Seeing that SKX is out of production, does this model have the potential to be a collectors item after a good few years?

Yea, there was a discussion on it, and no one is clear on where he found that info.

You can pretty much still get it in main channels like Yodabashi or wherever you get your watches.

ya, saw the shots earlier.
looks like got duped by seiko, or they're holding on to the what they know will be the most sellable black version with bracelet.
thought the SRP773 was black...zzz.
so looks like the SRP775 will have to be my first target...shouldnt be hard to get.
SRP777 can pass first since no bracelet.
*
You have good taste, Sir ...mainly because I'll be aiming for the 775 as well..

Then swap the bracelet with my 777's strap.

Just got my Cocktail Time from Seiya. The watch looks fabulous, and the leather strap isn't as stiff as I've read. Very happy with it... except for one thing. There appears to be a strand of white hair or something between the 1 and 2 o'clock markers. Its not visible under normal lighting, but shine a bright light from the side and it becomes visible. Damn. What do you guys think, just accept it or send it back? Dunno how much shipping will cost...
*
Having dealt with them before, they will accept it if you send it back, however might not be worth the time.

If it's just some dust, I advice you to take it to Thongsia and see what they can do. Mine have a really really really tiny indentation that can be seen up-close microscopic level, and they were happy to change it but unfortunately their policy was anything under 5mm (iirc) was not considered a defect sad.gif

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.
*
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. Did you take it to the Thongsia HQ in central plaza KL?
*
Yep,all the best.

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?

In regular shop now. Sarb033 naik harga di. He quote Nt10,200. Last time only NT9k. I bought my 032 in Yodobashi only NT7k in May this year.
Sarb065 the fella say no more liao.
*
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?
