this is probably the best watch video i've seen on youtube. very objective, informative, descriptive, with rich footage of the watch on diverse situations. i'm considering buying a sarb and this video was just perfect. this video series was a great idea, congratulations. subscribed and notifications up.
WatchGecko I have issues switching out the bracelet on the sarb. Can you suggest the right tools with a purchase link that will make it easier? Thanks!
I've had the sarb035 for almost 2 months now and I absolutely adore it, with a chocolate brown strap it exudes a coffee and cream kinda vibe. First mechanical watch and have no regrets whatsoever. One of the reasons I brought it was reading the artical you guys wrote on it so thanks!
ive had mine for 2 years now. Couldnt have picked a better watch for every day use. This review forgot to mention some of the best aspects about it, such as the sapphire crystal and the 100m water resistance. This watch works well at the office, in a suit, or at the gym.
Still available for under US$400 (Dec 2019), which could be the last ever genuine Seiko bargain. Equivalent quality is at least twice the price. A classic, beautiful timepiece.
desert knight s the main seller on amazon at those prices is amazon itself (.com and .jp) who receive the watches directly from Seiko. Of course, cannot speak for Amazon marketplace sellers or eBay sellers. At Amazon Japan, Sarb 033/035/017 all available at around US$350.
@@wallstreetgoats5646 As I said previously, Amazon is definitely legit if the seller is Amazon itself. I don’t think you will find those SARB models for under $400 now though!
My favorite watch. I have it dressed up for a night out on the "Exotic" slim Italian strap, black with croc finish. I'd love to see a strap fashion show for this watch as I'm looking for more casual options.
Can you guys please offer this bracelet in either all brushed, or with a polished center link that integrates with the stock SARB end link? Having to use the brushed SARB center link to connect the watch to the polished bracelet doesn’t look as good as if everything was properly uniform.
Damn that Kirkland bracelet looks good! Might have to get me one of those.. Do you sell any bracelets for the sarb065? I'm looking for a bracelet for mine but to my understanding the only bracelets I've found for sale for the newer presage cocktail time, do not fit the sarb065?
Mine is still in the box totally untouched and that is my biggest regret, I bought it as a possible future investment watch along with SARB035, SARB065, and, SARB017. Not one has been put on my wrist, but, I know that in the next 10-20 years if one is going on my wrist it will be the SARB033, it is a stunning watch. Great video btw.
On the flip side to that, I own one SARB, the 033, and I wear it daily. The world takes all kinds of people. May you enjoy your watches regardless of what you choose to do with them! Best of luck to you!
I had a question about the Seiko sarb033. I am interested in this watch for purchase, the condition is pristine with box and papers. The seller wants $530.00, so my question is if it’s worth it or should I wait for something else? This would be my first watch. Thank you for any feedback
In the video, the kirkstead president bracelet has 3 micro adjustment positions, but the current version on the web site only has two micro adjustment positions, which is the same as the OEM bracelet, which is why most people need a replacement in the fist place.
Lovely review. I got my SARB035 around three months ago and definitely see why it is a such a popular watch. The cream dial is great and I really enjoyed the stock bracelet which has a very delicate mirror chamfer along both edges which is not always apparent in photos. The stock bracelet is very elegant. That said, I put on a Strapcode Super Oyster which exudes a sportier look and has more micro-adjustment at the clasp. I will checkout the Kirkstead too - I have always been a fan of the Omega/President-style bracelets - and maybe look at adding a SARB033 to the stable too!
My SARB035 does not keep the best time, but I still wear it every day. It’s gorgeous, and the proportions (case to bracelet) are perfect. The bracelet still looks great after more than three years of constant wear. It’s classy, sporty, and sophisticated - a great go-anywhere, do-anything watch.
Willard Hooton, The bezel has a few scratches, but it’s not horrible. The bracelet doesn’t scratch easily at all, so it still looks great. The underside has some micro -scratches, as is always expected. I’ve already had it serviced once for $150. And I’ll probably have it serviced in 2024.
Hi guys, In the article on your website the sarb033 is pictured with a dark blue and black dress leather strap (also in the picture is a sarb035 with a brown leather strap). Looking to find out the name of the blue strap as i would like to purchase one?? Thanks
SARB035 > SARB033. Main reason for me is that Seiko's typical "puke-y green" lume on the hands blends better with the off-white dial of the 035, whereas the lumed hands on the 033 contrast with the dial more, and lume on a watch like this is a bit distracting. (I wish they had never put lume on it at all, but it's a minor concession). And a minor nit-pick: dust on the sapphire crystal stands out more with the black dial background than it does with the off-white of the 035, where you almost don't even notice it. I also think white/cream/off-white dials are more versatile on strap changes. I've had both for a while now, and I grab my 035 probably 2 times to 1 over the 033.
Dave Winter Funny, I’m exactly opposite. Love the chocolate dial, and dress it out as a field watch- so the lume is appreciated! Guess that’s why the made both👍
Please do more strap/bracelet videos for the SARB033. I have one on order and was thinking about getting your Butterfly Solid 5 Link bracelet for it. Would love to see video of it and for you to talk about the end links.
Where can I find the Geckota Kirkstead Stainless Steel Watch Strap? When I click on the link in the description it takes me to a page that does not exist anymore.
Agree, w/o a doubt, you're straps elevate the watch. Personally, unless skinny wristed, i think the sarx 035 (whilst same mmt) is much better in many ways (incl bracelet)
Awesome review! Considering this to be my next watch. Do you have any suggestions for a good mid range (price) watch box? My collection is getting a bit larger :)
do you think, the sarb033 will look good in a white strap (keeping in mind the 'Marathon divers model rubber white strap')? i just got the 033 and was thinking of the white rubber strap... for a more sporty look.
The integration of the stock Seiko middle link with the Kirkstead doesn't work for me. The middle link is brushed, but the Kirstead's middle links are polished, and the transition looks too stark and a little bit odd. Might look best if the final center link of the stock Seiko bracelet were polished, and THEN integrated into the Kirkstead. If you own a Dremel tool, shouldn't take more than 20 minutes to polish the brushing out and get them to shine.
@@watchgecko Also I put your Ellipse strap on my SARB035 (the hollow end links took about an hour to bend properly), and it looks tremendous. My favorite bracelet for the 035 BY FAR!
Hey chaps at Watch Gecko - I'd really appreciate some input. How easy do you guys find changing straps on the SARB033? I have the Kirkstead bracelet on currently but I had a guy at Timpsons change it for me because I simply could not get the spring bars to release the strap , even when using a spring bar tool. I only ask because I am keen to purchase the Simple handmade Italian chocolate brown strap you recommend in your videos. If I am to change my straps regularly I really want to be able to do it myself without paying a shop to do what should be a relatively easy task.
Not all springbar tools are the same…I have four of them, all from different companies, for my Hamilton steel bracelet for instance, their tool worked while the other 3 didn’t. Different lengths, thicknesses, etc. affect the ease of strap and bracelet removal.
I saw someone with a similar watch but the bezel was more pronounced and flat, angled. What's that called? I'd love to search for it. The dial seemed larger. Nice styling to the whole thing. Maybe a Grand Seiko. Not an option for my wallet but I'd love a somewhat muscular, no thrills watch.
Own one, absolutely love it. If I may nitpick.... the sub-minute marker makes the dial a little too busy, I wish it comes in 39mm case and yes the lack of micro adjuster on the clasp.
Can you show us how you attached the kirkstead bracelet to the end links? Did you use the original end links from the Seiko bracelet or is it Gecko's own curved end links for Seiko watches? Thanks.
I’ve got the same watch but with the white/cream dial. I’ve never got 50 hours, 30 tops. I have Rolex, IWC, and another Pilot watch I got on Kickstarter ,the Seiko hardly ever gets worn..runs slow even after regulation.
Excellent video thank you! Question for anyone who might know. Just recently purchased this watch and the power reserve works fine on a full wind and also keeps running on my wrist, HOWEVER it will NOT keep running on a Winder. Is there something about the 6R15 that doesn't allow the winder to keep it moving ? I have two other automatic watches but both with Swiss movements and they never stop while on the winder. Anyone heard of this issue? Thanks in advance .
Have the 035 and it certainly has a more casual look. Like many others I'm also tempted to get the 033 too as the black dial with a nice leather strap looks very sharp.
I agree, like the white even tough it is kind of cream. Bad thing tough is that the date color do not realy match. But in general a do prefere white dials.
Hi Chris! Thank you for the support with the series! Episode 2 is up, let us know what you think. here is a direct link for you ruclips.net/video/7MxiZkSalHg/видео.html
Hello. There's a new watch on the market, the orient star standard re au0004b00b. It offers better quality than the sarb and it's cheaper. I think it would be a great edition to your channel since there aren't any English reviews about it. Its a sarb killer!
@@dylo9793 jomashop. I was surprised it was was the cheapest even though it was the best store. I got a $25 refund as well because the band width was 20mm even though the description said 22mm
Thanks for the suggestion. The dial is busier but the watch looks really well finished from photos/videos. The bracelet/clasp also looks a little better finished than the SARB033/035's.
Sorry dude, but that dial on the Orient doesn't come close to comparing with the Sarb033 dial. The power reserve indicator is too large and distracting and looks like a smiley face in the top of the dial. Personally I'm also not a fan on Roman numerals either. The face is just too busy. The Sarb has a classically clean dial with just applied markers. Considering the dial makes up 80% of the watch that's vissible on the wrist, it's my most important factor when buying a watch. Yes i own a Sarb033 cause i like it. I'm happy for you for preferring the Orient and glad we all have different tastes in watches.
Hi bobby, I will link you the two watches shown in our watch strap. www.watchgecko.com/seiko-ssa-presage-cocktail-time-watch www.watchgecko.com/geckota-k-01a-40mm-pilots-watch-handmade-strap I will link our watch roll as well - www.watchgecko.com/canvas-watch-roll-by-geckota
you criticize the original bracelet on the Sarb for having only 2 micro adjustments, but then you go and make your nice looking version that only fits wrist sizes above 6.8 inches. Do you realize how many people that eliminates? I sound bitter because my wrist is 6 inches, but from a business perspective alone that was not a great decision on your part.
My thoughts exactly - and the lens even says "DDR", to leave no doubt about it... Guys, Olympus OM-1 is a backdrop for Japanese watches (and Praktika only for Ruhla or some such communist brand...) :-)

The power reserve indicator is too large and distracting and looks like a smiley face in the top of the dial. Personally I'm also not a fan on Roman numerals either. The face is just too busy.
The Sarb has a classically clean dial with just applied markers.
Considering the dial makes up 80% of the watch that's vissible on the wrist, it's my most important factor when buying a watch.
Yes i own a Sarb033 cause i like it.
I'm happy for you for preferring the Orient and glad we all have different tastes in watches.
Looks unbelievable. Lack of funds, though. I'll have to go with the Seiko SNE039 instead.
most classic watch of all time. 4:09 the best combination
what are the other two watches in the pouch in the beginning?

I should have bought one when I had the chance lol
whats the bracelet name ?
4:10 which is this strap?
Do you like the SARB33 over the SARB35? I'm torn.....help
Buy both.
033👌
you criticize the original bracelet on the Sarb for having only 2 micro adjustments, but then you go and make your nice looking version that only fits wrist sizes above 6.8 inches. Do you realize how many people that eliminates? I sound bitter because my wrist is 6 inches, but from a business perspective alone that was not a great decision on your part.
where can i buy the president bracelet for the sarb033?
On their website, there's a link in the bio
Why do you show up this watch with a GDR Camera Praktika? :-D
My thoughts exactly - and the lens even says "DDR", to leave no doubt about it... Guys, Olympus OM-1 is a backdrop for Japanese watches (and Praktika only for Ruhla or some such communist brand...) :-)
Where can i buy this? I want it!!!
