San Martin Sn058gx 36 mm VS ROLEX Datejust 36 mm 126234

Warning ⚠️⚠️ there are a lot of Truth bombs in this video all opinions are that of my own and this is not a paid promotion in any way as I have bought all these watches with all of my own money #watchreviews #luxurywatches #watch #rolexhomage #sanmartinwatches #divewatch #divewatches #watchreviews

Seems more and more Rolex ridiculous high prices are more about the name than anything else….…I hope reviews like this will contribute to knocking them off their pedestal.

I’m wearing the exact same San Martin on my 7 1/2” wrist. And yes, the blue on the SM is richer and more vibrant than my 41dj. The smaller size does look more elegant and dressy. Once you wear a smaller watch for a while you get used to it and it doesn’t seem small anymore.
Btw I found out that the Pelagos 39 has a problem with the hands not being very well lumed compared to the indices and bezel—so close but now off my radar. Keep up the great content Ed!😎

Do you think what is the best Aliexpress watch 36mm or 37mm? I want to hear your thoughts

[asiantimepieces]

The SM on the left looks nice but all homages fail in proportions, date wheel, quality finishes and so on.
Ginault plays on another level, of course.

I have ordered this watch, but it does not come with the micro adjustment, please do you know if there is any link to buy the micro adjustment clasp from San Martin to attach to this watch

[davidsonviray]

how about the rehaut of the gen vs the san martin 36 do you think it's the same? or it's more shallow or deeper?

[MrDucatiti]

Great comparison.. and nice trio. No problem with blue dials in terms of manufacturing fyi. It is only the ceramic bezel insert for the GMT pepsi ONLY.

[deanP.]

Thanks for the comparison video. That was a cool trick about putting the watch on upside down first. It’s cool that you can get the experience first with the San Martin. Then you know if you want to spend the money on the Rolex. Greatly appreciated.

The bezel is the real tell. The bezel on the san martin doesnt even seem close but other than that seems pretty close. I just wish san martin would changed their logo.

[johandoe]

Totaly agree. I four San martins now. The white dail gx. A mop blue dail gx. The small blue dial g. And an explorer type. All sw200. Also have a real. rolex

[calerichmond]

Thanks Mr. E for making this comparison video, its so good that i purchased the san martin SN0059 in blue mop dial and im very impressed. It almost feels like a rolex in hand without the rolex price tag. The finishing and the dials are all perfect for the price couldnt find a reason to complain.

This really convinced me ordering a 36mm San Martin just for trying on on my 7 1/4 wrist. Since I'm a pretty, I never even thought about a 36mm watch and just went with 40-41mm.

[markmaraskiward]

The Isl-38 fluted bezel version is another nice homage with the 9015 movement. I got it after selling my dj41.

[johandoe]

Mr. Ed. Since we have the same taste in blue face watches and quality watches……have you seen the Pitzman II? I’m gonna buy it in the spring…..sw300!

[jodysilvia]

I dig the San martin on the left the blue is much nicer

[Pal-usuv]

Liked and subscribed. I will buy this watch 11.11. It will be my last san martin 🥺 I have too many.

[davidsonviray]

Do you have an idea why the crystal is raised? Does it have a advantage vs the flat crystal

[stevenmccarthy]

I love your no bullshit style man. Subscribed.

It is getting tougher to justify the incredible price gap between top-notch microbrands and luxury brands. That said, luxury brands, like Rolex, do offer incredible heritage, better overall quality for those who appreciate, prestige (for those who desire), and a much safer opportunity to maintain value ( if you're lucky increase). The other thing a luxury brand may do is to boost one's feelings of accomplishment. Bottom line, as you pay more for a watch, the law of diminishing returns kicks in. Are these watches worth it? For some yes, others no. It is as individual of a choice as most other things in life. One thing is for sure, many microbrands offer killer watches for a far far better value proposition.

[rickhammel]

I'll take the San Martin and put the rest in Apple stock.
