Hello, I thought I would contribute to the community by posting a photo of my Sarb033.

The watch comes in a great size, with decent finishing, water resistance, and power reserve. And even with a few drawbacks like the lack of micro-adjustments in the clasp and lack of AR coating in the crystal, I think you can't go wrong with this watch if you're looking at a great overall daily wearer - especially if you can get it at a decent price.

Always been a fan of the SARB lineup. Beautiful watch!

Thanks! It really is (was?) popular for a reason.

They definitely borrowed from the Grand Seiko design language a bit for these, which is why they were such a hit.

I know some GS fans hate how that look filtered down the feeding chain a bit, but as a regular Seiko enjoyer, I’m not at all complaining lol.

Wow nice picture! What's your technique? Did you still use your phone?

Hey thanks! Unfortunately, it's just portrait mode from Pixel 3A. 😅

Of course it's a pixel lol. My 3XL always had a great camera.

Pixels are great! I can use it for years and use the money I save to buy watches. Lol

I feel like Seiko's sharp edge series has come to replace the discontinued sarb series. If you can't find one of these for less than $500 or $600 it's probably worth looking over at those instead, yeah?
