This was posted over at WUS. There's only one "good" photo....and that's of the SBDX014...the rest are from a Japanese catalog that's supposedly hush-hush until the official release date. I have no idea what the prices will be....BTW...the SBDX014 is bronze....not gold.    |

Am I the only who is left completely cold by the hand sets? With you. But check out SBEX001, the one that looks like a new version of the Marinemaster / 6159. The dial, it's a 6309-704x layout. Isn't that interesting. |

Isn't that interesting. They have .... " Heard the cry of many in bringing back ", traces of ....... " Some of their Legendary Pieces " no doubt.

Looking forward to more details on this one. Fatter case, and what looks like a wider insert. I sure wish Seiko would come out with a new affordable main-line diver, rather than these high-end boutique pieces. |

I might as well pile on by saying those prices are ridiculous. But then again, Ive always has a problem with the prices for their quatrz offerings in their current line-up. Just shows my ignorance I guess. |

Have to wonder if they are paying Canadian Tire royalties for their logo at 12 o'clock  |

6500.00 USD seems super high. I am hoping it is inflated prices for now. I can't see getting one at that high price.
