saw this before.
in real life it looks quite fugly, the dial somehow looks unbalanced due to the over-sized block indices, and maybe combination with those blocky hour / min hands.
the case profile is also pretty flat, and has just a slightly longer lug to lug than the mm300...so cant say it will wear any more comfortable.
the only thing it really has going for it apart from being a unique homage, is its use of the ne15 / 6r15 movement and price.
then again, at its price can also get a steinhart :P

Go googling Anko watch, then you will get to its official website. You got to email them for the price by yourself then.

IIRC it was around RM2.1k at 4.3 Forex. It was in collaboration with Seiko Club Spain, and stocks are at tail-end. Worth the buy, methinks. Check out the comparo with MM300 from its owners :

Don't know how I feel about the design on the caseback, though. Seems pretty amateurish? Just my opinion.
