I think this is a great watch. Don't why people would be calling it the old man watch smh. I like the sporty watch strap with the white stitching. It's amazing how the straps really changes the watch, being classy to sporty.
Initially, I had similar thoughts. I felt like it was a bit boring but the more I wore it and especially now on a strap, the more I like it. I am glad that I got this. I think it's a keeper!
Love this watch! But I feel that the thickness of it precludes putting a strap on it. It would be nice if Strapcode were to make a Jubilee or a Presidential bracelet with moulded endlinks for it.
Exactly. The watch case looks absurdly tall on anything other than the matching metal braclet. As someone else mentioned, against the leather (or nylon etc.) straps, the watch case sticks up like a chimney. The colour or material doesn't matter - they all have the same effect - the watch looks like a smoke stack. in this case, if you're not happy with the factory bracelet, don't buy the watch.
I've tried all sorts of straps on my Presage and I always go back to the bracelet. The bracelet is so comfortable and looks so streamlined that anything else is a compromise. I do put it on a nato once in a while and the best strap among your choices is the nato : )
I have the non jdm version of this one. I love it and i think the white face dial is the most versatile for strap changing. it can go almost with any color
This watch is the bomb. Fun strap video. My favorite was the cogna croc. Already had this watch at the top of the list for next purchase. It is a classic. Thanks man.
Thanks, Jerry! I love the bracelet but having it on a strap is also REALLY good. Some watches don't do that. Like, I don't like the SARB033 on a strap. Cheers!
Hehe it was you! But It's not a bad thing. As soon as I got it, I had a similar thought. I have it on the beige Dasari right now. I'll probably switch to the blue in a week. As much as I like the bracelet, putting a strap on it completely changed it's "age" for me. I guess that happens with most watches, though. Alohas!
I would try to pick up the blue that is on the dial of the watch. That first sailcloth watch is available with blue stitching and that's what I would go for. Great video, thanks.
The blue shark NATO looks good only thing I don't like is that the watch case is polished and the NATO has brushed keepers and buckle.... btw what is that cricket sound in the background? At first I thought it was my AC but when I paused the video it stop so I knew it wasn't my AC 🤣
It is literally a cricket. This little bastard has been tormenting me for months. I can't find it. It seems to exist within a different dimension yet can bother me through it. I bet it has all my 10mm sockets.
I like that watch and by the way I'm an old man! Ha Ha. It's a great looking watch and it's nice that there are so many strap options with the white dial. It's still too big for my taste I think I'd go for the SARB035 because of the smaller size but you would loose that super sweet Kanji day wheel.
I'm not so young myself. Darned grey hairs! You know, it "feels" smaller with a strap. Just a little. For me, anyway. I have decided to sell a few things and get the SARB035 (as well as the SARY057) do to an epic 4-way comparison. It might take a few months lol. Thanks!
I still would prefer to splurge a little on straps. Since they will be used not just on one watch, they'll be used on every single watch in my collection of the same size 👍🏻✨ But... even so... these are pretty solid recommendations I do love Colareb and Hadley Roma, but HR does sometimes mark up some of their cheap options. StrapsCo is a good solid brand that you can buy for less than 10 bucks for they're leather natos Solid option I think
Thanks, man. You've got a good point. There are a few really epic straps that I have in my wish lists however, I am not ready to spend 100+ dollars on straps just yet. I like affordable stuff. It makes me happy getting something for a low cost that is really good.
minitwatch I can respect that 👍🏻✨. I believe Dasari is made by StrapsCo, or StrapsCo is the official retailer in Canada for Dassari. 🤔I like them, they do have some pretty daring styles, specially the Cartels. Just wish BluShark would have an official Canadian Retailer ( ;-; )
A lil late to the party though that’s nothin new🤪 Nice strap selections! I wear the SARY055 when I’m workin my bar as I don’t wear my luxury pieces cuz between the beer, booze, dishwater, etc., well, this looks nice and I won’t cry if something happens to it, lol. I’ve basically got six straps that I rotate, with three being solid brown, black & tan crocs🐊, with the other three being shell cordovan, in brown, with the white contrasting stitch up at the lugs and then a solid burgundy and a solid lighter brown strap. I wear all on a Seiko signed deployant clasp. As you said, this watch is a strap ho👌🏼 Stay Well🍻 RP
Thanks! Try checking out these 20x18mm clockwork synergy straps: amzn.to/2xxbccr They are 18mm but come out to 20mm outside of the lugs. I have three of them coming in soon and I'm making a video about them.
Have you ever considered an Orient 3 Star? I have one and I really like it! 37mm, fairly thin and surprisingly nice. Here's some on Amazon: amzn.to/2wn5bSK This is the one I have: www.ebay.com/itm/Orient-Watch-3-Star-FEM0401XW-EM0401XW-Mens-Automatic-Watch-Gold-Tri-Star-/252943618719?hash=item3ae49d529f:g:XvkAAOSwCU1YrJr9 They use the old Orient movement hence the pusher but for the price they are pretty darned good!
Every one of those straps was better than the Seiko bracelet. The problem with Seiko is their thickness, though, and with this particular case shape it looks a bit like a chimney on a wrist. That makes it hard to consider as a dress watch. For a sports watch with a conservative twist it needs something strong but not too overwhelming. Considering all that, my favorite was the Dasari Cartel Crockodile Puke. Together it looked sporty but still classy.
Despite it's obvious dimensions, it works very well for me! I didn't really like it at first but It grew on me quickly. I feel it's proportioned well. Still, I wish it was a 40mm with a sub 11mm thickness. I am currently wearing it on the pukestrap! Thanks for your input!
Anyone get to witness the Eclipse? At least partially? We couldn't see anything here. Too many clouds and it happened before sunrise. I don't feel too bad, though. I got to witness the epic Leonids meteor storm of 1999. Or was it 2000? I crave a filet mignon and a glass of Malbec. Mmmmm. One can dream! #random
I have this amazing ninja cricket in my house. I can't find it. I have tried many things! It seems to exist in subspace yet it's chirp can permeate it into ours. It has ruined so many video nights. I mean how long can these things live??
I like dirty puke! The eclipse kinda sucked here, it was happening when I was on my way into work so I pretty much just got to see it get slightly dim out. When you were calling it a sexy girl that Glenn Frey song popped into my head, then you mention Taco, Puttin on the Ritz! Were you trying to trim the tree with the drone? That scumbag thief's channel got deleted :)
Everything I do here is planned. I just don't know that It's being planned. :p Aliens, yo. I was trying to a near miss shot but I instead got a nearly missed shot. The spark handled it like a champ! Or I got lucky. It was probably luck! Yep! I watched youtube slowly delete each video until the system was like "MAN, forget these, DELETE".
What this watch needs is a god damn new dial!!!! Not straps. The steel band it's got is perfect!! Much better look that the fuck ass sarb033 but the 033 dial is much nicer than this shity dial

I enjoyed your twist on the ubiquitous "wrist check". Enjoyable video. Thanks.
This is going to be a new thing :) Thanks for watching!
Watching these vids always make me smile. So fun and enthusiastic about watch straps...the down side is that I end up spending $$ on more straps!
I think that dark blue leather straps really work well with this - contrasts with the face, but still picks up that blue in the hands too.
I've tried all sorts of straps on my Presage and I always go back to the bracelet. The bracelet is so comfortable and looks so streamlined that anything else is a compromise. I do put it on a nato once in a while and the best strap among your choices is the nato : )
I am not going to disagree! However, I do love it on the beige Dasari.
I have the non jdm version of this one. I love it and i think the white face dial is the most versatile for strap changing. it can go almost with any color
Thanks for the heads up on this video. I did not have notifications turned on, but I just fixed that issue.
Great! I should probably make a point to mention the "bell" icon next to subscribe from time to time.
You are absolutely super under appreciated for your videos. You deserve more views.
Hi there. I just received my sary055 yesterday. It's quite lovely in person and I look forward to enjoying it with an assortment of straps.
This watch is the bomb. Fun strap video. My favorite was the cogna croc. Already had this watch at the top of the list for next purchase. It is a classic. Thanks man.
Thanks, Jerry! I love the bracelet but having it on a strap is also REALLY good. Some watches don't do that. Like, I don't like the SARB033 on a strap. Cheers!
White dials can match any strap you want!
Heck yes!!! I used to have an SNKM61 but I gave it to my friend. WHYYY did I do that! Now they are double, sometimes even three times the price!
Thinking of getting the black dial version. Made up my mind! Thanks for the reviews!
It was me.. I called it an old man watch. But it is really really nice and looks great in all those straps. My favourite is the blue strap!
Hehe it was you! But It's not a bad thing. As soon as I got it, I had a similar thought. I have it on the beige Dasari right now. I'll probably switch to the blue in a week. As much as I like the bracelet, putting a strap on it completely changed it's "age" for me. I guess that happens with most watches, though. Alohas!
minitwatch well it is better than the Hanowa Flagship I just got... it has a dive bezel that does not rotate!!! WTF did I just buy!?!?
Wow really? What kinda shit is that??
Old man's watch? That's a dress watch and that's classy! You can dress it down with a nice distressed vintage leather strap :)
Everyone has their opinions, I suppose. I am really liking it on the dirty beige Dasari right now.
hi! i think you must try curved end lug strap,it's can complete the space between lug and case,what do you think?
I would try to pick up the blue that is on the dial of the watch. That first sailcloth watch is available with blue stitching and that's what I would go for. Great video, thanks.
15:40 " hello darkness my old friend....."
coo coo, coocoocoocoocoo, coo coo, coo coo coo coo. lol
Very cool watch, always a fun time watching your videos.
I wouldn't call it an old guy's watch... but it does have that classic feel to it. What if you used the rubber bands as the straps? ;)
Love your channel man.
Thanks Curt. Gotta vote debeers. Power! I own the sary055 and have it on a black leather so this was very helpful mchelpful to see.
Great! Jeremy Clarkson approved! Glad to have helped!

minitwatch 😂🤣 Do I get a prize for guessing the sound? 😜
How about an epic high five of justice? *WHHPSH!* lol
The camel one is a killer!
I also like to live dangerously
It's the one on my wrist right now :)
I like that watch and by the way I'm an old man! Ha Ha. It's a great looking watch and it's nice that there are so many strap options with the white dial. It's still too big for my taste I think I'd go for the SARB035 because of the smaller size but you would loose that super sweet Kanji day wheel.

Solid option I think

Seems like a great watch to wear while watching Matlock, Murder She Wrote, or possibly a Lawrence Welk Show marathon.
Not to mention Golden Girls, Columbo, Quincy then the 10:00 news.
Haha! Man, I forgot about Quincy. But I guess that's what happens when you wear a SARY055.....you forget things.
It'll be nice to see a grey colour alligator leather strap on white dial.
Hmmm. I need to get one.
A glass of Malbec would be perfect
My absolute favorite.
i think you saved the best for last....the blue leather for me....certainly not an old man's watch
Have you done a strap combo video for the seiko alp insist? Would love to see your views.
All straps looked good. This type is super universal. I dont like leather strap on diver watch for example SKX with leather.
A lil late to the party though that’s nothin new🤪
Nice strap selections!

As you said, this watch is a strap ho👌🏼
Stay Well🍻

Is it posible that you can put a jubilee on it?
The blue strap is the best
I can't argue with that :p
Light brown was the best . Most watches with a white face look better with the light brown .
Nice taste! Cool video
Nice video! Can you recommend me a good strap for the Seiko SNK793?
Thanks! Try checking out these 20x18mm clockwork synergy straps: amzn.to/2xxbccr They are 18mm but come out to 20mm outside of the lugs. I have three of them coming in soon and I'm making a video about them.
What's a good dress watch for around £100 which isn't a bambino since I can't find one in uk for good value
Seiko 5, for example the snkl41 (my personal favourite)
Dean Z what's the diameter on that ???
Seiko 5 Snkl23
38mm case
Have you ever considered an Orient 3 Star? I have one and I really like it! 37mm, fairly thin and surprisingly nice. Here's some on Amazon: amzn.to/2wn5bSK
This is the one I have: www.ebay.com/itm/Orient-Watch-3-Star-FEM0401XW-EM0401XW-Mens-Automatic-Watch-Gold-Tri-Star-/252943618719?hash=item3ae49d529f:g:XvkAAOSwCU1YrJr9

5:45 I actually laughed out loud for about a minute
=p =p =p
All looking sweet. No dingle berries allowed lol!! Yes, I want the A1200 video fer sure! :)
It'sa comin', ofd. oooh it'sa comin'!

Caught a bit in SoCal, but I'd love to have seen a meteor storm!
thumbs up for Ronald Jenkees!!!!
Tempting lol but I love the bracelet on this one.
It is very, very shiny and awesome :) Justification: Straps keep bracelets good!
I
I have this amazing ninja cricket in my house. I can't find it. I have tried many things! It seems to exist in subspace yet it's chirp can permeate it into ours. It has ruined so many video nights. I mean how long can these things live??
Also please do a Seiko snk789 review
there is any jubilee bracelet for this watch ?
TE TOCA LOS COJONES Try Strapcode or ewatchparts.com. The regular bracelet is VERY hard to beat👍
Holt333 thanks for your feedback !!
Looks great
Thanks, Dru!
I love old man watches now that I’m an old man.
Man those lugs stick out past every strap you put on it.
I like dirty puke! The eclipse kinda sucked here, it was happening when I was on my way into work so I pretty much just got to see it get slightly dim out.

Or I got lucky. It was probably luck! Yep! I watched youtube slowly delete each video until the system was like "MAN, forget these, DELETE".
What about bracelets?
It may be a bit of an old man's watch, and that's a compliment. Think of what that old man may have worn in his prime.
Did you say: not like your mom's colostomy bag? At 6:47..... That... Takes guts
It takes guts only if his mother has a colostomy bag. Otherwise, it takes only stupidity and the attitude of a 5 year old.
some really nice straps but you wear them way too tight!
I wear them exactly how I like to wear them. I cannot stand loose watches. It drives me absolutely crazy.
Each to their own I guess. it would drive me crazy wearing them so tight.
any way thank you for video
The black leather strap was the only one that looked OK to me, not very strap friendly IMO.
I am absolutely loving it on the biege Dasari right now. Everyone's different!
Really sucks how they made it so big
@Hulk GTI not anymore 😭
What this watch needs is a god damn new dial!!!! Not straps. The steel band it's got is perfect!! Much better look that the fuck ass sarb033 but the 033 dial is much nicer than this shity dial
