      @@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...

    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.

  • @mikelgrant105
    @mikelgrant105 8 месяцев назад +23

    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..

    • @ColdComrade
      @ColdComrade 8 месяцев назад

      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.

    The rootbeer is the best variant imo, I hope san martin continue exploring their original design venture and make awesome piece like this

  • @adk7962
    @adk7962 8 месяцев назад +7

    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.

    @fernandofrias5415 8 месяцев назад

    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!

    @PpaStrmpf 8 месяцев назад

    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.

    @nordicline2754 8 месяцев назад

    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!

    • @EscapeWheel
      @EscapeWheel  8 месяцев назад +1

      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!
