Any sifu can shed some lights about Seiko kinetic direct drive watch? Thanks.

Its look seems very nice and high end and it has the handwind feature!?!

Good watch, but rather expensive la.

Works like the standard Seiko Kinetics with improvements.

AFAIK, the capacitors on these kinetics last longer than the older versions.

Hi @JeepWH  bro. Thanks for advising.

Yes, kinetic capacitor is a problem.
That's why I don't buy any kinetic watch.
I have 1 Eco-Drive and 2 quartz watches. I was planning to get a nice looking and sporty outdoor kinetic watch to complete my collection. This direct drive seems unique, I will check it out see if it meets my expectations.

Hey guys, sorry to hijack this thread. Just would like to check with Seiko marine master 300 owner.
Noticed that in "seiya" webpage, there is a remark about MM300 stated as below.
NOTE:
""The chapter ring and index & bezel index and face index not being aligned perfectly.
In general, Seiko's screw down crowns are not smooth as Swiss manufactures""

Is the statement correct and true?  ???

My Seiko baby tuna say "hi"  ;D


My MM300 SBDX017 that I bought from Malaysia AD totally doesn't have your above-mentioned issues.

Generally the watch looks perfect with the naked eye. However under magnification there are some (very) slight misalignment.

I have these black Seiko for about 9 years. Back then I just thought it was cool having a black stainless steel watch and my first mechanical watch.

Little did I know that today, this watch is selling above what I paid back in 2007....lol..
