I'm listing a few more new/upcoming models from Seiko. I'm not posting much info here beside model numbers and images but if you look up any that might interest you, feel free to post more details. There are also plenty of other Seiko and Grand Seiko already out or coming soon but this is at least a sampling.

I cannot predict the future, but I'll refund the purchase price of anyone who buys this and can't make money on it after wearing it a while and selling it second hand after it's discontinued. People go nuts for panda seikos.

Even if it's a quartz?

SZSJ005 8T67-00J0 quartz chronograph

This looks to be a 40mm case, $250 USD and uses Seiko's 8T67 movement. Anyone order from magaseek.com before?

I haven't heard of magaseek before. It appears magaseek is the selling platform and Nano Universe is the seller. Off the top of my head I can't remember if you're an experienced Rakuten Global Market guy. If so, you might try the link below where they are listed for $227.33 and you can get 20% back in points. You'll have to change your SHIP TO option to Japan and use RGX though, which isn't free.

Yes. The last one I remember is the SNDFs released a few years ago. They are like $300 now. Even panda 7t32s from the early 2000s are usually up over $100.

Thanks! I've never shopped on RGM, and never used a forwarder. The RGX fee calculator estimated $13, which seems reasonable to send something to the other side of the world.

Ordered one - let’s see what shipping comes out to be. Also seems like these are pre-orders at this point.

One store said it was expected to ship at the end of March. I suspect I'll forget I ordered this and be pleasantly surprised when a watch shows up sometime in April
