QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 20 2015, 01:00 PM) When you say yours had an indentation, was it an SARB065? Asking because Thongsia does not carry the model since its made for Japan only. Not sure if they would entertain a request to do it. I've squinted at it for some time now, and I don't think it's a loose particle. It looks more like a scratch or indentation from behind the dial. Yep, was the same watch.. You can email Seiya and asked, while at the same time go to check what can Thongsia do, though they might not be able to claim warranty as its within the defect acceptable limits However usually Seiya will exchange it, can't remember about the shipping cost cover as I decided it was too minor to go through the hassle.

Ok thanks. I'll check with Seiya as well as the cost to ship there. Did you take it to the Thongsia HQ in central plaza KL?

Mine's the 6r15C and the indentation was at a different area from what I remembered those with the B suffered. Nothing visible really unless you put a magnifier to it. More of a peeve than anything at the time. QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 20 2015, 01:30 PM) Ok thanks. I'll check with Seiya as well as the cost to ship there.

If you mean you want a smaller watch to fit your looks but you have small write, maybe look at SKX013?

I think the shop I go in ximending has more variety than a large Yodobashi since the latter concentrates only on popular models. BTW.. I called dips on the srp777 di. Shop fella gonna call as soon as it arrives.
