tuanfun 0 Posted September 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I am thinking about getting an sarb065. What are your thoughts on the style, the movement, reliability, etc.? Is it worth the price? Are there any other watches you would suggest? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MJ1958 1 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I think you'll find several threads and posts here that will affirm that the SARB065 is a great acquisition, regardless of price. It is on my must-have list. The only other watch that would make me delay (not decline, though) a purchase of the SARB065 Cocktail Time is the Orient Star Classic EL5003W: Only issue I've identified with the SARB065 is apparently a manufacturing defect where there is a small dent above the date window. That has been reported by some purchasers on the Massdrop website. I'm not going to go that route for purchase since their return policy is non-existent. Don't think you can go wrong the SARB065. Just purchase from a reputable source that has a return policy in the slightest chance you get a model with some kind of issue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anderson 1 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 My only issue with the 065 is the cast iron strap that Seiko fit to it but the watch is so nice in every other respect that I can overlook that one small shortcoming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heber 0 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I will probably get one when I get a chance. I will probably change the strap any way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
htchange 1 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 It's a beautiful watch. It's all about the dial. Next on my list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oscar 2 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Buy buy buy!!!! It's one of my favorite watches even when compared to my grand seikos, Rolex, omega etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jeffwo 0 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I think it's definitely worth the price, and for me at least the 6R15 has been a reliable, accurate movement too. The dial is a work of art, it can change from sky blue to a silvery white, and the relatively short lugs mean it wears great. I think it dresses down nicely with certain leather straps or on perlon. Here's mine on a grey Colareb strap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
matte18 2 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 It's the one watch that I have flipped that I really miss. Beautiful watch! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
