Marinemaster 300
A reasonably priced diver with wrist presence. Previously owned the SBDX001 and sold it over 3 years ago. It had been sort of a mini grail for me as an accidental Seiko collector. Acquired this one recently, the next Gen but still discontinued SBDX017. Came with a slew of straps and both OEM bracelet and aftermarket Miltat bracelet that have yet to be sized. Could be a fun Summer watch although super heavy on bracelet. Likely rubber is the best way to go with this basic luxury tool diver.

Nice Marine Master.
Hanging out with a cousin today. And I’d love to find an original 62MAS in exceptional condition. ...
Love your SLA017
Agree that a very fine original would be sweet. Thanks for sharing yours! I’m back into Seiko divers lately after years of Rolex, IWC, Glashutte Original, and Grand Seiko.
Very nice
I tried it on a few times but it didnt work well for me, primarily because of the skinny strap. Do you know the lug size?
20mm
I’ve heard both arguments but I feel it is just fine at 20mm…. It is solid too heavy but nothing too terrible. For around the 2K mark it is a whole lotta watch.
Thanks
Absolutely agree, it is right up there with the best such as the sea dweller, ploprof, etc.
I love the MM300 !
For me the quintessential modern Seiko diver! Here a picture of my blue dial version : Same as you I feel that the watch is a bit on the heavy side with the steel bracelet,especially for the summer. Do you happen to know the brand of the orange rubber str...
