There are Seiko divers and then there is the mighty MM300. The only flaw I see with mine is that it no longer makes me want to own any of the lower-end beater-type Seiko divers anymore. I’m on my second and not going to make the mistake of selling this one.

I rate it highly but in a choice decided to keep my GS DIver. Its beautiful to look at on the wrist.

Congrats Dave :salute:
Agree with Carl. An MM300 is what led me to a GS Diver, and my 001 ultimately found its forever home with Marchone (dibs if you’re reading this Chef Wayne.)

Hang onto that, Dave. :clap:

These are the best ones. I had one many years ago and foolishly sold it. Tried multiple SLA021's but they didn't do the trick. I've now got an SLA025 and even that one doesn't have the charm of the 001.
