The MM is better than the Rolex. Last year I had a Rolex Seadweller. I loved the watch, but could not justify the cost. I traded it after about 6 months and went through several watches, including two (2) Speedy pro's, an Omega Planet Ocean and the MM. I traded the MM for a Doxa Carribean and recently managed to buy another one. IMHO, it's lume and bracelet is far superior to the Rolex product. The accuracy is also better

You probably didn't know this, but the movement in the Marinemaster has some very unique technical aspects and it's based on and designed by some of the best movements ever created.
Back in the late 1960's, early 1970's, Seiko engineers were designing movements that were beating the best that the Swiss (including Rolex and Omega) could produce in international chronometer competitions. This is a fact. To go further, the Swiss were so fed up by the Japanese dominance that they eventually excluded them from competition. They didn't like to be beat.
The design of the 8L35 movement doesn't have a Breguet Overcoil but it does have a sophisticated arrangement (to acheive the same results) with the balance setup based on something called a Lossier curve. It provides very good isochronism and stability of rate. To the best of my knowledge, this system has only been used in the past on some vintage high grade chronometer movements and no one, save Seiko uses it today. It's unique and expensive to produce.
Seiko also has developed a very user friendly way to adjust the curb pins in adjusting amplitude.
Additionally, many well respected watchmakers, some who visit TZ and who are held in extremely high regard within the TZ community have commented on the automatic winding system calling it the simplest and most ingenious method out there.
People who know movements and work on them for a living have always had high praise for Seiko's high end offerings. Also, some of the most respected watch collectors in the world, including a super high profile Rolex collector, are also avid Seiko collectors.
I could go on and on about Seiko, their movements and their dive watch history, but I don't want to bore everyone. There you go, I said it all and I still have on a straight face.
Most people don't know about any of this because for the past 40 years, Seiko just quietly puts their energies into building outstanding high end products rather than creating marketing hype. It's as simple as that. [/i]

specs:
The movement is an 8L35, an undecorated and unadjusted version of the high-end Grand Seiko 9S55. Rhodium-plated, 26 jewels, automatic, 28800vph (4Hz), handwind and hacking, 50 hour power reserve. The size of the balance wheel was increased to provide the torque required, as the hands are heavier than a dress watch. The 8L35 is also used in the Landmaster, which has the same hands.The movement by all accounts keeps excellent time, and in 9S55 trim is capable of exceeding COSC specs. Anecdotal reports on various fora indicate less than five seconds’ daily error is typical. The spec is -10 to +15 seconds per day.The 8L35 is completely in-house Seiko, and is descended from the 6159 300m diver, circa 1969. Everything from oil on up, including mainspring, is Seiko.
