There are many great all rouders that can be worn as a daily wear watch. For well under $200 on sale, this San Martin makes a decent case for itself. Good size, comfortable, well made ane well finished, great lume and a known quantity for a movement. Maybe some brighter colours next time, a bigger clasp, and put some effort into the caseback! Cheers, Jody

It might be because we have proper summer here (for a few days) here in The Netherlands, but these look spot on for summer attire. Something with light tones short sleeves and bermudas.
Its everyday summer here in SEA. I cant ever imagine to be anyone that ask for 'more summer'.
@@bigboiganiga8356 here in Western Europe we basically have autumn/winter weather like 8 months a year, so we cherish the warmer months a lot more of course
This one is a great pick up from San Martin! I have had a black one on the suede strap for a couple of months now, and it has been performing quite well. The Epson movement is a solid movement that is keeping accurate time.
I bought one of these, green dial. I’m really impressed with it. Gains about half a second a day. The finishing is perfect, and I have to say, I normally like interesting engravings on a full metal screw on case back, but I would say that San Martin have done a better job than Rolex, with the grooves for opening it and the brushed finishing I think they’ve captured a simplicity that goes very well with a flight / tool watch. It takes it back to basics whilst throwing in a little decoration on the dial and bezel. Beautiful, and really good value. This is the type of watch I would wear as a daily.
Jody, this looks like an homage to the OrientStar "Explorient"
ar
Strangely appealing to me this one, San Martin mostly always deliver a great watch for the $’s
Is it just me, or have 'affordable' daily wears have doubled in price?
It's not just you. Unfortunately, the age of 60 dollar Seiko 5s is a thing of the past. However, you can still get good Chinese options in the 50-100 dollar range that make good daily. Just not San Martin really.
Peanuts to RUclipsrs
No they have definitely doubled in price unless you want a basic Casio then they haven't changed much.
@@danieljones3683 Here the Casio have gone up to 1.5x in the last two years. :\ And they're going to revise their prices again at the end of 2023.
Still a lot cheaper than Panerai😂
Arghh, it would drive me nuts not knowing whether that day/date wheel was set correctly 😄
this!
I love all my san martin watches.
They, for some reason, are my favorite watch company .
I'd pick the green 😊
Love the dial. Simple, elegant. Easy to read.
these are beautiful. I love the green one the most
Quite attractively styled, I must admit. The Burgundy and Green are nice colourways, too. Still, in this genre it's hard to take my attention away from Oris' Big Crown series. I'd love to see more coin edge watches, in different shapes, rhythms, and dimensions. Here I regret that the onion-pumpkin doesn't seem congruent with the smallis coin edge so close by. Generally I find it harder to love dials that mix numerals and markers, but that's clearly a personal problem. Not sure what to think of the movement, but for the price hardly a great concern. The great thing about watches like this is that they make the underside of the market still a fun place to play in. It's a price that beats many decent quartz micros and certainly San Martin has proven to outdo it's price bracket in terms of finishing. Ultimately, for me, it just doesn't really get me excited and I miss both more design confidence and subtle refinements. As we know, each to their own. I do like San Martin is developing away from pure homages.
This video of yours sold me on this watch. Got the black on the bracelet. Received it and It’s superb. Gorgeous and even nicer and more legible than my explorer type watch. Love the large face on a 39.5 mm case. Bracelet is excellent. Accurate time. Thanks for the video. Love this watch!
Yeah. The black and the burgundy are solid daily drivers for that price.
Reminds me of a Sinn 553. Love the looks, but yeah, that strap would have to go. Swap it for a Barton leather and it would be good to go for another $30.
I miss the time graph segment.
Agree on the black one, do you keep all those colorways? Or you just send the 3 and keep one…
“San Martin for some reason decided to send me all four of them.” Maybe they looked at a well liked, value-oriented RUclips watch influencer with 272k subscribers and thought a couple of hundred bucks was a good PR expenditure. *lol* Anyway, nice review, and I like subtle Sinn and Hahnhart vibes I’m getting off this one. They did a nice job with the dial, and score for the “third-party” Orient 6922 movement, I love it. And yes, the F6922’s wind is definitely gritty, but very accurate for the money.
this is a beauty. love the burgundy yellow. I dont own any san martin yet but I could see myself going for this one day.
Ordered the black with bracelet for myself as a father's day gift ; ) Cost $157 USD total to NY. I almost spent more on the SN0020-G2, SN0107-G3, SN0107-G6, SN020-G4, SN0021-G-B2, or SN0023-G. Mostly because of the 4 hole micro adjustment clasp, but legibility was my top priority (followed by $$$.) I can always upgrade the bracelet later...
San Martin sells the clasps separately, so you don't have to buy another bracelet if you ever need that, just the clasp. They also have on the fly adjustment clasp, I bought one recently and it is great quality! Cheers from SN020 enjoyed!)
@@incognito1066 That is very helpful, thank you!
Perfect caseback for inscribing.
The burgundy is my fav.
This would make a great dress watch!
That burgundy is lovely. I also like the green, it's got a bit of blue in it making it a quite interesting colour.
These are made to look like the Nomos Club line, around 3k to 4k a piece. The club campus watches are cheaper at 1500-2000 dollars but have a mixed Cali dial.
Nice watches, on the strength of this review I bought the beige one, quite a unique colourway, on a suede strap for just 150 euros. The dial is really very beautiful but it's not matte, in sunlight it has a very subtle sparkle to it. Quite pleased with it
Good to hear that! A really pretty thing isn't it? Cheers!
I've had my eye on these for a while. The black dial with the red second accents. Will eventually purchase this one down the line.
These are really great looking watches! The only one I don’t covet is the teal/orange, but Random “Miami” Rob will like that one. Thanks for the video, Jody.
Bought this watch, black with SS bracelet. Thank you for featuring it. I’ve been looking for a very legible Rolex Explorer design watch in its original style and this San Marin was perfect with very similar specs (even 100 meters WR)! Even more legible. Did I get my math wrong or does the San Martin actually cost less than 2% of the price of a Rolex Explorer? No matter how I tried, your coupon code didn’t work. Eventually I used another code that did give me $10 off.
I’ve learned through watch collecting that in order for me to have a “keeper” it needs to have wearability otherwise the watch just doesn’t get worn.
There is no point in having a watch you don’t wear unless for sentimental reasons. With 2 lousy micro adjusts this is an easy no for me.
These are very similar to the Islander ISL-54, which I already own. The colors on the San Martin are nice but I prefer my Islander, which is in the same price range. I like the 40mm size of the Islander and the bezel design much better. Plus Marc has the date guts removed from the NH movement so you don't get the clicking in the ghost position.
I see what you mean but I think this watch is more elegant, less tool-watchy; the dial in partic. (I’m not a hater! I love my red Islander Fleiger with the red band. Wow.)
@@johnsrabe I usually gravitate for the more tool-y option myself. I don’t dislike the San Martin, just really like my Islander more. There would be no variety in life if we all agreed on everything. Enjoy!
@@michaelkeefer4293 Amen to that! If everybody liked the same things, we’d run out of butter pecan ice cream all the time!
I also tend to wear vintage sportcoats, which - it just dawned on me - explains my preference. I do wish these came on better leather. Suede gets tatty so fast.
Apples and oranges. This is not the SM model you should be comparing the Islander with.
They do good watches. If only they could do a decent logo.
I really like the green one actually it reminds me of a Farer
Another great design from San Martin!, I'm diggin' the size, style and usual superlative fit and finish. I have no problem with the YN55, I have two other watches with it, and they've been reliable and keep good time. Shame about the clasp. San Martin needs to throw the two-holers in the trash. I wonder if they'd let me substitute their excellent, new on-the-fly adjustable clasp. Then I'd be totally on board! Thanks, Jodi!
Always enjoy your review. This reminds me of my Sinn 556A RS for red seconds
That’s very nice, just don’t care for the fluted bezel myself. Good it’s a no date and the size is perfect. Far too near a Sinn 556a too so just could not buy one. Love the Sinn but a slight price difference and that has a bloody date hmmm… maybe the fluted bezel I could live with! 😅
Super clean. Team Burgundy & Yellow here! (Kinda looks black on camera…)
I agree the black one is definitely the best
I don’t like how the ‘1’ on the 12 is just the same baton index recycled and used as ‘1’.
Reminds me of a Traska summiter
Its probably just me, but i wish it had a date, even at 430, like the Sinn 556a, and even if it upsets the design a bit. 1) my everyday watch needs a date. 2) since youve got a movement with a date wheel, might as well use it.
That green is singing to me, “Blow your money on me. Get another watch you don’t need. Yeasss.”
Not too shabby .at all. I like them of them .
Just love San Martin watches after you were kind enough to introduce me. Nice one Jody 👍
I’m guna pop on one of those. Thanks to the case size.
I really like it. I normally dont like SM too much because they're chonky and their beat pieces are homages, buy this reminds me of certain watches I'd love to have but with enough originality.
I'd be juat perdect if they fix some of the stuff that Jody said, like the backcase and the microadjustments
My second purchase from Ali Express has been a disaster, looks like the watch got lost before it left Mainland China, now I'm dealing with getting a refund. I was really looking forward to experiencing the San Martin quality too, it was a 1957 Homage.
You have to get one of the new Buyalov "Sevmorput" divers from Russia. They are gorgeous! 😀
36mm would have been amazing
Nice and simple watch. Colors are pretty attractive . I do wish it had a date. I know some people don’t like that but when your competing for the wrist real estate I prefer to get as much info as I can on my wrist.
No TOS klaxon? I kind of missed it :)
Love the brown one, this might be a future pick up.
Well done San Martin for supplying all four colourways. I really do like the burgundy dial. It's a similar colour and appearance to the Oris Pointer Date. I like the 5 minute markers matching the second hand too. I may actually grab one of these. A bronze one of these would be nice - just like the Oris, but $2300 less. Ghost dates feel horrid, but at this price it's ok - set it, keep wearing it, and you won't even know.
I don’t think you answered this in the video. Does it have a big dial?
Wish they did the new bb38 with applied logo like these
Are they selling these with the NH35 now?
Great looking watch. I wish it was a little bigger, but otherwise ticks all the boxes for me.
Oris and sinn vibes this gives me.
Heck, that one seems like a good watch for people who are not into watches!
I think they look good
man that is SO close to being an insta-buy from me. I just dont like the bezel and crown (and the microadjust)
san martin is quality
Finally they realize not every dial nees a depth rating. Looks so much better .
The green one on the suede has been calling to me since I first saw it, so I finally ordered it. Makes the fourth watch I've ordered this month lol.
Pre-ordered the Primitive Haus Type-A, green dial version, after your video the other day. Ordered an Islander Northport #ISL-155 after it finally came back in stock. And finally bought my first G-Shock, a GLX-5600RT-4ER.
Today would have been my second AE purchase - if I could get the website to let me add a delivery address, or use my Paypal default address since AE won't save my address details ... I have no idea how purchase no1 a couple years back [another Jody recommendation] was processed at the time to the same address
Kinda like oris swiss hunter ps team edition
I want to by a replica summarina where please?
Great t-shirt doc.
It's 09:05 on a Monday morning, but there's always a free minute for a JOMW quickie.
Wow. Very nice.
Not bad.
I miss the warning siren
love the videos jody
Yes
Very nice Oris supplement!
Exactly what I thought.
Yeah, weird to see more than one people mention Tudor on a Oris homage video🤣
Thanks once again Jody. I picked this up on the Burgundy strap a couple of months ago. Very comfortable & nice watch.
I almost bought one of these with the burgundy dial at the last AE sale - but I got put off by the clasp... I did contact San Martin to see if they would change the clasp - not surprisingly - no dice! So, I have gone for a different burgundy option which is on its way to me now...
I definitely plan on picking up the Type B Flieger that comes in the same case. That’s impressive that they sent you all four colors. Not hugely into colored dials, but I like the deep red for this one. Thanks for the great review as always.
I have a 38mm watch with a narrow bezel but I find that the large dial makes it look larger and I'm almost embarrassed to wear it in public.
Awesome as always
Hmm no siren. It was strange that it didn't follow the statement, "You saw the pop-up"
Meh. This leave me flat...like a dull piece of sapphire... thengreen reminds me of 1970s Puma sneakers for some reason... great video as per usual!
$241 on leather and $279 on bracelet but a $15 discount ,, this is AUD $ ,,, not enough savings for me , but thanks for the review .
I have a similar 38mm San Martin flirger with this style bracelet and clasp...the bracelet really is awful because of the lack of micro-adjust. The case was also so sharp it was unwearable and I don't flip watches, so I ended up taking a dremel to the super sharp lugs..
I own 2 San Martins, and I regret buying both of them. I like the look of a lot of their watches, but I woluldn't risk buying another one.
Should look great with a blazer on casual Fridays
Часы очень красивые, но для меня слишком маленькие... У меня запястье всего 17 см,но для меня лучший размер 43мм...
We have a mishmash of ‘borrowed’ design elements with this one: bezel from Hanhart, numerals from Citizen, hands and crown from German fliegers like Laco or Stowa. Not impressed!
I'm not really feeling it with this release. Is that a sapphire crystal?
Nice.🍓🍓🍓
Yeah IDK, I'm unconvinced by these. The colours look fun, but I'm not keen on the bezel and the numerals are just too big, for me. Not sure the bracelet style really suits this watch, either.
I have however just picked up my very first SM, and coincidentally a pilot's watch too... I went for the A-type flieger 41mm. Still can't bring myself to pick up an homage watch from them (I think the flieger gets a pass). Keen to see how their famous quality stands up at the $200AUD price.
Brown is very nice, as is green. On my list
Welcome to GM HELL Sir ,,,,TY,,,,,,WOW incredible very interesting great information super kool,
AAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++ again great video I liked it a lot ,keep up the great work
Nice pieces but lost me with the 👻 pull on the 👑. 😒
Numero uno
Great review Jody but….it’s not my cup of tea.😮
47.7mm lug to lug .... too long for me
I'm looking at I&W Carnival, the already reviewed diver, the awaiting review gmt & a Genta looking every piece or two. Great content 😊 , as ever. Always looking for the next installment
Not with that logo
$310 NZD not really a daily watch is it?
That bezel ....
Thanks but no thanks
I've an islander which is an absolute ringer for this one except it has the nh35 inside and to me is a better buy, 36mm would be nice and 2 holes of adjustment is a joke.
I think I've found the Father's Day watch.
