Seiko Professional Diver's current production (scans)
Hi Mike,
I believe there are three Seiko Professional Diver's watches currently in production:
1) Marine Master 300m Professional Diver's Automatic (retail 250,000 yen)
2) 300m Professional Diver's Quartz (retail 60,000 yen)
3) 1000m Professional Diver's Quartz (retail 133,000 yen)
All the above watches can be found for about 20% off retail price.
In addition, if you are very lucky you may be able to find the 2000 Historical re-issue of the (1968) Professional 300m Automatic. Only 500 units were produced (retail 200,000 yen).
It is the exact same watch as the Marine Master (case, hands, bezel, strap) except that it has gold highlights instead of the MM's silver ones, it doesn't come with a steel band, and it retails for about $420 LESS than the MM.
