A Steak Question

I have cooked many steaks to medium rare then quickly seared them. These turn out pretty well but I would like to get a better sear.
I want to end up at medium rare. Here is my idea. Follow the time and temperature for a rare steak, remove it from the bag and dry it off. Season and sear longer than normal in a hot pan and finish by basting with butter and rosemary.
My idea is not to rush the sear and let the extra time take it from rare to medium rare.
Has anyone tried this?

I have always worried about the searing overcooking my meat and it dawned on me that this might be a solution.
