        When did they decide to print "Marinemaster" on the dial again?

        You're it.

          I miss the good old Seiko days when the SBDX001 was their aspirational diver and I could only afford a poor man's Marine Master Mod from Rob of Monsterwatches.nl

          You're it.

            I saw this in Japan recently. It's definitely a step towards the real deal despite the twitter logo.

            My prediction (with no knowledge) is that within one, at worst two years, they will remove the prospex logo. They are currently cutting their nose to spite their face and at some point management will stop this. This watch is an icon and having some numpty marketing on the face is a travesty.

            Mind the price is now 35 to 40% more than the original, which is getting into Grand Seiko territory.

            However, I would take this any day over a submawanker.

                @Giles the SLGA015 has a black version of that dial, which I think looks better.

                Hopefully they'll offer the new model in that colourway in the near future.

                  @Graeme Love textured dials, and this blue one looks like waves out in the ocean. I'd wear that in a heartbeat. I appreciate the subtle way it gets darker on the edges too. Attention to detail is great!

                  The above comment should be read with all the levity your current metal state will allow.

                    @Go-For-Chill the dial might look better in the metal than in photos too.

                    I still prefer the black textured dial to the blue and green though.

                      Yeah, and for the avoidance of doubt, I am not against textured logos, my OGL and GS Skyflake have them, but I cant be doing with the garishness. I cant be doing with the Omega Seamaster dial either.....

                        Sadly the tide graph works for most of the UK but not for the Solent, I may have to buy another watch if I want to get the double tide 😂
