Which one did you go with or did all the advice toughen up the decision?
 
Hi there,

I had the same question as you (but wasn't a member at the time) , eventually (took me about six months) I decided on the 003...and after a while saw this thread: https://www.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=80320 and just had to get myself that strap and fell in love all over again...

Don't get me wrong, the pictures are great but once you have one of these up close you'll see what the fuss is all about.
After a while though I kind of missed the steel on my wrist and these things being so (relatively) cheap got myself another one!!

They really are that good, and I see some people have pointed out the oysterstyle bracelate which I can confirm is the same as on the sarb035 ,amongst others. I recently got it fitted to my second 003 and have had lots of envious looks and questions ( also from people wearing and/or owning whatches upto 20 times the price ).

One danger though (as you may have guessed), you might get bitten by the Seiko-bug.
I know I did...I'm getting another Seiko for my 30th next week ;-).
 
I believe that you can just order one from Seiya if/when you purchase the watch (assuming you'd like an official Seiko product):

Check out this thread (different forum): http://www.larrybiggs.net/scwf/index.php?mod=103&action=0&id=1137201975

There are also numerous aftermarket options. I personally prefer this watch on a president bracelet, as seen here:

Do you have an old pic of the SVC003 and the president bracelet? That link is no longer valid. I have mine on a brown croc strap, but want a nice bracelet (don't like the Jubilee it came with) for summer. The president looks more interesting than the oyster to me.
