+1. There are no watches I know of for under $400 that would compare. Maaaaaybe a Tissot.

Also, check other sites. Many sale sites are listed in the watch threads.

I own SARB031. Bought it a year ago from a private seller on watchuseek. SARB031 is a popular model; now it is discontinued, the only way to get it is from private sellers.

If you like mechanical Seiko watches, look here:

SARB043 seems alright and its under $400.

You think so? I kinda like it. If you don't care about the movement, you can get a decent quartz watch for under 500, Longines has plenty of those.

Hey Iroh,

I just happened to see this thread on a Google search. I'm getting ready to list my Seiko SARB031 6R15B for sale. It's in near mint condition, just like your photo. It comes with both a new brown strap and the black one in your picture, which I never wore (also new). If you are interested, please contact [email protected] I'm going to list it for $275, including shipping cost. I'm located in California.

-Derek
