Best dress watch you can buy under $1,000
This watch looks and feels amazing. The crystal is good, but not as good as the SARX057, 033 or 035. Those watches all have solid dials, and the 057 is titanium.The Diashield coating makes the steel look a bit different, but it is worth it as the watch is extremely scratch resistance. The case is exceptionally finished. The bracelet is a good one, both attractive and comfortable. The clasp is first-rate. The movement is not too accurate, but it is more reliable than the 6r15 and durable, with a three-day power reserve. Supposedly is is nothing more than the venerable 4r35 with a fancy Spron hairspring. If this is true, awesome, because the 4r35 is amazing. Best of all, the 4r35 (or NH35), can be directly swapped out I believe, so if the movement breaks, one can grab a $50 movement, pay a watchmaker $100, and you are good for a decade. This is a lifetime watch.The watch is slim, beautiful, comfortable and difficult to scratch. The AR sapphire displays the dial without distortion or excessive reflection. The only comparable Swiss automatics cost more than twice the price. I cannot recommend this watch strongly enough. Also, the watch is called both the SPB203 as well as the SARX083.
