    I don't think that most entry level basic mechanical movements are much to look at, so for me, I prefer nicely embossed solid case backs. Nice review.

    Excellent reviews by ‘ Shiny things ‘ I thank you for your excellent channel my friend.
    I recently received the SM SN0118 with the brown kind of cafe color bezel with the mint green dial and the mesh bracelet and mini clasp that is partially on the fly adjustable clasp to 7.5 wrist size on my wrist. The watch is very nicely done and I give the watch a passing grade of 8.75 out of 10 point scale. Rick in Florida.

    I paid 10 days ago with the mesh bracelet a fair price of $214.00 U S dollars. Thank you every time for your excellent channel and reviews. Your friend in Florida, Rick

    I bought the watch as soon as it came out. And it's a stunner. Exibition caseback wouldn't add anything IMO, NH35 is fine with me.

    Are you related to Wes Watches channel? You 2 look like brothers both good channels, you should do a colab it would be like the Matrix glitching. Cheers

    the miyota 9000 is great but SM will charge 400 and more. what really bothers me is ghost date position on the crown..
    this one could've been perfect if the date was at 6. keep these coming SM love it!

    Great review as always - thanks. Now awaiting delivery of the blue dial/ orange bezel!

  • @julianb1474
    @julianb1474 3 месяца назад +6

    I bought the Blue/Orange version 4 weeks ago with the orange strap and love it. My only gripe is that right now this looks like a fake "sale" since the sale price is identical to what I paid. It's not cheap, but then no SM is. The NH35 is a reliable and rugged movement that can be extremely accurate. There's too much snobbery around it IMO.

      My only gripe is that they haven't shipped mine yet 😅 It seems like they were super popular at the last sale and orders are a little backed up.

  • @carlosfilipegt
    @carlosfilipegt 3 месяца назад +4

    Je possède la mienne depuis 4 jours, c'est ma première Sain Martin et maintenant je comprends mieux pourquoi tout le monde parle bien de cette marque, c'est sans doute une très bonne montre avec une qualité remarquable pour le prix....... pourquoi payer plus ! Très bon vidéo comme d'habitude.

    I'd love a better movement and display case back.

    • @ShinyThings
      @ShinyThings  3 месяца назад +5

      @marcjames3487 I've been complaining about their clasps for years, and now they have, possibly, the best clasp for the price! Maybe, they will eventually do a display case back and a better movement too 🤞 Thanks for watching! 🙂👍

      @younusimam-thesalamproject6340 3 месяца назад +4

      I think they really should have a caseback option. Easiest way to show people the value of a mechanical watch.

    • @andreilungu1136
      @andreilungu1136 3 месяца назад +4

      Than just go with the Citizen. They have awesome movements with amazing accuracy (automatics with Myota 90xx). I have 3 Citizens automatic, one being a diver titanium, and all of them run consistently +/- 10 sec./week.

      These are directly related to price, would you be happy paying the extra 15-20% ?

      SN019-G, yes it is a Submeriner copy but it has SW200

    I've got this watch, and to be honest I think your review is spot on.

  • @shootsouthpaw7771
    @shootsouthpaw7771 2 месяца назад

    I see more Citizen Promaster than Rolex. You're really buying it only for looks. Otherwise under the hood it's just another common Chinese spec'd out NH with a waffle strap. Same movement, steel, crystal, etc as all the others costing much much less.

  • @younusimam-thesalamproject6340
    @younusimam-thesalamproject6340 3 месяца назад +3

    There are several SMs that i would have bought, but they dont have an exhibition caseback. I prefer a caseback because seeing the movement is so enjoyable. PT5000 also exists as an option. Runs well in my Proxima

    • @alfredthegreat9543
      @alfredthegreat9543 3 месяца назад +1

      How often do you look at the movement and for how much time?

    • @unwokeneuropean3590
      @unwokeneuropean3590 3 месяца назад

      I don't like it. It always brings 1mm more to the thickness.

  • @christopherhall2897
    @christopherhall2897 3 месяца назад +2

    I’m very happy with the movement but would love a strap pack option as San Martin do great straps and I would like both so you could mix it up with this summer vibe watch.

    • @ShinyThings
      @ShinyThings  3 месяца назад

      Interesting! At 20mm lugs this watch is a strap monster!

    • @ShinyThings

      Might look a bit odd in isolation, but could be a great match to some kind of brown/ green accents outfit 🤔 just a thought 🙂 Thank you for watching! 🙂👍

    I've had the mint chocolate in my basket for a while but I really want a high beat movement. Totally fine with a pt5000.

  • @Giancarlo-f8z
    @Giancarlo-f8z 3 месяца назад +1

    Sono d'accordo che nh35 sia un movimento decente, ho acquistato 4 San Martin ma, onestamente faccio fatica ad acquistare altri modelli che hanno il medesimo calibro che trovo in orologi ( comunque più che decenti) a 60€

    • @karlgozo

    SM's weakness is their case backs. Boring, and uninspiring. Not even engraved. Why? At $200-300 price category, this is a big oversight. This skin-diver colorful design is a winner. Gorgeous. Even the steel bracelet matches. But the case back is more a priority than the Seiko movement.

  • @michaelberke9709
    @michaelberke9709 3 месяца назад +1

    I love a display case back with watch specific details printed along the outside SS rim. IMHO it elevates the watch. Such sterile casebacks have kept me from even trying SM watches.
