First I think it is important to point out that this is exactly the same watch as the Orient Star model, made in the same factory by the same people with the same parts. The only difference is the dial print makes it an export model! At 45.5mm across and 17mm thick this is an SKX007 On Steroids in the best way possible. 5mm of AR coated sapphire keep the water away from a perfect dial and a wide tight 60 click bezel complete the high visibility face of the watch! Their is nothing else in Seiko's or Orient's model line that can compare to the lume on this watch, it is simply the best and brightest there is period. This is one of those great watches that you know buys you membership into a private club that only another member can appreciate. It's an expensive watch but absolutely worth every penny! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() here's a few more taken with the new d300 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited on Sun Apr 20th, 2008 05:08 pm by OldeCrow |

Great pickup and I can absolutely agree with the comment about the "exclusive club" - I have the yellow dial 300m and you really need to own one to understand what a great piece it is, and how the lack of features such as hacking and handwinding are not detractors at all. And yes, best lume of any watch I've ever seen.

Thanks guys! I thought it was going to be just another watch and I really didn't realize how big it was going to be either! I probably wouldn't have bought it but a fellow wis just called me and said check your mail you owe me xxxx dollars... I actually feel really bad for dismising this watch because of it's cost, it really is amazing... I've got the "perma-grins" and I haven't been smoking anything ! I will try to get some better glamour shots of it if winter ever ends and I can get outside with it! Last edited on Sat Apr 19th, 2008 08:51 pm by OldeCrow |
