This is not only the best SM Watch for $220 for sale, it might be one of the best $220 watches on sale period. Thanks for the great review.

I purchased one of these based on your review and I have to tell you I am beyond impressed. The quality of finishing and features of this thing are way beyond its price point. I got one during the 11:11 sale and I wish I would have purchased more than just one.

Seems like you have really changed your tune on these Chinese watches. Good on you! Value matters and these brands give you the most value for the money. Love the channel and keep up the good work!

Glad the see San Martin getting a fair shake on your channel, Dave. The quality of Chinese watches has levelled up significantly this year, they’re really giving bigger brands a run for their money.

San Martin also has that nice Grand Seiko looking silvery GMT watch.

I've been so close to buying this one and now I may not be able to resist any longer. The new colours are pretty wild too.

They missed out on putting a 24 hr scale on the chapter ring. If they had done that, then you could run the watch as it should be used - with the GMT hand actually on GMT, and then you see two other time zones - the central main hands, and a third time zone via the offset from GMT via the bezel. Why this is a mystery to so many manufacturers is also a mystery - to me.

I just got one now as I watch this video, I really dig those classic vintage look and the pop colors are just 👌👌

I bought this watch when it first came out, it was the colours that sold it to me. It’s just a fantastic made watch and great value

[joestojanovic]

The watch is great, and it's presented in a professional video. The design is original, and definitely worth the buy. I don't agree it's not exciting design, it is an awesome design. San Martin upped the game here. This is now a design worth higher end movements, not only Seiko movements.
One thing I didn't really like is the clasp which scratches very easily just by holding your hands on the table, which makes me think that clasp steel i softer than on other watches, but I might be wrong. Also the clasp should be more snug to the bracelet on the side with quick release (7:17).

Nice original design & very affordable pricing. The colours scheme is a good mix. Great job San Martin 😮

Another great watch choice Dave, I purchased the Casio lineage M700D from Japan when you did a video on that, it's a fantastic watch and probably the most worn watch in my collection :)

I actually own this watch! I bought it a couple of months ago when Jody recommended it. I have a large (107) watch collection and this is truly one of my favorites. I am wearing it now! I recommend it because of the specs and because it is very comfortable for my 8" wrist.

[JHualas]

Excellent Video Dave. This a beautiful, very well finished Watch with excellent specs. San Martin is full value

It's not bad, some of the variations are more my cup of tea but at this price I would expect a capped seconds hand from San Martin. It's one of their better looking pieces and nice to see a regular 3 hander available too.

[paraguayito]

I bought it based on your review! Very happy, the only thing is that the link in the video for this watch it’s not for the San Martin official store .. it’s the diver watch factory store.. still a good source I believe

Im so close to pulling the trigger on this one. Its absolutely stunning. I just wish the black one had an enamel dial like other SMs, or the sand dial with a 120 click bezel and an oyster bracelet. But maybe im asking too much....

[mattinmalaga]

I own a few SM watches because I love collecting affordable watches and don't have the money (nor would I buy more than one if I did) for luxury brand watches! The quality is insane and they are totally reliable, I have various models on my wish list that I'll be ordering as and when finances permit 👌🏻

[milanchristi]

Wowzers - just checking this out now on their website. Just might have to pull the trigger. This is a beauty.

At 11:06 you say this watch isn't original. It is very original both, by not being an homage, and by also not looking like anything else. What watch does this look like ?
