*NOTE* I've seen some concern online about the 6L37 movement having a 2-3 year service interval. Do you know what other movement has a 2-3 year service interval? EVERY 4R/NH movement. Seiko recommends servicing their watches every 2-3 years as a blanket conservative estimate.

It’s really sharp and, for a a Marinemaster, very unexpected in its design. I really like it, and I like its specs. The lume is awesome, and the textured dial face draws me in. I, too would have preferred a closed case back. The bracelet looks great! I agree with your first impressions.

I thought it interesting you said you found your SPB143 terribly boring. I've personally been into watches for about 10 yrs now, and I own the SPB147 & SPB213 and love them! The comfort, fit, and style are perfect for me. In fact I've worn them more than any other watch I own the past 2 years. But like you said in another comment, the world would be a boring place if we all liked the same thing. Good video, thanks 👍

Uguale anche per me , possiedo alcuni orologi sia svizzeri che Seiko. Ho preso da circa un mese il SPB147 a un buon prezzo nuovo. Devo dire che quando lo indosso mi è difficile toglierlo dal polso, non so perché ma è così, trovo poi difficile fare fare il giro al polso agli altri orologi che possiedo. Su Seiko si può dire di tutto compreso che alle volte i loro calibro non sono ben bilanciati e precisi,e poco controllo qualità sui calibri, ma come estetica ed appeal sono sopra a tutte le altre marche di orologi, ovviamente secondo me.

I love the new MM. I got the limited edition version. It’s my favorite Seiko yet. My only criticism is the super little round date window with the really small date numbers and probably should’ve been rated for 300m.

I believe we may have found a new sub-nickname for this MM. The “MarineMaster ZFG” ??! ;-P Congrats on giving it an unforgettable name ! Btw I just saw all three variants at the store. I echo your observations; taken at face value, These things are just gorgeous. Difficult for me to pick my favorite. But If I put on my own ZFG helmet, and tug on the chinstrap tightly, I would probably go for the blue one (and it’s actually not cuz the blue dial, but moreso for the handsomeness of that blue bezel …)

Great watch, it has it's drawbacks sure, a bit pricey for what it is too but I can't help obsess over it for some reason. It just feels like a quintessential Seiko watch. We're all about maximizing our money for the value offering, but in a hobby like this, sometimes the emotion it invokes while abstract, is enough to warrant a consideration to help justify the purchase.

The bezel is shiny, probably ceramic?

Very nice pickup--I've been waiting to see the black dial variant, as I think this colorway is the strongest in the lineup. Why must Seiko insist on ruining their typically amazing dials with a date window? I know it's early days for you with this piece, but how's the accuracy on the 6L37? I've been eyeing the SPB Willard again recently, but what I've read and seen on the 6R35's functionality and timekeeping is generally abysmal.
