The more I’m looking in this watch, the more I want it. It is becoming my grail watch.. Reminds me of my grandfathers Darwil. I have sarb 035, and I thougt this will be my last watch.. But than, well.. I have only 3 cheap casios.. kids are using them.. And sarb035 wich I’m selling at the moment… I thougt I’ll buy longines conqusest (gold, silver combination watch) And than I saw this beauty.. Some guy on chrono is selling it now.. I offerd him 400 eurs first.. Guy thought I’m spaming hah.. In the end I offerd my max 680 eurs, and he sad 800eur.. Only 120 euros separates me from happiness I mean it’s not expensive for this rare watch, but when you earn 850 eur per month have kids loans.. then it is expensive.. I could offerd him my wife, two kids and mother in law for watch. I think its a good bargen. Haha.. Maann this watch obsession is killing me. It’s just the watch, but then again.. you only live once.. We all love certian things. My brother in law loves cars. I love watches and bicyles. Few yrs ago I sold my renault clio for 350eur and bought bicyle for 450eur.. Wife almost kick me out of the house.. haha Don’t ever sell this watch.. This is the watch that should be in family for future generations..

Wow beautiful watch, thanks for the detailed review and history of this model. You're definitely right the dial has Grand Seiko vibes.

I just put a 20mm Angus-J Louis 316L SS Watch Bracelet from Strap Code on mine and it looks great. A little chunky, but it works! I purchased it back in 2016 for $300 or so and had a leather strap on it to dress it up. It's been mostly sitting in a drawer. Decided maybe a new band would help...

Hey bro you should check out the bulova hack its 38mm. They even have a smaller version thats a blue dial with coin edge bezel.

Beautiful watch ❤❤

This is perhaps the most comfortable watch I've ever worn and is really accurate plus the affordability is phenomenal making it a great watch produced by the Swatch company in Switzerland.

Very meticulous! This is the most comprehensive introduction and comparison of 7L and 10L I have ever seen.

Amazing video! Both amazing camera! Buuut not for their asking price right now in the used market 😅

Thank you for the video and info. The dr martens you have there, are the 1460 bex, (thicker sole). The ordinary 1460 dr martens, has a thinner sole, very similar to the solovair sole. That would of been a better dr martens to compare the solovair to. 🙂👍

Looks classy. I know what you mean with "it shouldn't work but does". 👍🏼

sell me the o35?

My 34mm hand wind movement hacks. My be an issue with that watch

we have same taste, nice video, nice watch

I’ve had great experience with pt5000. The movement isn’t very expensive to just swap. Should be under warrantee though. A little blue locktite will fix the braclet. Your watchmaker should be able to fix. Does it hand wind still?

How much did you pay for it? I want one with the printed dial but I have found these to be “too expensive”, for example there is a Zeno Basel and a Mathew-Tissot similarly priced.

Great video, you have good taste. A few of these are definitely on my watch to consider for my main, every day watch. Did you mean to have the SARB033 twice though?

I had two of the San Martin Explore Climbing watches; both with the turquoise dial and the Sellita movement. The first one had a bent crown stem and a “helicoptering” rotor. I tried to get that fixed by my local watchmaker but then decided to simply return the watch. The second one still had a slightly bent crown stem and a gritty wind. I understand some Sellita’s do wind like that, but I couldn’t abide the bent stem and, again, got rid of it. It’s a real shame because I had no trouble with the bracelet (as many have reported), and the dial and case both seemed to be finished to a very high degree. I do have another San Martin; the red fumé lacquer dial 36mm. The Miyota movement seems to be winding smoothly and ticking away just fine and, again, no issues with the bracelet. So, while one of my three San Martin experiences was positive, that still might not be enough to make me a convert. And it’s likely I just stick with the one.

that is not plexiglass

Which model of seiko are you showing in the video?

Aloha, Do you still considering selling SARB035? Please let me know Thanks

is this still for sale?

I own the GX85/9 and X100VI. Overall, I prefer the GX9. Both bodies have IBIS. Both do video but the GX9 lacks a microphone mic. Both have a tilting screen. The X100VI has Across B&W but the L monochrome D is my favorite B&W jpeg. I also like the vivid color profile on the GX9. The GX9 is smaller and lighter. A major advantage the GX9 has is the ability to use multiple lenses. The PL15 lens is a great choice for street photography. The GX9 is less expensive than the X100VI, even with purchasing a lens or two. GX9 for $4-500 used. Where? Body alone it sells closer to $700. I own two GX9 bodies. I enjoy using the kit 12-60 lens on one body and the PL15 lens on the other. I don’t like changing lenses. Having two bodies provides for backup if one body needs to be repaired. It is about nine years old and I don’t know if any repairs can be done on the body. Both the X100VI and the GX9 are great street shooters. The GX9 is easy to find and the lens choices are wide. In September I found a GX85 for $300. A great price. The X100VI has been hyped by the TikTok crowd. It is on back order. I ordered it the day it was announced and canceled the order after waiting six months and not knowing when the order would be fulfilled. There is a premium to be paid on the secondary market of $5-600. I wouldn’t want to spend $2200 for the X100VI. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

Older sony apsc cameras are so overlooked if people really want this "point and shoot" compactness. A sony a6300/6400 + a pancake lens can achieve that easily for far cheaper nowadays. Not only you get great performance, these cameras are built like a god damn tank with weather sealing

Lumix LX100ii good

I don't agree with you. I will go with the SNXS79J1 MADE IN JAPAN.

Calling the GX9 is somewhat of an insult, but yeah, is a nice portable combo with a good pancake lens.

Fuji x camera output is like living off of vintage state fare food.

I think the best true point an Shoot is any sony rx100 . Right now I have the zv1 as my mini cam great video an photos that actually fits in your pocket

Since when is the gx a point and shoot?

Ricoh Gr is the goat of point and shoots in my opinion. Smaller + retractable lens means it’s truly pocketable. It also have customizable color profiles like all the hype around fujifilm. On top of that its design is truly the most subtle so it’s very often overlooked. The IBIS in it is great too. With features like snap focus and some prior settings tuning I’d say it’s the best setup for street and snapshot photography. Its video is actively bad but these days phone videography is so good it doesn’t matter. Just like you said though you’re getting it for photos not video. Tbh what convinced me is just its portability and ease of throwing in a pocket without thinking about the lens. A camera that’s always on you is better than the greatest camera you only sometimes have

I was going to sale my 035. I have a 30 watch collection. Every time I put it on I change my mind and keep it.

Brother dont sell it. We all have that feeling to sell. But u will miss it once its gone. White dials are rare beauty. Sarb isnt easy to get ever. If you want to sell that wait till it gets a really high amount

Hiya pal, i've just bought this lens and i can feel the autofocus motors working when i press the button. I can't feel anything on my other lens' when i use autofocus with those, is this normal?

Cool watch boss you have instagram?

Great. Thanks

What is your rating? ../10

No such thing as too many watches!😁That SARB035 is beautiful!

My approach to watches is the same as I have for clothes. No matter how good; if I am not going to wear it then I force myself to dispose of them. I have the SARX055 and the only thing I don't like is the 3Hz tick rate. Half of the allure of a mechanical movement is a smooth seconds hand.

I have a SARB035 and absolutely LOVE it. They call sarbs baby Grand Seikos for a reason!! Couldn’t agree with you more how versatile they are. It’s one of my favorites to wear casually and the reflections on the polished indices always bring a smile to my face. I hope to add a 033 and maybe even a 037 to my collection one day!

Being out of the watch loop for a few years, realising that used prizes had gone bananas (for me it will always be a $300 watch, because that's simply want they cost back in the day, too good a deal or not, I don't care), I went with a used SARX035 instead (much better bracelet and diashield is fantastic). But I find myself reaching for my SRPE57K1 (part of the DresSKX line-up, black dial with gold accents) more often, it has more charm and personality.

Hamilton Jazzmaster. Better watch and Swiss to boot!

I had the SARB033 but it was far too small and the 6R movement is not good so I sold it. I've since bought both a SARY057 and a SARY055 (black and white dials) for the price I sold the one SARB and they are so much better. Better size, better bracelet and a better movement in my opinion. I could not be happier 👨🏻‍🦲👌🏻

Comment to the video from Wotancraft: “The new fabric actually has a better (double) water-resistant score when compared to our previous Cordura. And the new Dualcoat Fabric black version is not waxed, making the color pure black instead of the Cordura version with white wax scuff marks showing on the surface” So essentially its better than cordura. In my experience i have worn it in the rain, and never had a problem with it!

I have the SARX055, similar to the Sarbs. They all exude pure class! The only downside is, as mentioned, a 3 Hz movement.

Just yesterday I picked a SARB033 in good condition on ebay for $485 and well worth it

Seiko are not like they use to be. Lower quality for more money😮
