I just received my first San Martin watch and I’m in love with it. Insane quality for the price

[busslayer]

The Seiko cocktail time series have nicely textured dials.

With 11/11 around the corner, those San Martin watches are looking good!

[gopinathharris]

Hell yeah, Im so hyped seeing this as an Islander Melville owner.

Someone's getting an appetite for Ali express watches!!!! 😂😅🎉 Can't blame you, there's some good stuff out there.

You should've added the Phoibos Eagle Ray.

Im planning to buy a boderry landmaster so could you make a video on it or just tell me if its a good watch. I was looking for something cheap and pretty slim so i was hoping to get this one

I like that you say watches under $500 or any certain price point way better than other people who just say “affordable” watches which could mean anything and often their list is a Casio and then a watch that’s like $600 affordable is different to different people

Try the Hitori Habuka 39 aka the grand seiko killer

[AMAMBT]

seiko, citizen then islander . if i would pick one

[Enzoid]

what about the seiko srpe33 manta ray?

[LongIslandHockey]

Northport, islander, Melville, is this a Long Island watch collection? 😂

[ShlomoAvrahahamSneor]

What are your thoughts on the quality of the San Martins? I have heard mixed reviews on them. Some people think they are better than seikos and others say they are pieces of shit.

With the exceptions of Seiko and Citizen, this list features all watches manufactured in China. That’s how they keep costs down so low.

The first one just looks like it's trying to be a GS

[paulbrown]

Less colorful than those, but I like the Tissot PR 100, Tour de France edition. The texture is like pavement, and the second hand is yellow with a tiny bicycle shape.
There is also a La Vuelta version with a red second hand and a red bicycle.

[genghiskhan]

Good luck finding those Erebus models, they aren't making them anymore.

[KeeperCode]

I mean I'd rather have a Citizen than pay extra for a Seiko that says Grand on it.

Not a bad one in the bunch. Yes, these are all Chinese made watches, but as we all know, the Swiss are fast and loose with their rules for being a “Swiss Made” watch. At least the Chinese own it. 🤷🏻‍♂️
