I feel your pain, I really struggled to get mine on, too, it just wouldn't do the final click into place. I read somewhere to put it between 2 thickish books then stand on it. I thought that was someone being reeeeeaally facetious trying to sucker people into breaking their watch. I was soooo annoyed at it by now (and myself for not buying a press) that I followed the advice... and it worked! Phew! If only I had have just done it an hour earlier my blood pressure would have stayed at normal levels.Originally Posted by enndriz
I'm enjoying this so much more than the SARB017 I used to have.
Swapped out the horrible bracelet for something more in keeping I think..

New arrival today :-) love it. I think I prefer this to the 7549-7010 that I had.
SPB147- Swapped the black silicon OEM with a cream and black NATO. The brown dial really goes with the cream/ beige.
Also have a olive green leather for it too. Will try later.

Love the MM200 models on the MM300 waffle straps. It's a shame the newer SLA versions of the MM300 don't come with them anymore as two of them cost me about £115! My SPB079 MM200 is on one of them.
Yeah I like the look too, I justified it by going cheaper that lots of other straps!
The watched arrived and now got a spare waffle strap too!
So been wearing this now for rest of the day

Thanks mate! This is a bit of a strap monster so experimenting with different straps.

New on the wrist today, and loving it.
SLA023J1 - MM300.
Nice! What’s the blue dial like compared to Great Blue Hole?New on the wrist today, and loving it.
SLA023J1 - MM300.
Ooooooh, good question.
I would say that the MM300 is more blue in bright light, which means that it gives a wider variance in colour from bright blue, all the way to black in poor light.
Bought this crazy 1974 seiko Advan for the wife for Christmas. Luckily she likes it I’m not sure I could of carried it off myself.

Lovely! Looks so goodNew on the wrist today, and loving it.
SLA023J1 - MM300.
This is on my list to get in there new year! I’m hoping there is some deals on it in the jan sales!
Tempted to part with by blue hole to help fund one of these
MM300 for me today as well, even used the bezel to time the spuds

Cheers Andrew,
Maybe controversial, but how do you think it would look with a black bezel insert?
These pictures are making me want another SLA MM300. Such nice watches.
An interesting thought.
I think that the watch could carry it off, but I wouldn’t...
1. The watch looks stunning as it is
2. The bezel and dial presently change colour equally beautifully
This watch ceases to amaze me at the variance of blues it goes through.
Today is dull, but the watch is presently a lovely deep blue, and the lume is still easily visible in daylight
My new Seiko SLA021J1
Merry Christmasand a happy new year to you all.

Merry Christmas

I was wearing this yesterday, love this strap.
New Seiko arrived from Santa! Love it!

This thread is only increasing my want for a SKX013! Not many floating around these days :(
I've been considering this aswell as the spb143, cant decide between two. I normally avoid anything with gold on the dial but this is very temptingNew Seiko arrived from Santa! Love it!

SLA021 again
... back on NATO.
Interesting how sometimes the black dial version is similar to the blue dial version SLA023!

Two new arrivals today.
The 7549 was absolutely filthy. It had never been cleaned after 40 years. I gave it 2-3 hours of TLC including a rare NOS crystal and it belies it's age.
The SPB183 is very impressive.

The Tuna is delightful.
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
Thanks guys.
It was a bit tired on arrival. The second hand not hitting it's markers was an issue that's now sorted. :-)
The bezel was a bit off due to play with the original worn bezel gasket. It aligned perfectly with the new bezel gasket fitted.
