My SJE 117 is running +6 SPD; not too far off my METAS Planet Ocean at +3.... Not sure how much more accuracy you would like to see unless you mean the large stated accuracy window?
Don't get me wrong. My SPB143 runs well beyond specs, as well, but I still feel at this price you should have a stronger guarantee. That's all. Thank for the feedback!
All the people complaining about the small little details still wouldnt purchase if corrected just for them, it would be another excuse not to buy. Just say, " I cant afford it"😂
I really really like this watch. My only issue is with the price. Here in the UK, it's £3k. If you shop around, you can pick one up for £2.5k but that's still too much for a Seiko diver. If it was £1500, I'd take one
My dislike of the date window is fading as it's not super noticeable at first glance. But I am definitely on the "a MarineMaster has to have 300m WR" camp. Nice review!
@@Andy-ys8sj they are the stats that seiko give so if you get one that is +14 they will not do anything about it. Seiko need to have the confidence in their own products.
Seiko got the memo that we want properly sized 62 MAS watches. But they seem to be having an identity crisis as to whether they're a luxury brand. They could make an absolute killing if they made a 5 series 62MAS. As it stands, they need to alter the originally brilliant design just a little bit in order to justify price points and not cannibalize their own sales. The result? I'll keep my Seestern homage with its Seiko movement. If Fender don't make a vintage spec Jaguar, I'll keep playing the Tokai lawsuit guitar.
Getting a bit boring with how they seem to spend most their energy on homaging their old existing designs, doing small bin part changes to their lineup and hiking the prices.
@TheCalibratedWrist I'm gonna buy this beauty end of this month 🤞 I had bb58 last year but sell it because date is must for mee and bb58 was little to boring 😒I saw this marinemaster on AD it's a beauty of finishing this right here gonna be collectable on future 🤌
I have to agree. Most of the Seiko divers over $2000 should be priced around the $1000 mark. Seiko just doesn't make a high quality watch anymore, and they still charge Omega prices for Citizen-level watches
@PocketUau Ouch! Seiko openly expressed, around the time they released the Presage line, that it was their intention to move upmarket, they have since expressed their continued dedication to this effort and I do remember there being an attitude of disdain for being known as a king of budget watches. Dumb move alienating the customer base that you establish yourself upon, this doesn't work for any company in any industry.
COSC certification is only available to Swiss made watches.
Yeah, sorry. That was an editing error in the template. If you watch to the end, you will see/hear differently. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, lol. Probably right. Cheers!
Well edited, well spoken, it's a good start.
Thanks for that!
Nice work Robi. Have yet to see one in person but I like the look.
Cheers, buddy. I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
Love my 100th anniversary edition.
That's a beautiful piece
Marinemaster with only 200m WR ? Are you serious Seiko ? Love my Tunas, Sbdx017... Real MM.
👋🇨🇵
The name is a bit of a misnomer
All dat MAMACOO watches sssssoooooooo gorgeous！

Yes, that seems to be the general complaint. And I can't say that I disagree entirely, either. Love the looks...not the price. Cheers!

Cheers, Ian. I love the look, but, as you say, there are a few pieces missing.
Why? the original Marinemaster was 200m

@@TheCalibratedWristAny Chance to get an Info on the strap in the Thumbnail?
Loving my 2024 MM 300
It stops me every time I see an image on IG. Congrats!
Question: what is the strap on the thumbnail? It really fits the watch!
It's from Avel and Men: SEAQUAL Port Louis
@@TheCalibratedWrist grazie 🙏
This is a fantastic watch
I'm glad you think so! Thanks for dropping in!
Great video! Love thia watch. Is this watch with thick or regular spring bars?
They use the thicker Seiko bars
$2800 is way too much! Check out the spb147
I own the 147. One of my favourite pieces
watch should be $1000
I do believe, as well, that it is overpriced. Thanks for the feedback
Another great video 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you 🙌
A Marine Master should be a mono block. It's a cash grab using the name
I agree about the name. Thanks for the feedback!
It looks much good. Muito bom 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Seiko hasn't increased the prices just for the sake of inflation. You can tell the finish on this model is top notch.
Up close, it is definitely a cut above what people have come to expect from Seiko
Don’t like crystal back. Prefer stainless steel. Good video though.
Thanks. And I also prefer a solid back on a diver👊
Just to add a correction, this is not cosc, it is +15/-10 spd which is not acceptable at nearly 3k.
Sorry. That slipped through editing😉
The movement in this is way better than the stats you have given, I'd bet its three to four seconds a day, as it was put in old gs

A bit weird that a MarinaMaster only has 200m WR, But not a bad looking watch; instead, its beautiful.
I agree with both comments

Fair enough 👊
Don't we have enough watches that look like this already? 😂😂😂
Certainly capitalizing on their own trend😉
I like it a lot, but I can get an Oris Diver's 65 with IMHO a better movement, on a better bracelet, for less money.
This is quite true
I'd still take this Seiko! Better case, better dial, better looking and great finish would be why
@@expertreviews1112 Honestly, I'd take both!
nice watch
Thanks for watching
You cant even find this watch in tokyo. Yodobashi doesnt even have them.
Crazy!
Awesome
Thanks😉
A real MM goes 300m
Fair enough!
How much? For a seiko lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm not sure that I would say this about Seiko as a blanket statement. But I do think this one carries a hefty tag. Thanks for the feedback!
A big miss for me. That clasp is horrible. For this money? HaHa!
Fair enough! Thanks for the feedback
No date...... No way!

When sales begin to flag, they will change their tune...but people are still lining up to buy them

Junk
Fair enough. Thanks for the feedback
I’ll do just fine with my NH35-powered San Martin for $180. Seiko thinks its name is worth a significant premium. I disagree.
Understood. There's a world of more affordable options👊
