Greetings ΩF! As my first sales post to the forum, I offer my Limited Edition of 1968 Seiko Marinemaster/Prospex SLA019 “Yakushima” - please, no trades at this time. This example is in excellent, almost like-new condition and is running great. All original packaging, booklets, warranty card, boxes and hangtags are included. Purchased, new, by me, from Topper Jewelers in July of last year and worn (very) sparingly in rotation with my other watches. This MM300 LE was not a daily wearer, in fact, this watch has only been worn about a dozen times out of the house. Warranty card is stamped and dated July 2018 and remains effective (in the US) through July 2021. The Seiko SLA019 is powered by the 8L35 automatic with 26 jewels and beats at 28,800 BPH. This movement is an undecorated version of the Grand Seiko 9S55, assembled in the same workshop as the GS movements and is an amazing timekeeper. This Limited Edition also is the first Marinemaster to have a luminous ceramic bezel (Zirconia), and a sapphire crystal.
