One of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to SM is due to their preference for smaller sizes. I have a modest 6" wrist so wearing watches below 40 is a must..
I've been waiting ages for a decent non-homage, affordable rootbeer gmt. I love this watch and the fact that san martin did a nice version of this is amazing
I've owned the black version of this watch for the past 4 months. Unbelievable timepiece. I fall in love with it more and more every day. This root beer colourway is outstanding!!!!
Their SN0115/0116 and their SN0129 lines are some of the best watches on sale period, not just some of the best San Martin Watches on sale. Great review as always and good luck to all.
That color is awesome, especially with the brown leather band. BTW I love that we can always hear birds when you do the wrist shots. 😊 Thank you for the chance to win this watch!!!
That is one beautiful watch! I struggled making up my mind between this, and the Pepsi model, and before I knew it, the sale was over! lol Hopefully I win this! Thanks for your generosity, and the great review, Steve!
I just got their SN0109 BB GMT and then ordered their jubilee style bracelet to pair with it. I love their attention to detail with the GMT’s they sell. Bi-directional Bezels, proper color to the aluminum inserts, 24 clicks! Other homage brands mostly use the same cookie cutter bezel with the unidirectional 120 click and glossy ceramic insert 🤮. Those small details are what make me love San Martins watches! Love the content you are putting out! Your channel has the best format to how a watch review is done. The coolest part is the strap show you do for every watch. I love swapping straps so I can appreciate the time and effort you put in to show off how a watch looks on alternative straps! Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you so much for the support, man. I was so tempted to get that 109 on jubilee...it's a beautiful pairing indeed. They do indeed get the little details right. Looking forward to seeing what they come out with next! Good luck in the drawing tomorrow! 🤜🤛
I wasn’t too excited about this SM model until you reviewed this root beer version. I must say that this looks great. Thanks for a great review as always.
Love this San Martin. Every sale I put the blue version in my cart, but just haven't pulled the trigger...yet...soon :). Thanks for all the great videos.
This is an absolutely gorgeous watch! I have only owned quartz and have been looking for my first mechanical watch. This might just be the one for me. Thank you for your amazing review!
I was pleasantly surprised to watch your strap show with this piece! Thanks for showing us all the different combinations which is helpful to a lot of people that do not prefer bracelets 😄
I am watching this video while carrying mine SN007X and these two watches have the same case profile. I see the coin edge bezel is better on the SN0116. This is the best color you got. The red one comes as a second but root beer is just amazing. The bracelet is awesome it fits the watch like a glove. I am always happy to see thr beeds of rice because it has that vintage look and the links are short, what makes the bracele easier to fit. If only San Martin did use the Miyota 9075 this watch would blow away all those expenisve high- end micros from swiss and some other well known brands. The San Martin makes the best watches for the money. Period. I wish you all good luck and big shout to Steve for the watch review and give away and one big thank you in front of us all.
Really nice looking watch! I think the gold hands stand out better than the silver, making them seem a little bigger. Thank you for the thorough review and the chance to win it.
I think SM have found a winner here with this case shape and size. With different bracelets/dials & bezels there are so many watches that can be made. Thank you for the chance to win the watch - its very much appreciated.
Watching your videos made me buy my first AliX watch (Seestern S434). Been interested in San Martin watches especially their original designs. Great video!
Absolutely stunning. San Martin have been claiming a good portion of my wallet, and they've never let me down. I'm glad they're branching out of using the NH34 for simple homages, and the shift back to aluminum bezels is helping to make their original pieces much more timeless!
I really like how San Martin start to create their own design. This is a huge step to become a respected micro brand. I like this model. Thanks for the review.
I’m currently on the hunt for an affordable watch to commemorate a recent achievement and have been looking at add a new Seiko to the collection or to add the first San Martin. This particular model is stunning! Size and colors are just perfect.
I love these collaborations between SanMartin anc Watchdives. Just purchased the blue SN0121B GMT. One of the best watches in my collection. Thanks for this video, it's always a pleasure.
Someone mentioned the similarity between this and the Lorier Hyperion which I find very interesting. Makes you wonder where Lorier is having their cases manufactured. Either way it is a rather striking, classic silhouette and design
Man of your word. Much respect. Love what you are doing for the watch community. Of course, a fantastic watch. I hope SM continues to explore the original designs even more.
Rootbeer color schemes have always been a personal favorite of mine. Love what San Martin has been doing with the brand, and another great review as usual!
I was waiting for this root beer review and I am in love after seing it. I Will try to wait afterCNY in order to push « buy » ahah. This bezel is stunning and this is an original design !
Your reviews are very well structured, and the wrist shots and strap show section really help show how it would wear. This change got me into Chinese watches and I look forward to seeing you continue!
This one is a definite keeper! Always loved the rootbeer colorway and this one is just perfect to me :) Much love from Germany, Turd and thanks for all the work you do!
Love root beer theme watches. Amazing how fine the details are with all the chamfered edges down to the clasp buttons making this watch seem very comfortable to wear.
Beautiful watch. It looks so much better in real life than in the website photos. Both the colours on offer look great and it's a hard choice which one to go for. SM are really starting to do some good things with their newer, more original designs. Really nice photography Steve, it showcases the watch the way it deserves to be seen.
This colorway with the gold accents really works and the brown strap a very good alternative. Also, this case, bracelet combination is a winner for SM. Would like to own it. Good luck to all subs. Regards
Thanks for the awesome review as always! This one is a stunner for sure, would definitely be proud to show this off some day! I don't currently own anything from San Martin but have always admired them
Thanks for the thorough review! I appreciated the pacing and amount of time you spent on each aspect of the watch. Glad to know these feel as good as they look.
Like you I have always liked the Rootbeer colorway. Some of the colorways I can take it or leave it but this one knocks it out of the park. The size, colors, the beads of rice bracelet, gilt hands, the date at 6 o'clock, this one San Martin got right! Great review, thank you so much, keep up the great work!
I’ve been looking at these Aliexpress watches as a first “proper watch” for years now. I’m interested in the pagani gmt, however after seeing this video and competition I’m holding fire! Would absolutely love this as I’ve always liked GMT’s but there’s so few for a fair price, with water resistance, which actually look nice.
Great review and thanks for the chance of winning this. I do think it's the best colourway out of them all and I do prefer aluminium bezel insert. I agree about the logo, either print it or cut through the applied one so its so less distracting. SM have done a great job though.
Nice review, m sure this sm gmt wil b a fine pc on anybodys wrist. 1st saw ur videos last qrtr '23. Liked it btr than so many others bcoz of d way u start it, revue is incise n systematic, clear vid n audio, u talk"easy" -not over d top nor boring, incidental/corollary info is casually given. M sure there wil be more n more viewers. Tnx
Winner has been chosen, and the watch has been sent out.
Thanks to everyone who watched and left a comment!
I'll have to do another one soon!!
Man I'm surprised people know how to find those 🤣
apparently they don't. haven't heard from the winner yet!
Hello, where did you announced the winner ? I didn’t see the reveal video 🤔
How do you tell people they won out of curiosity?
@@nordicline2754 I reply directly their comment. Then they email me from that account so I can see everything matches. I just had someone email me and say it was them who won with a fake account 🤦. Some people...
One of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to SM is due to their preference for smaller sizes. I have a modest 6" wrist so wearing watches below 40 is a must..
I wish they had the Starbucks gmt homage below 40. As of now it’s huge but when they release a smaller version I’ll for sure pick one up.
Did you try this watch? I have same wrist size, so im worried it would be too big for me :/
I have the same question
I've been waiting ages for a decent non-homage, affordable rootbeer gmt. I love this watch and the fact that san martin did a nice version of this is amazing
The fact that they’ve kept these watches right on the $300 mark is amazing. Case finishing, use of materials, and packaging is all so dang good.
The rootbeer is the best variant imo, I hope san martin continue exploring their original design venture and make awesome piece like this
I've owned the black version of this watch for the past 4 months. Unbelievable timepiece. I fall in love with it more and more every day. This root beer colourway is outstanding!!!!

These new watches from San Martin are amazing. I don't miss any of your videos. You provide in depth reviews.
Thank you
Steve, you’re one of the few reviewers that does a great strap show! Keep up the great work
This is by far the best SanMartin I've seen and I'd love to have it 😊
That is one beautiful watch! I struggled making up my mind between this, and the Pepsi model, and before I knew it, the sale was over! lol Hopefully I win this! Thanks for your generosity, and the great review, Steve!

One of San Martin's best looking watches ever ! Great review as usual
This is one of my favorite watches from San Martin, the colorway is nicely vintage looking which goes great with the design of the rest of the watch
The color palette and the aluminum bezel in this one make a stunning watch! Never had a GMT before, but if I had to choose one, this would be it
Definitely this is my favorite San Martin design. That root beer tone looks so good. Great watch, and great review. Thank you !
The transition from the lug tips into the bracelet is so smooth
Thanks for the super review and giveaway.
I don't normally win in competitions, but am keeping my fingers crossed that I am lucky on this occasion 🤞
This is an absolutely gorgeous watch! I have only owned quartz and have been looking for my first mechanical watch. This might just be the one for me. Thank you for your amazing review!
Its the little things but seeing the seconds hand painted red on one side and a small arrow on the other puts a smile on my face
I was pleasantly surprised to watch your strap show with this piece! Thanks for showing us all the different combinations which is helpful to a lot of people that do not prefer bracelets 😄
Another great watch from San Martin. As always quality review from you. Sending love.
They make some great watches. Great to see this one.
Great review! Great looking watch! San Martin is really stepping up!
Love this san Martin, especially detail on the dial. And that look and sound of the rotating bezel 🤌.

Phenomenal colours and finishing on the SN0016 line.
Specs, quality and design are on point, what else could I ask for? Maybe to win it!!! Hahaha thanks a lot for the opportunity!
That's seriously good looking, I'm glad San Martin seems to be trying out these types of designs
I think SM have found a winner here with this case shape and size. With different bracelets/dials & bezels there are so many watches that can be made.
Thank you for the chance to win the watch - its very much appreciated.
This is the colour combination that I have been waiting for on this model. Excellent piece.

Get a nice San Martin. I have the high end Swiss suspects, but the San Martin GMT's are amazing for the money, super quality and finishes.
Phenomenal looking watch. Really impressed the growth that SM have gone through over the past 5 years! Would love to add this to the collection.
I love these collaborations between SanMartin anc Watchdives. Just purchased the blue SN0121B GMT. One of the best watches in my collection. Thanks for this video, it's always a pleasure.

If you still have he Hyperion would you be able to do a head to head review
Really nice looking watch. Thanks for all you do for the community, Steve!
Appreciate the close-up shots - they really show off how high the standard of finishing is on this watch!
Was never a big fan of the Pepsi.....but always loved the RootBeer. Great to see San Martin use this color way.
Man of your word. Much respect.
Love what you are doing for the watch community.
Of course, a fantastic watch. I hope SM continues to explore the original designs even more.
San Martin is continually listening to their consumers and the watches show it. Thanks for the review
Oh the way the SN0016 plays with light is just captivating!
Rootbeer color schemes have always been a personal favorite of mine. Love what San Martin has been doing with the brand, and another great review as usual!

Great to see more originality from San Martin, love this colorway!
Beautiful piece! I appreciate your thoroughness and consistency with these reviews.
This GMT watch looks great. Thanks very much for your giveaways, giving back to your subscribers is a generous move on your part. Good luck all!
I always liked the blue dial but would be it unsuitable for most occasions, this colour combination is spot on.
Your reviews are very well structured, and the wrist shots and strap show section really help show how it would wear. This change got me into Chinese watches and I look forward to seeing you continue!
These San Martin GMTs check so many boxes. Didn't even know i had a root beer box until I saw this video Steve 😂
This one is a definite keeper! Always loved the rootbeer colorway and this one is just perfect to me :)
Much love from Germany, Turd and thanks for all the work you do!
I always like the way you show the watches on different straps. It makes such a difference
Perfect color combination! Great review as always, Steve!
Love root beer theme watches. Amazing how fine the details are with all the chamfered edges down to the clasp buttons making this watch seem very comfortable to wear.
Beautiful watch. Thank you for the great review, and best of luck with your excellent YT channel.

SM are really starting to do some good things with their newer, more original designs. Really nice photography Steve, it showcases the watch the way it deserves to be seen.
San Martin slowly moving into creating their own special designs ! Love it !
I bought my first San Martin watch, SN0036, during the 11-11 sale, and now I understand why everyone praises their case finishing. It's just superb.
Very generous of you to give that stunner away. Love the no nonsense reviews you give. Keep up the good work.
Been waiting for a non standard colorway. This really standouts, beautiful watch. Great review
This colorway with the gold accents really works and the brown strap a very good alternative. Also, this case, bracelet combination is a winner for SM. Would like to own it. Good luck to all subs. Regards
I’ve been waiting for this review so thank you, what an amazing looking watch.
That bezel insert color is beautiful
Your lighting and close up shots are fantastic. One really gets a true feel for the watch. Thank you and keep up the great content.
I like the look of this! Really appreciate you giving back to the community.
Lovely looking watch,and you know the finishing will be of a high standard. Thanks for an excellent review. Keep up the good work !
Love the rootbeer color way with the gold and really appreciate that you showed it on different straps. Thanks for the thorough review!
I have heard nothing but praise for the build quality of SM watches. Curious to try one for myself!
The sharp-pointed lugs combined with the beads of rice bracelet create an elegant look!
really nice looking watch, like the other recent san martin releases, and an original design for once
Thanks for the awesome review as always! This one is a stunner for sure, would definitely be proud to show this off some day! I don't currently own anything from San Martin but have always admired them
Great watch! Love the color combo
Thanks for the thorough review! I appreciated the pacing and amount of time you spent on each aspect of the watch. Glad to know these feel as good as they look.

The size, colors, the beads of rice bracelet, gilt hands, the date at 6 o'clock, this one San Martin got right! Great review, thank you so much, keep up the great work!
I have to agree with you on how good the case profile look. They did an excellent job on this one.
I hope I win! Been wanting this one! Thanks for all the honest reviews over the years
The beads of rice bracelet pairing just shines, in my opinion. The perfect look to go with its style.
I’ve been looking at these Aliexpress watches as a first “proper watch” for years now. I’m interested in the pagani gmt, however after seeing this video and competition I’m holding fire! Would absolutely love this as I’ve always liked GMT’s but there’s so few for a fair price, with water resistance, which actually look nice.
Definitely one of San Martin's nicest models right now! Thank you for the giveaway and all the reviews!
On the dark brown strap the brown tones get highlighted so much and is perfect for styling
I love the unique take with the BOR bracelet. It’s obvious what inspired it, but it’s not a copy. Great watch!
Love the look of this RootBeer model. Well done San Martin. Great review Steve.
Great review and thanks for the chance of winning this. I do think it's the best colourway out of them all and I do prefer aluminium bezel insert. I agree about the logo, either print it or cut through the applied one so its so less distracting. SM have done a great job though.
What a beautiful warm color! I wish that this kind of bezel insert can be added to the retro vintage collection. Great review like always, Sr!
Great release from San Martin! Good to see them continue with their original designs.
Nice review, m sure this sm gmt wil b a fine pc on anybodys wrist. 1st saw ur videos last qrtr '23. Liked it btr than so many others bcoz of d way u start it, revue is incise n systematic, clear vid n audio, u talk"easy" -not over d top nor boring, incidental/corollary info is casually given.

Great size, love the color (and that they have a bunch of others for those who want that), and that bracelet is amazing!
Awesome review. Great work as always Steve! Thanks for being such an ambassador for Chinese watches!
This watch and colour way is so classy. I m not the biggest fan of that style of bracelet usually, but this absolutely works here
I'd love this watch. Of all the colourways, this one speaks the most to me.
Oh wow. I hadn't really had much interest in this watch until I saw this colorway. Phenomenal.
