MM300 - best way to buy a new one?

[Tony]

What's the best (ie the cheapest safe) way to buy a brand new MM300? Is Seiya the way to go?

[Karl]

Always found Higuchi a bit cheaper .

[Tricky tree]

This is the best deal I've seen for the U.K.

You will need to factor 20% vat if buying from Seyia.

Good spot. I hadn't thought to look on Amazon.

Or even here!

Best place to buy, ive found is Gnomon

Come via DHL within 3 working days and mine have all been labelled "timing instrument" and valued at $100 (without asking)

import duty always about £27

So all in, around £1500

Or wait until you buy another then post it on SC.

Still loving the Casio GW5000 i got from you,another of your flippers.

Nice - but it's not an MM300.
MM300 = SBDX017

[steppy]

I'd say wait for Vinstink to sell one and move quick

That's a Tuna 300, not the MM.

Which is confusing, as it says "Marine Master 300" on the dial, I know!

It’s my New Years resolution to keep this one

I brought my Evant Bronze from them, wondered why the customs bill was a grand total of £26.

That's what confused me!

Just PM me when you want to sell it, hate for you to go through the shame of listing it & all the ‘told you so’ comments lol.

Yes the MM300 is JDM.
Yorkshire Watches used to sell them although not showing any stock now.
You can also get them on Amazon....or Chrono24.

Perry is a good guy!

Finally bought one.

Ended up coming from Gnomon. Ordered Sunday, arrived Wednesday.

Thanks for everyone's help.

[vinstink]

ahhhh, just as I was going to list mine too!

Looks good.

What? Another one?

I'm wondering if there's a viable business model in either buying his MM300s and selling them back to him a week later at a healthy profit or just renting the same one out to him two weeks on, two weeks off.

[vinstink]

It was a joke!

Got a few PMs though :D

[Foxy100]

I'm not entirely convinced I believe you. While you're here, fancy discussing a business opportunity (for me)?

This thread reminds me to stop neglecting mine. Such an awesome diver. The rubber bracelet from Crafter Blue is superb by the way and brings useful variety to stave off the need for change for all you serial MM300 flippers!
