Along with 4 Rolexes, I was looking for a daily watch and wanted the most bang for my buck. I came across the SEIKO SCVS001 and the SARB035. They are 23 jewel movements and have both the hacking feature and hand winding. Both of those features are unusual for Seiko. The bracelets are solid and not the typical rolled and they have sapphire crystals and hardlex exhibition backs. The price is between 350 and 450 and they only sell them in Japan, but you can buy them on the internet. Both watches have been running +4 seconds a day, within COSC specs. I think they are great daily wearers.

the SARB line is fantastic....the 6R15 movt. excellent....not wild about the looks of SCVS line though...but the SARBs are very sharp.

I looked them up on Google and they are nice looking watches! They look like great value to me. Seiko makes some wonderful looking timepieces.

It's funny that I should see this thread as I have been looking at both of these and the slighly more expensive one.
SAR B045 and am thinking this will be my next watch purchase, sort of baby Grand Seiko!
