Great comparison. I rotate between my SARB033 and SNKL41 at the office. I guess the magic of the SARB is in the quality you get. The disparity in price can't really be noticed by the looks, but can definitely be felt on wrist. The materials of the SARB feel better, the finishing is better, it has higher water resistance, and the movement is a few levels above. It just feels like a much more expensive watch. Love my SNKL41 too, but when wearing both over an extended period the quality difference can definitely be noticed.
Keep up the good reviews, glad to see a Malaysian doing these!
Thanks for the support man.
The SARB is better, just not 5 times better. The SNKL45 is probably the best value Seiko out right now.
Yup. I concur. Thanks for watching Brett!
The SARB is the better watch, but i still think the SNKL45 is, one of the best looking Seiko 5. And I wanted to own at least one Seiko 5. I also like the crown integration in the case at 4 o'clock.
Where do you buy your Seikos? I only get the ones with english/spanish date, never the one with japanese/english.
Hello there! I'm based in Malaysia, so I bought mine from Lazada, which is something similar to Amazon. Mine had a roman numeral day wheel though. Thanks for watching👍
Thanks for the video. However, what would you recommend beginner watch hobbyist to look out for in spotting Feikos? I'm looking to purchase a SNKL45 online, but I also notice that some Feikos look really authentic. Its so hard to tell. Any tips or advice?
Don't believe if it's too cheap. For any new Seiko 5, the realistic price should be around USD60~100. So anything less than should be considered as fake. Doing your research by watching UA-cam videos before buying might also help. Thanks for watching man
I really like the snkl on steel strap, unlike the common use of swapping the band for an leather one. The watch looks more balanced, the links also are gently polished on the side and it’s a great pair with polished case sides
You mean the OEM bracelet that it came with? I haven't put it on since I got the watch. Maybe I'll give it a try someday. Thanks for watching man!
But it feels so realy bad. Are there any good aftermarket steelsstraps for seiko 5 out there - with fitting endlink?
While SARB is better in a few ways but the SNKL holds its own n even more, especially at its price point.
By the time I'm here, the SARB033 has gone up to ard 600 bucks or more.
So the price difference is even more crazy n vast.
N so is the price-to-satisfaction-ratio. 😁
Yup. Totally sucks. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
In sweden the snkl45 is around 150 dollars still bought it a couple of weeks ago great watch!
Cool watch if you can pull off the smaller size. Thanks for watching man 👍
I just bought the following strap for my SNKL45; Hirsch REGENT Genuine Alligator Leather Watch Strap in BROWN
18mm / Medium (110mm/70mm) / Silver Buckle
So Adam am guessing the lug to lug with is 18mm right?
Yes, it is 18mm lug width for the SNKL45
seiko snkl45 / sarb033 / sarx057 would be great for collection as dress watch with black dial
I'll check out the SARX057. Thanks for watching bro👍
Snkl45 or snxs79? Which one do you prefer? 🤔
Frankly, I'm not a fan of the SNXS79. but I know many people do love it. Thanks for watching man!
@@NMwatch Snkl45 is just like the snkl23 right, with a red second hand
@@gtimothyw the dial has some texture, which I don't like
The L45's second hand is the winner!
Yes it is. Thanks for watching man!
Hi! Tanks for the video. I would like to know which is the width of the strap I have to buy for the Seiko 5 sknl45.
It's in 18mm width. Thanks for watching!
NMwatch Thanks
Love the Sarb033😁
That's coming from a man who just recently got one in right?🤗
just got the snkl45 for around SGD$90
Nice price. Enjoy your new watch in good health bro. Thanks for watching 😎
@@NMwatch thanks man! love your vids!
Are they wear similar on wrist in terms of the looks on wrist from a distance?
I have to say the SNKL45 wears smaller than the SARB033. But not that far bigger
Honstly you can't not compair them ( just look at the sarb )
Ah well, it is a budget alternative. Of course, if you can find one for a good price, the SARB is the better buy. Thanks for watching 😎
I got my hands on a sarb035 for $420 and an snkl41 for $120. This will be my only “dress”’watch. Is sarb035 worth $300 more?
Hey man. If I'm being honest, no. Thanks for watching 😉
Can you upgrade the hardlex to sapphire?
I believe there is a sapphire crystal upgrade for the SNKL45. I'm not a modder, but I might consider to do that in the future. Thanks for watching 👍
SARB033 for me, looks so elegant in comparison
Yeah man. But I still think the SNKL45 is an excellent option. Thanks for watching!
