The new SBDX023 (JDM) or SLA025 (International) is now out
This is the replacement for the MM300 SBDX017.
Like the LE Green MM300 SLA019 released earlier this year, the SBDX023 has been upgraded with a sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel insert, and Diashield coating. There is now some gold trim on the dial (the 300) and the sweep seconds hand.
There is a BLUE colorway version on its way as well.
I don't know official MSRP yet, but from online retailers already selling them that I've seen
They are going for a little bit LESS than the Deep Forest LE was selling for. The Deep Forest was an LE model so that may explain the pricing differential.
Exactly like the Deep Forest, the Lumibrite luminous is only on the triangle, and up to the 20 min marker every 5 mins.
The only difference from the Deep Forest is that the colorway is changed from green to black. I want to see the new blue colorway before I can decide on which one to get, but the blue may be another LE.
