CONTROL>ALT>DELETE. After a few years of behaving like a raccoon w/ rabies for shiny things, I've come to realize that having a dozen or so watches does not bring me happiness. So, I am now purging myself of every watch that I don't have an unflinching bond with. Here is a the SARB017, a watch that needs no introduction. Condition is superb, I'd rate it a 9.3. No real scratches at all. Dial, case, crown are all flawless. It doesn't come with the OEM leather strap. I do have a light tan suede strap seen in the picture. I have the boxes, papers, etc. Also have a badass green Artem strap that I could add for an additional $75. Here are the specs: Case size: 39mm x 20mm / Water resistance: 200m / Case thickness: 12.5mm / Movement: 6R15 Price : $650, No trade please. PayPal F&F, Zelle or Venmo. Shipping with FedEx. Album: [https://imgur.com/a/mNgGQdl](https://imgur.com/a/mNgGQdl) I'm more than happy to jump on a FaceTime or zoom to show the piece and prove I'm an upstanding citizen.

	Established:	1881
	Website:	http://seikousa.com/index.php
	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
