Most neglected Seiko?

With the number of "limited editions" Seiko is pumping out these days, why doesn't the 300M tuna get any love from corporate? In fact, this PADI version is the only 300M I was able to find.

What are the chances Seiko actually make another special version for the 100th anniversary? I don't even care if it will be a limited edition I just want to see my favorite Seiko model in an interesting color that is not plain black or blue.

I am a Seiko Marinemaster 300m fanatic AND a Marinemaster Tuna lover. This watch is a hunk of beautiful metal 😍! I hope Seiko cranks out a Limited Addition as they seem to have no limit to the number of Limited Additions in the catalog. That said, this watch has the look, style, solar power, professional dive community cred and price tag that grabs most consumers. IMO new collectors never get to seed the Tuna addiction because this watch is a Tuna Killer Nope, fit and finish is not close.

Not quite 300, but I find the relatively unqiue Seiko Prospex Solar Lowercase Fieldmaster (that's a name eh 😆), to be fun to wear.

Been debating ordering a Yobokies metal shroud for it, just haven't pulled the trigger yet.

I have bought one from yobokies, since he is the only one who builds for mini solar tuna.

Possibly Righttime Watches in Denver : ask for Monica Barrett A 30 plus year Seiko AD with a large pre-owned inventory. Also Chrono24

I know - they made pretty much the perfect Tuna the S23629J1/SBBN045 and then discontinued it after like a year or two! Wish I’d picked one up

That is a nice tuna. I have a kinetic tuna and a chronograph with a similarly unique case and I plan on adding a digital fieldmaster to my collection.

Wait this one is discontinued??? Doesn't that mean there isn't actually a 300m quartz tuna model in production? 🤯
