Dude I feel EXACTLY like you. I own rolex and Tudor and yes I love them. But as a daily wear that you don't have to worry about and can just throw on that will go with everything, this is the best watch ever produced in my opinion lol. There's some weird x factor about this watch that makes it special. I don't know if it's the perfect proportions, the needle hand, how it melts onto the wrist, the timeless dial, etc. Or maybe a combination of all of them. I've had this and the SARB035 for 6 years now. And they'll be with me for the rest of my life.
Thank you 🙏 for the support and this watch is just special, it’s obviously not better than a Rolex, but it has that certain it factor and SoCal represent!!!
TimeToGo Travel And Timepieces If your wife is willing to accept and wear your watch that’s truly awesome. It’s certainly feels like an achievement for us as husband.
Watching this video while wearing my sarb033. The watch doubled in prices even when its used! Such a mad watch! So glad i got it 5 years ago for about 300 dollars.
My wife hates all my dive watches. The SARB033/035 has been going up a lot over her too. Last year you could still get them for under $400, still kind of wish I picked one up. I agree on the lume, they implemented it really well, and it makes this a true everyday watch. Great review!
Great video! It is another reason why I am so glad I bought my 033 back in May for my birthday. It has gotten the most wrist-time since then. This one will always be in my small watch collection. I came late to the Sarb party and only learned about them this past April--way after they had been discontinued. I never would have known about them if not for UA-cam.
Great review as usual, my friend! The SARB035 was my second serious Seiko and it changed what I expected from watches so vastly! What a great series the SARBs are
It’s a fantastic watch indeed. Not only from the looks department but also the durability that you get. This truly is a watch you can wear on a daily basis and not worry about banging it up. Congrats on that KS, hope to add one of those to the collection in the near future.
This SARB is a strong contender for all around one watch collection. I didn’t get the black SARB but still very much tempted to get one (even though I already have the SNKL45 which i guess is the “baby SARB”). I’m happy for you that you’re sharing some of the watches with your wife. Perhaps slowly she’ll get into the hobby too, we could use more ladies here!
That SNKL45 is a beautiful piece! I hope one day my wife really does see the light and starts appreciating watches to our level (it would make it so much easier to buy watches 😂). Thank you for all the support my friend!
Great point of view. This timepiece ticks almost all the right boxes and can be considered as watch of the decade. Next stop will be Hamilton Khaki King automatic. No doubt about it.
Nice video Miguel! Great looking watch and I’ll have to keep an eye out for a pre-owned one as it seems like a great value! Well done and that’s so awesome that your wife wears it as well! 😎👍 Dave
Great video mate, really like your style and I think this could be a fantastic contender for a one watch collection. It's elegant yet it could be dressed down.
this watch was a good buy for ppl buy it from day one for the retail price or even double of the retail price! but what they are asking now even for used ones are definitely not worth it, I should say just save a little more and buy a grand seiko. this watch is unbeatable for the retail price hands down but not what the folks asking right now🤷♂️
Could never own just one watch. This is an elegant piece indeed and if we’re talking cars, this is the Toyota Avalon and not quite the Lexus. 😁 Glad to see the wife approves. 👍
SoCal Watch Reviews, Same here. I can’t stop looking at it. I’ve been appreciating it more over time, too. The prices will just keep increasing as well. Doesn’t matter though because, as I’ve said, I’ll never sell mine!
I have a seiko Sarb033 sitting idle for more than a year as I don't go outside due to current Covid situation, do I need to take extra care or just leave it in the box ?
I think the sarx models are even better. A bit larger and slightly better finish, plus a slightly simpler face (where it says “Automatic”). As far as I know, the movements are identical
I agree, but for me the wearability of this model fits my wrist better. However now in days from a value perspective the SARX makes more sense! Thank you 🙏 for watching!
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
@@SoCalWatchReviews it super hard to find a good deal now a days. On eBay they’re going for $450 plus without the paperwork. I found this on a Reddit forum that I follow. He still has 2 more years on warranty. Do you think these will continue to go up in price? Again, it’s a pristine condition.
I hope you’re enjoying the videos lately. A lot of love and passion gets put into each and every single one of them. Stay safe and take care friends!
Can I share links to the bands you featured in this video
Daryl Chang Absolutely!!!
Can we get this watch in India?
@@kirancs5026 I’m sure you can. Check on eBay.
The Sarb is just a great watch, you don’t need a GS, with sarb you get a great movement and beautiful case design🙏🏻👍🏻
Great review as usual bro 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you my brother and you the hit the nail right on the head!

Oh I'm also in socal! Represent! Lol.

My wife also has been known to wear my Sarb. She instantly liked it and that usually doesn't happen. Nice vid.
There’s something about it man!! Thanks for the support!

I am wearing my seiko sarb035 and love it . I wish I had the 033 .
👏 both the 33 and 35 are beautiful ❤️

I really hope you end up picking one up. My wife really dislikes dive watches as well 😂

Rich H. They’re awesome watches! Thanks for watching!!
Great video and story. The Sarb033 is one of my favorites in my collection.
Traveller K Mine 2! Thanks for watching!
Great review as usual, my friend! The SARB035 was my second serious Seiko and it changed what I expected from watches so vastly! What a great series the SARBs are
Thanks for the support brother!
Enjoyed this one Miguel. The Sarb is truly a versatile piece that can do it all.
Thanks for the support, looking forward to pairing this one with some of your newer straps!
The SARB intrigues me. I'm waiting on delivery of a King Seiko to see if the 'grammar of design' language clicks with me in person. Wonderful watch!

SoCal Watch Reviews I hope maybe one day you can feature a cool watch that your wife owns.
Alias Steve Dan I need to get her one, the only ones she owns are fashion watches 😂 and the newest Apple Watch.
SoCal Watch Reviews You could do a debate! Traditional Watches vs Apple Watch
Great video man, and definitely the SARB033 is a great all rounder, love how they don't short you on the lume on it either
My brother Fred! Thanks for stopping y always an honor!
Great presentation in all respects, sharing a passion with one's wife is vital, it also benefits the collecting potential. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely and thank you!
Love this take on the sarb 👏👏👏
Thank you 🙏 for watching!
Great video. I have the SARB033 and 035. I wear the 033 on bracelet and the 035 is my strap monster. These are my Grand Seiko’s
Wow congrats!! I hope one day I can pick up the 35!!
dude you have the perfect twins
own the bigger brother to this watch, the seiko sarx035. love the deep black dial.
Awesome watch and great video, Miguel! Such an elegant watch, and definitely a strap monster! I loved it on the NATOs, especially the army-green one.
Aviv, This is such a versatile watch and I agree about the green nato!! Thank you for your continued support my friend!
Love your latest video! Very informative and great opinion and one which I share! Keep up the good work!
🙏 Thank you!!
Great point of view. This timepiece ticks almost all the right boxes and can be considered as watch of the decade. Next stop will be Hamilton Khaki King automatic. No doubt about it.
Thanks you for watching! I hope to review a khaki on the channel at one point!
Nice video Miguel! Great looking watch and I’ll have to keep an eye out for a pre-owned one as it seems like a great value! Well done and that’s so awesome that your wife wears it as well! 😎👍
Dave
Hope you find one man, you won’t be disappointed!!
It looks even better on your lady! :) Might have to get one for my niece.
She won’t be disappointed! Thank you for watching!

A great dress watch for the money ! ..... I wish i could fine the salamon dial
That’s a grail of mine!!
Could never own just one watch. This is an elegant piece indeed and if we’re talking cars, this is the Toyota Avalon and not quite the Lexus. 😁 Glad to see the wife approves. 👍
I would never be able to just own one either! Thanks for the continued support my man!
Seiko' is a Lexus and Grand Seiko is a Lexus LFA.
Great review Miguel. I really need to get one of these 😊👍
It’s an amazing watch and thank you for your continued support!
@@SoCalWatchReviews Always brother...Your production quality has gone way up - I just wish you would publish more videos 😊👍
Good video bro! Congrats on 800 subs
Anthony, my man! Thank you brother!!
I’ve been wearing one watch for almost 5 years: the SARB035.
Actually, it’s not the greatest timekeeper, but I’ll never sell it.
The SARB has a charm that’s captivating and I adore mine!!
SoCal Watch Reviews,
Same here. I can’t stop looking at it.
I’ve been appreciating it more over time, too.
The prices will just keep increasing as well.
Doesn’t matter though because, as I’ve said, I’ll never sell mine!
Great video my dude!
Big Ross the boss! In the building!! I know your Wife took your SARB! It’s a real 🐥 magnet 😂
SoCal Watch Reviews yes it is bro
This model prices have shot up
doubled since the video was made
@@gbh_events and now is almost 4 time some ppl asking🤣
Nothing compares
💯
Nice video mate.
🙏
I have a seiko Sarb033 sitting idle for more than a year as I don't go outside due to current Covid situation, do I need to take extra care or just leave it in the box ?
I would wear it every once in a while to make sure the movement does it’s thing. Thank you 🙏 for watching!

I say wait a little and keep looking around, try and pick it up for sub $500 if possible.

@@odizlee I do think they’re going to keep going up in price. I say make that guy an offer of $500 and see if I goes for it! Good luck man!
In chrono24 sarb present price is almost 820$☹️
😳
don't worth it!
Think it’s still worth it for the prices it’s been going for?
David Stefanowicz If you can pick it up for $500 or less yes. Otherwise not so much!!
They should have gone with fully lumed indices. The hands and markers are too reflective as is.
I really think they didn’t to keep that clean esthetic. I honestly don’t mind it so much.
As of now, In Europe, a lot of them go for 1000€ and above
😯
Your videos are good try grand seiko sbga211
Once I partner up with someone that has one, can’t afford it 😂
If you have a large wrist ditch the bracelet. It somehow looks smaller on the bracelet.
An swatch fanboy gave u dislike
I bet 😂
