Hello, what's the difference between this model SARB065 and this model from the official website SARB065 J
http://www.seiko.fr/collection-tradition-automatique-homme/montre-tradition-automatique-3-aiguilles-date-sarb065j
What is the "J" meaning?

HeldanI think the "J" means that it's made in Japan - this is a JDM (Japanese Domestic Market).
I'm not sure about this but to me it looks like it's the same watch! Also, the following website lists both names (SARB065 and SARB065J) for the same product: http://www.skywatches.com.sg/reviews/japan-made-seiko-automatic-cocktail-time-gents-watch-sarb065-sarb065j.htm

payodpandaThanks for the reply! It'd be great if someone from Massdrop could further confirm what the "warranty" means. From my understanding of what has been communicated and what you've posted, seems like it's only good for a 1 for 1 exchange where I have to mail the product to Massdrop.

jlkpjlkpWhat you said is correct. Should you receive a defective product, our Support will facilitate an exchange of the product.
(To expand a bit more- We do not have a policy where you can send it to the Seiko USA Service Center located in NJ because this is not a Seiko USA product. This is the only Seiko Service Center in the US. For other watches not covered under official manufacturer warranties, many people may choose to go to a local watch repair shop.)

ChristopherJThanks Christopher. Just to be clear, if my watch should malfunction only some time (say a year) after I receive it, my options are to either pay for a repair at the local watch shop (I do not live in the US) or send it back to Massdrop for a new replacement?
