The attention to the details and quality in the San Martin lines is comparable to much higher priced models. But of course such steps are not needed for a Rolex; the first five years regulation is free plus the movement's manufacturing standards essentially eliminate positional issues (or so the advertising would have us believe). Bought this watch in wine infused daze and happy I did. Went for the applied hex logo, kinda wish I’d gone for the printed hex but still love it. It seems like the reimagining of the 1016 that Rolex might do. I really enjoy the blending of vintage and modern design in this piece. Bracelet is a little stiff but hopefully that’ll ease up with time, and I do think you could get away with male endlinks on this small watch. Wears and looks amazing. Straight up. For their bands, San Martin watches usually have stainless steel, rubber, or even leather bands. And lastly, the water resistance of their watches are going to be rated for a depth of up to 200 meters or more, usually.

I added “Chinese” because their PT5000 movement (clone of ETA 2824-2 according to the internet) is purely Chinese. Given that and China now makes many high-quality products, I felt it right to display the watch’s country of origin. I removed the =330 for the simple fact many wearers of automatic watches know the approximate length/depth of 100 meters. Given that is the watch’s water resistance, most of us will never take our watches close to that depth. The best I can free dive on the rare snorkeling adventure is 30 feet. In fact, I swam laps today with my SN021-G, and it did perfectly well. This is San Martin’s Homage to the Seiko Tuna SBBN015. Definitely a lot cheaper than the original! I also like that the San Martin Tuna comes in various different color variations for the dial. The red especially is quite striking! Obviously an advantage of the timegrapher is unambiguous and rapid positional measurements. It is quite another thing to judge what to do about them. i do not fancy myself a watchmaker and all i really know about positional errors is that, while beat error correction may help some of them (or not) practically any other steps delve into the obscure dark arts of balance wheel poising, staff/bearing correction, etc. The dial windows, are usually made of anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Now this is an interesting choice for these types of watches, as sapphire is considered a more premium material, and is thus more expensive. I’ve always like the look of this vintage style dial, but the smaller size was just a bit too small for my taste. This San Martin SN020-G is a dream come true. 39mm case that is slim and contoured beautifully. Nice finish! The vintage lume applied to the dial give just enough vintage vibe, but not too much. The crystal looks better in hand than the pics can show. Over all a nice clean look that stands out but yet flies under the radar.

If you are satisfied with our products and services, please don’t forget to give us a 5 star rating. So what do I think of San Martin watches? San Martin Watches are good, but not too much better than any other inexpensive dive watch or homage. In my opinion, I think that while San Martin watches attempt to be of a higher quality than other brands, they end up just being a more expensive version of something you can get for cheaper elsewhere. San Martin watches have analog displays, and feature automatic movement. Their cases can be made of bronze, brass, or stainless steel. The bezels also, can be made of bronze, brass or stainless steel. Some bezels will be ceramic as well.

San Martin 36mm BB36 Explore Watch SN021-G-B3

I’ve collected watches for many years. I’ve owned a Rolex Submariner, Breitling Navitimer, Zodiac Sea Wolf, etc. This watch looks just as good as any of them. I just love it. San Martin hit a home run with this watch.Like the aforementioned brands, San Martin watches are popular for their diver’s watches. They specialize in producing homages to watches such as the Rolex Submariner, Seiko 62 MAS, and more. This is a very well made and nice looking watch overall. The finishing on the case and bracelet are fantastic. But why are there three different San Martin logos on one watch? No premium brand mismatches like that. Either have the logos match or leave them off. Having an unsigned crown and bracelet would be better than having logos that do not match. The bracelet on my SM is of high quality. The mistake SM made was reducing the micro adjust holes on their new clasp from 4 to 2. Not enough micro adjustment to get a proper fit. Like you, I have a preference for a nice leather strap. The main 2 issues I have with bracelets are: 1. They add weight and bulk (which can be a plus with a 36mm watch, but is a problem for me with most other watches) and 2. During a typical day, my wrist swells and contracts, and unless there is an on-the-fly adjustment (like the easy-link 5mm adjustment in the clasp of my Rolex), I have to remove the watch a number of times from my wrist to allow my wrist to contract. The San Martin 62MAS uses automatic movement, and features an analog display. It’s dial window is made of ant reflective sapphire crystal. The case of this one is stainless steel, and the band is rubber. It has a ceramic bezel.

Clasp: Clasp: New Folding Clasp With Safety, With 3D Hexagonal Logo,Small Size Clasp, More Suitable For Watches Beat error correction is something that i leave to others. Hah! What am i saying? Even minor speed regulation i outsource. Mind you, i have colleagues that are watch nerds and can be bribed with suitable malt beverages. Positives: it is an extremely attractive watch. I love the vintage Explorer 1016 dial. The finishing, build quality and quality control are all excellent for an Ali Express watch. The crown is now signed with the same logo as the clasp. It came with a very high quality NATO strap for no additional charge. The box hat crystal is gorgeous. I got an excellent deal on it in the 11/11 sale and it costs a fraction of a percent of what a Rolex Explorer 1016 costs. It will keep me amused until my Rolex AD calls me to let me know my 124270 has arrived. Sometimes they mix and match these materials. For example, some watches may have a combination of a bronze case with a stainless steel bezel or vice versa. The use of bronze and brass cases is different, because you don’t see that very often in these kinds of watches.

Kindly Note: Due to weather, customs or holidays, etc., delivery time may be slightly longer, please be patient. That being said, we will be looking at these watches from a perspective of dive watches. The goal here, is to see if San Martin watches are equal to, or better than, similarly styled watches. We’ll start by looking at the build quality. I stated earlier that we’re going to focus on their dive watches. And yes, a lot of their watches are made to look like more expensive brands. This is deliberate, so they can serve as an affordable alternative to more expensive watches. And that is not a bad way to market a product. San Martin watches will have that all too familiar look that you know and love in diving watches. There will be variations on this design, but you pretty much know what too expect: coin edge unidirectional rotating bezels, luminous hands and markers, and a date window. This will be the basic outline for most of the San Martin diving watches.
