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.

isnt the indentation something common? i recall it had something to do with a 6r15B movement? then the 6r15C movements didnt have that indent anymore.

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.

I don't really understand your last part. If you mean you want a smaller watch to fit your looks but you have small write, maybe look at SKX013?

Can take a look at watches like the sarb017. The alpinist. It's 38mm and it's not too thick . The skx013 is small too but it's a little tall for the small watch.

Nice, but if he goes Yodabashi he would have other choices right? I'm planning to get a 033 and a 017 there.. Though it seems bit boring.

Frankly speaking. 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.

Well, what would you recommend other than a 033 from Yodabsashi / Wako around the price range?
