because I feel it is accurate. Oh and since the newer sapphire model has came out the new hands, while only slightly different that the original ones suck and now it costs double what it used to. Meh.
