In the 50’s & 60’s everyone used to scoff at Japanese electronic components…. that is until the world realised that Japan were producing the best on the planet. I think the higher end Chinese mechanical watch movements are likewise underrated & undervalued. I have several in my collection & had no cause to regret any of the purchases. Sam Martin watches are themselves, becoming a name to be noticed. Some great choices here. Thanks Jody.
Just purchased & received No:5 and it's one of the few instances when I've purchased a watch that's it actually looks better in person than online.Thanks once again Jody. Keep up the good work.
I never really considered buying a San Martin in the past, but the Explorer, Ranger and Patek clone are admittedly beautiful. I really like the Bell & Ross lookalike and I really like the original of theirs. I'm still saving towards a grail, but I'd consider the Patek. I'll never be able to own it. (If I somehow did and bought it, it's wrist time would be limited, as my wife would murder me after learning of the cost).
Excellent video. I’m a “middle of the road” type collector. Typically Tissot, & Swiss-made Invicta budget & quality. I have been intrigued by San Martin, since discovering this channel. You presented these watches thoughtfully & fairly. Much appreciated.
I have an updated SN0107-G-X in 36mm with BGW-9 and no fauxtina. It’s absolutely fantastic. It wears a little bigger, than 36mm suggests, but if anyone is in the market for an explorer style watch I can’t recommend it enough. I’m very happy with the NH35 in it. Low cost and high reliability is always a plus. Great go anywhere do anything tool watch. The finishing is spectacular, bracelet excellent, and sapphire gorgeous. You can’t go wrong with it
I love this brand, thank you for given me this data….for an Uruguayan is dificult and expensive to buy/a watch in Ali express, it with your data ahd your links you are helping me a Lot……thank you again from Uruguay….we’re you already have a house to crush if visit us. In fact,I have an special rooom For you when Inthink you be confortable-- January is the best season to come here…… you are obviously invited whenever you want:::::: I only espect a big band roll and may be if you want maque some exchanges the a big watch roll
Number 9, the Ranger style SNO107 is in my cart. Love that dial perfect size. I do very much like that vintage pilot watch. Those blue hands and simple design is sweet.
Hello Jody, I have ordered on Ali Express the Steeldive 1970 after seeing your video, and there is an very nice update on this model. The one I have received has an orriginal milled Steeldive clasp, with 5 micro adjustments. So now even more quality for in my case 77 Euro. Regards, Mick
Love it ,Love it,so far I have 3 San Martin in my collection great value for money, you can not go wrong,thanks again great content as always, Greetings from St George Utah,until next time....
I like the Bell&Ross homage, with no date and second markers, maybe my second San Martin, the first was the salmon dial with jubilee bracelet, SN0050-G with the orient YN55.
People often scoff at Chinese quality but just compare any of these watches (or the watches from the last video) with the MoonSwatch people were lined up for. I actually find it kind of insulting that Swatch feels they can offer so little spec wise . Also the unserviceable sistem 51 type movements are creeping into Tissots too. Quality is out of fashion or something?
From what I could find moonswatch are made in La Chaux-de-Fonds, CH. so it looks like these are Swiss made. However Swatch fully achieved their goal with these moonswatches, with maybe low profit but definitely won on marketing
No, but these Chinese "Homage" watches are just are as close to being legal fakes as they are allowed to produce. Until they start making watches from thier own designs, people will treat them as such.
Quite right quality is down to quality control and specifications, doesn’t matter where it is made. Unserviceable movements are nothing to with quality, sustainability though is a different matter….
My favourite? Definitely the SN0074-G. It's a bit different, in a nice way. The lack of minute markers give it a more relaxed vibe when you're not clock-watching. Yes please Santa🎅, I'll have one, thank you 👍
Top work there, time to grab a bargain in the sales and plenty of choice with the last 2x days vids. I don't have a San Martin as yet but the pressure is building. Great mini reviews.
Nice selection Jody but can't help noticing the prices which are becoming very non Aliexpress sale level. I suppose with the finish and quality that you get with San Martin it's to be exected. So many choices to spend the hard earned cash on. Great video as always Jody.👍⌚😎
No contest on FM, as I'm pretty sure the only reason it's got hype behind it it because of watch industry backscratching, but there is a difference between taking design cues from other watches (if no one could do that pretty much 80% of watches would disappear) and making one that seems only 'inspired' by a single model. Not a big fan of Bulova in general but many of their reissues are just bigger, uglier versions of Bulovas from the past. I've got no dog in the fight anyways, as long as they don't make straight up counterfeits SM can make the watches they want and people can wear them and it doesn't bother me.
@@peanutarbuckle2879 oh so that’s how it works !! So the Bulova Super seville just takes design cues from the Rolex day date, I mistakenly thought it was the same exact watch. The Baltic HMS is very different than the Longines as well, I see. It’s just very hilarious how people make up excuses and work arounds backed up by the watch industry blogs and websites. The irony is in the double standards. But I wish I cared as much as these people do.
@@Itsmemulder Wow, I've never seen that Bulova before. That's pretty bad, but it's also been out of production for almost 30 years and comes from an era where half the watches on the market were Rolex copies, but cheaper and usually quartz. Context matters. Longines did not invent the sector dial, it was a style of watch that was very popular in the interwar period. Plenty of examples across history including JLC, Omega etc. I think there's even a number of PP Calatravas with white/silver sector dials. The HMS is different enough from all of the above that I wouldn't call it a copy. Again I'm not upset. Even the so called Longines San Martin copy is to me different enough that I wouldn't call it a copy, just inspired by. Enjoy what you enjoy, friend. Who am I to tell you what to enjoy?
I will definitely buy one of these San Martin watches but my only notice is the twin release in the clasp is huge!!! Looks like wings. I’d still buy them though I will not be doing any wrist roll shots or just avoid looking at the clasp side 😊
The Bell & Ross homage is right up my alley. I have a small wrist though, so more research will be conducted. I love the BR 05 series though, that bracelet it just stunning. Like you though, I can’t justify paying $5000 for a B&R right now. Might be one for me in the future.
San Martin's quality may be well above average, but the prices also follow. An example, watch #8 you’ve reviewed (SN067) in Portugal it costs €265. For that amount I prefer to buy a Seestern whose price is below €100 or a Pagani Design whose difference in some cases is more than €120. I agree, the San Martin can even have a better finish but it is still a homage watch and that doesn't justify the difference between other brands, in my opinion.
If San Martin made a SMP 300 homage complete with scalloped bezel, wavy ceramic dial, red logo text, BGW9 on most parts except for C3 on the minute hand and lume pip, date at the 6, a 12 marker exactly like the SMP 300, and made it so there’s far less up/down bezel play, I would buy ten of them.
Ive got a couple San Martin’s. Amazing quality for the price....my only problem with SM is that once you order a watch a new updated version is released right after 😂 .... and sometimes i like the features or looks of a prior version but then its no longer available.
@@Unwoken_European i have a vintage Citizen with an integrated bracelet design. It's a 32mm diameter, 40mm lug to lug and that one spoiled me. It wears amazingly well and I'd love to have modern equivalent
I ordered the SN006-G2, the tudor submariner homage. I couldn't find any for a decent price, all exceeding well over $600. SM is willing to do custom logo and supply a quality watch for under $400. I had to go for it.
I'm looking for a black explorer in 39mm oyster to replace my old Smiths Everest 40mm which I stupidly sold a few years ago. I have the Smiths Everest Expedition in 37mm in cream, the Sir Vivian Fuchs Commonwealth Trans Antarctic Expedition replica made by Timefactors which is wonderful, I want a black one but availability is tough and as a result the watches sell for 50% plus more on the 2nd hand market than they do from Timefactors. So that Tudor Ranger looks perfect
The problem isn’t with the quality of the watch it is the service. San Martin cannot be reached for issues then they drag it out until Ali Express steps in and drags it’s feet. I returned a watch 10 weeks ago and still haven’t been refunded. It is all “ it is in customs”. Well that is a you problem. I’m out a watch and the return shipping for the wrong watch. 🤦♂️
Good choices! I'm interested in their "BB36" right now, but only if they release a silver dial since I already have blue & green dial watches. And were those thermally blued hands on that freckle dial watch?
At first I’m sad to say that I dismissed San Martin I thought for a Chinese special they where too expensive and not real value for money. Then I bought one, then another and now I see just how good they are! Great round up as usual Jody 🎉🙂
Loving that SN0026 - just realised all my watches have round cases...... like the screws and the crown too .....shame about the date but you're right, there's enough happening already/ That's my pick so far :)
PT5000 and Seagull - I feel like I'm best to absolutely avoid any Chinese movement. Do you also prefer a base seiko NHxx instead, if you have the option?
I wish more brands would try using the Seagull ST3600 which clones the ETA 6497. Beautiful handwind movement, built to last. Some Fliegers, Parnis' and Panerai homages out there but not enough brands are using it.
Jody this question is for you or anyone? Just purchased the new Pagani Design GMT with the new Seiko NH34. Are the hands the same size as the NH35 movement. I would like to put a pair of snowflake hands on it. Tudor GMT/ Rolex look
Jody, love your videos. Would love to see a video (or more!) for us guys with bigger wrists - watches from 43mm and above. Most of these are 40 or below.
I’m with you on the Ranger homage, I’ve been in love with the new Ranger every since I saw it but I thought I was the only one that liked it. According to most reviewers videos they said it was ugly! Can you believe that load of BS?
It's almost literally the only Tudor I've ever considered buying. In fact, I'd kiiiinda decided to actually start trying to budget for one, even though it isn't remotely a practical decision. But now there's one with functionally indestinguishable finishing, for 10% of the price? I face a dilemma!
surprised by the lack of bronze options. They are really pushing out a lot of bronze case options lately, it seems. I have a Oris 65 homage from steeldrive and it's okay, but I really like the bronze case.
My God, San Martin churn out new watches quicker than Energy Companies inflate fuel bills lol. They all look really decent, and you're right...... You can't beat an Orange Dive Watch !!
SM watch finishes are some of the best I've seen! They have lovely sharp transition lines and the polishing looks smik! Ive got a ver1 SN020-G3 and personally, I prefer the printed look better then raised. Cheers
Great video. San Martin do indeed make some great watches, I wish they would produce more original designs as the homage thing downgrades their reputation. Great work as always.
I have a San Martin Titanium fleiger/pilot watch that I picked up a couple of years ago. So I know they've done titanium before. Maybe not grade 5, but it is titanium.
Myyyy gawwwd. How to choose? They are all amazing. I have the old Ranger and this is a real ringer. And the Tudor subbie with the aggressive bezel. They all are wonderful looking. I’m curious about the cost of the custom logo service. I’m betting that my hunting/ fishing group would buy in on this one. Wonder if the custom service would make a decent JOMW episode? A thought. From Mississippi- where I am delivering babies!
Yes, San Martin offers great quality for the money. However, their customer service does not live up to the relatively high prices they charge. If you have any issues with the watch, they won't stand behind it at all, and you'll be out quite a bit of money.
We have been blessed with two chinese specials videos this weekend. What a time to be alive
In the 50’s & 60’s everyone used to scoff at Japanese electronic components…. that is until the world realised that Japan were producing the best on the planet.

Agree. These seem to be well finished but theyre not that great of a deal.
The homage to the Longines heritage pilots watch was my favorite here.
They are only copies when it’s San Martin, but when it’s Furlan Marri, Baltic, Squale or Bulova, they are “amazing alternatives”.

Thank you for reminding me I haven't bought a San Martin this year. Now I've got to decide which one 😅
Some great picks here. I think this year is the one to finally add a SM to my collection.
Thanks, Jodie.
I like the new pronunciation of ‘Martin’. 😊👍
I've been wearing a $7 Paw Patrol children's toy watch for a week now. It's been a hilarious time.
Love the square ones an the Tudor ranger with its non Tudor hands

Thanks so much for your Tireless work Jody. Some great looking watches there in this U tube video.
I’m lucky enough to own 3 Tudors but that ranger looks great IMHO.
Thanks big J
Enjoyable video Jody, for advice which would you choose for a Tudor BB homage, Chronos or San Martin?
I placed an order for the sn0027-t3. I've been wanting a titanium watch and getting a grade 5 version is hard to find. Especially at this price lvl.
That Tudor homage would be my perfect GADA watch if it were a 36mm. I need me a small sports watch
I like to have 38mm sports watch and 36mm dress watch.
@@Unwoken_European i have a vintage Citizen with an integrated bracelet design. It's a 32mm diameter, 40mm lug to lug and that one spoiled me. It wears amazingly well and I'd love to have modern equivalent

Are the Epson movements the same company as Epson printers etc?
They're a subsidiary of the same company, they make the movements for Orient watches.
It looks pretty good. This is how watch brands operated back in the 40's.

Ah the old Jody trick pull out the old USD when we are discussing prices ;)
Always. Unless I'm trying to make something seem expensive, then I talk in AUD 😜
Great vid fam
San Martin's Tudor Ranger clomage is much better looking than their Explorer IMHO. Also looks like they will produce a version in 36mm too!
Jody you should check the Sugess Air Command Homage and the SM fleiger
All are very tempting.
At first I’m sad to say that I dismissed San Martin I thought for a Chinese special they where too expensive and not real value for money.
Then I bought one, then another and now I see just how good they are! Great round up as usual Jody 🎉🙂
Quality is awesome but they kinda lack flair
Number 5 is awesome 👍
I'm drawn to the bronze-case fliegers SM also have, at $140.80 with YN55.

Got an SN047, date non functional.. my first and maybe my last. The portents are poor and a new one is on the way but cost me $60 to ship back!
Love the last one, just wish it wasn't a random 21mm lug width.
PT5000 and Seagull - I feel like I'm best to absolutely avoid any Chinese movement. Do you also prefer a base seiko NHxx instead, if you have the option?

Umm Jody, just between us, I went almost this entire video thinking your shirt said "The Bad B!tch" 🤣🤣
Looks like I'm gonna have to pull the plug and get one of those San Martin everyone is talking about.

Great video, there’s also a 36mm version of the explorer series which Is good if you have a smaller wrist
San Martin: How many watches will you review for the next sponsored video?
Jody: Yes.
Pity the SN0027 on the website is only one option - the bezel with the minute markers between 0 and 15 unlike the cleaner bezel on Jody's sample
The Ranger is superb 👍
surprised by the lack of bronze options. They are really pushing out a lot of bronze case options lately, it seems. I have a Oris 65 homage from steeldrive and it's okay, but I really like the bronze case.
Nice review Jody, the only one I like is the retro pilot.
Love your posts. That Longines Heritage inspired piece is really tempting. How’s JOMW Jr doing
Really like the 1st one but if I was to get one on this list it would probably be the diver with orange dial.
Great video!
Jody, any idea or guess when San Martin may come out with a GMT using the new Seiko movement?
My God, San Martin churn out new watches quicker than Energy Companies inflate fuel bills lol. They all look really decent, and you're right...... You can't beat an Orange Dive Watch !!
can anyone tell how can i order these watches in india aliexpress dosen't ship these to india
SM watch finishes are some of the best I've seen! They have lovely sharp transition lines and the polishing looks smik! Ive got a ver1 SN020-G3 and personally, I prefer the printed look better then raised. Cheers
Great video. San Martin do indeed make some great watches, I wish they would produce more original designs as the homage thing downgrades their reputation.
Great work as always.
You really need to try and review the SN0075 GB
Dammit ... I really like that 1st watch !
I have a San Martin Titanium fleiger/pilot watch that I picked up a couple of years ago. So I know they've done titanium before. Maybe not grade 5, but it is titanium.
The San Martin 62 mas chrono. Why don’t you review that?
Great video Jody!!!!
Aliexpress watches are equal to microbrands with the exception of the swiss made ones like laventure.
Don't think so. My San Martin GMT blows my Steinhart GMT Classic 39 out of the water. For half the price.
@@KK879-t5x is it truly that good? I personally think steinhart parts are chinese.
@@Beck-Stein quality wise they're not bad but all their dials are flat (no applied indices), bezels are stiff and clasp is garbage.
What is that book shelf
3 and 10 are very good watches, i guess.
Myyyy gawwwd. How to choose? They are all amazing. I have the old Ranger and this is a real ringer. And the Tudor subbie with the aggressive bezel. They all are wonderful looking.

Thanks for such great content
Would you consider reviewing a newer Baltic Jody? Thanks!
If you don’t have a bronze diver, the CuSn 8 is a BB58 bronze knockoff at $285, a no brainer.
Morning jody, yeah not my bag, but I do like the gmt, shame it's not the NH34
Nice presentation, beautiful watches but will cost me another 20% shipped from China better buy a Seiko or an Orient from a local distributor.
The SN0105 is awesome.
Personally, without a date, that just kills the desire for me to get a watch. Thanks for the great video as per usual!
I believe the Tudor 1959 submariner had a 'snowflake' hour hand, so it's not just the modern Tudors
Yes, San Martin offers great quality for the money. However, their customer service does not live up to the relatively high prices they charge. If you have any issues with the watch, they won't stand behind it at all, and you'll be out quite a bit of money.
