I bought the Sarb035 about 8 years ago and it quickly became my favorite watches….simply stunning. I actually never wore it on the bracelet but had a dozen or so different straps (leather, fabric, rubber). It is a strap Monster! I gave it to my son last summer so he would have to wear at work and other events where he needed a truly classic watch. However, I missed it so much, I recently bought it back from a Japanese collector in near mint condition. I’m in heaven having it on my wrist again! Thanks for the great review

The best review of the SARB035 I have seen. It finally convinced me to get one while they are still around. Keep up the good work!

Still available new on Amazon in Nov 2020, $425 or £350 including import duties. I bought one for my birthday, lovely watch, running at +1.6 per day. Very comfy worn on a silicon strap and very classy on leather. Total strap monster with understated elegance. Get one while you can folks. Thanks for vid.

Late to the party but I pulled the trigger after watching this video. I'm wearing mine one right now as I'm typing and I got to say the watch is really something else. Hoping to wear this one until I pass it on to my son when he grows up. More power to you and thank you for this video.

And you were right! Happy I picked mine up around this time. I leave it on black or brown leather to dress it up, nice to see and remember how well it does on other strap options. Might need to mess around with it!

This was my first decent automatic. My first automatic I bought literally days before the Sarb035 and it was a Seiko 5 similar to the one you showed in this video. The Sarb is an incredible watch and has a good weight to it. I got mine new for $293 in 2015. That was the era for buying with Seiko because now all their prices for similar models are a lot more. Sapphire, solid end links, forged clasp, 6R movement for less than $300 at the time... the golden days.

Totally agree! I have the Sarb035 as well as a some introductory luxury swiss pieces and I gotta say...i miss the Sarb when I dont wear it!!

Good video! I bought this watch two years ago, right before prices started to climb. Paid $300 (brand new) and feel lucky that I did. Many have commented on the cream dial and at first, that was what held me back. But, I knew the 035 was discontinued and figured it was something I could live with. Turned out that I love the cream dial. I originally preferred a pure white or snow white dial to better complement the stainless steel. I didn't think I'd like the cream dial as much as I did. Man, I love it. There's a warmth to it that makes it feel more luxurious. I am so glad I picked it up when I did. It is my only white-dial watch, bit one of my favorites in my very small collection. Congrats, on showing the 035 some love. The 033 gets all of the attention.

Got mine new early 2019, for 350. The SARB035. It took me 2 months to appreciate it and like it for what it is. I really love that watch since then. The bracelet is a matter of luck, mine doesn't fit me well neither, It's a good looking bracelet but not as much as Uncle Seiko's options I think. Albeit, it's out of stock half of the time. Very good on leather too. The spring bars though, are weird. They're bent at the tips, it's supposedly stronger that way, but clearly, that wasn't my experience with it.

Player: if you're still young and money is scarce, think about it this way: You could spend more on a watch like this and possibly get years of wear out of it. OR it could be a casualty of youthful indescretion & recklessness (ie gets lost, etc). OR, you could start a VERY RESPECTABLE collection with automatics like the Orient Mako 2 or Ray 2, Kamasu, the Seiko 5 series (💛 my SPRD & they're very mod-able), those Citizen field watches are great, throw in a classic G-shock DW 5600. That's a whole collection of admittedly cheaper but still very high quality & respected watches. Very wearable also. You'd have a bit more leeway if something bad happened to any one of them. Plus its just fun to have more of something you like. Happy collecting, boss. Wear it/them well.

I like your rationale on buying and its great that you're really enjoying the watch. The watch itself didn't sell me though. Maybe its better in person. This does bring up something I would like to see explored. An example, when I was a kid my dad wanted to buy me a Model 94 Winchester 22 for Christmas. The first time the Model 94 was offered in 22 caliber. They were going for about $94 dollars but he was cheap and we found one for $79 right before Christmas. Looking back we should have bought every one on the shelf. I still have it and it would probably bring a cool grand. So I get the feeling watches are like that. I've been watching old videos of the Seiko SNKs and everyone's talking about picking them up for $60 bucks. They're over $100 now on Amazon and the used ones are getting bid up to just under retail on Ebay. I don't know watches well enough to spot big winners that are going to be coveted even more on down the line, but I do know when people are passionate about something there are going to be those winners. (Wouldn't you have liked to have a dime in your pocket in 1962 when Spiderman #1 was on the rack?) Someone who's really in to watches though is going to be able to spot that.

💯 Nice post. And "yes" about the dime. I had an old Winchester .22 youth rifle, model unknown (single shot bolt with a weird pull-out safety) that had sort of unorthodox sights - a V in the back and a dot in front. I was much more accustomed to blade/flat front/back sights. However, once you got used to putting the dot in the point of the V, you could cut thread with that little rifle. Shoot the wings off a fly, lol. Yes, I wish I still had it.

I have the 033 and love it. The case design is unique and gorgeous. I always wear it on leather because of the large gap between the bracelet and the clasp. I did however hate the glare from the crystal so I changed it to a double domed sapphire crystal I am so very happy I did. Until I changed the crystal I had no idea the dial so beautiful. It has a glossy enamel look to it. Oh and one more thing is it is not black. The color is a deep deep dark brown. I liken the color to an oily fresh coffee bean. Gorgeous.

I have a decent amount of wear and there’s no battling that. Still a great watch. I’ve been lucky on the bracelet. It fits me well because of the range I need it in I’ve never had a problem, but I realize how some have had the issue with only two micro adjusts. Everyone talks about how this is such a strap monster, but I think this is the biggest thing I’ve disagreed with yet. It just feels wrong off the bracelet for me. It seems like on every strap the watch actually wears smaller. It does look great on other straps in everyone else’s pictures, but for some reason not on my wrist.

Run through the Amazon comments and Ebay comments, and without fail there will always be a group of disgruntled watch buyers who lost their money directly in the purchase price, and in the ping-pong of postage costs, or the indirect aggravation of wasted time and repair costs. It's about time the manufacturer took some responsibility on used watches. I'm not prepared to spend $300 on a watch with the same risk one plays Black or Red at the casino.

It definitely can be a crapshoot. If I'm buying used on eBay, I try to only find sellers from North America (where I live) that have very high ratings. I've been burned once (crystal fog on my SNZH), but had a positive experience buying both my SARB035 and G-Shock used.

Finally, I am not the only one who thought it was skeleton hands......

Thanks for the tip

Another weak point I would add (after several years of use) is low acuracy.

Cheap...quality medium for the price seiko 1st price....not too bad

It is the best watch designed by Seiko. No Grand Seiko surpasses it in design, it is the watch with the best value for money. It is an icon, a jewel, it is the assassin of the Rolex date just. His problem is the bracelet, which I changed immediately, everything else is perfect.

When I stoped cutting the top in March 2020 when we started to quarantine, I figured I might as well have some fun with it since nobody would really see me but here I am making KZread videos so 🤷‍♂️ 😂

Don't complain about the micro adjustment. Pay a few grand for a Grand Seiko, guess what? You don't even get a single micro adjustment! :)

Right!? Honestly it's one of the factors that's kept me from adding some to my grail wishlist

Stop complaining about your "only one" microadjustement bracelet, I just bought a Grand Seiko and I have a glorious ZERO microadjustement holes for 6700€.
