About this deal

This is San Martin’s Homage to the Seiko Tuna SBBN015. Definitely a lot cheaper than the original! I also like that the San Martin Tuna comes in various different color variations for the dial. The red especially is quite striking! The dial windows, are usually made of anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Now this is an interesting choice for these types of watches, as sapphire is considered a more premium material, and is thus more expensive.

San Martin watches have analog displays, and feature automatic movement. Their cases can be made of bronze, brass, or stainless steel. The bezels also, can be made of bronze, brass or stainless steel. Some bezels will be ceramic as well. For their bands, San Martin watches usually have stainless steel, rubber, or even leather bands. And lastly, the water resistance of their watches are going to be rated for a depth of up to 200 meters or more, usually.When compared to other diving watches in their class, San Martin watches inhabit the middle ground. Cheaper diving watches can be found, however, they will not be of the same quality, and will not have sapphire glass windows, if that is important to you. If you are satisfied with our products and services, please don’t forget to give us a 5 star rating. The attention to the details and quality in the San Martin lines is comparable to much higher priced models. The San Martin 62MAS is one if their most popular products. If you didn’t already know, it is a homage to the Seiko 62MAS.

Kindly Note: Due to weather, customs or holidays, etc., delivery time may be slightly longer, please be patient. Obviously an advantage of the timegrapher is unambiguous and rapid positional measurements. It is quite another thing to judge what to do about them. i do not fancy myself a watchmaker and all i really know about positional errors is that, while beat error correction may help some of them (or not) practically any other steps delve into the obscure dark arts of balance wheel poising, staff/bearing correction, etc. This review will be focusing on San Martin watches. San Martin is a brand that many may not be familiar with. They are a Chinese watch brand. Their watches are comparable to brands such as Seiko, or Invicta. Beat error correction is something that i leave to others. Hah! What am i saying? Even minor speed regulation i outsource. Mind you, i have colleagues that are watch nerds and can be bribed with suitable malt beverages. I stated earlier that we’re going to focus on their dive watches. And yes, a lot of their watches are made to look like more expensive brands. This is deliberate, so they can serve as an affordable alternative to more expensive watches. And that is not a bad way to market a product.

Seeing as how many of their watches mimic well known luxury watches, they are going to have an appealing style to them. So what about the price? Pricing Note: The links near the sides of the clasp are not removable. If you need to adjust the size, please remove the middle links in the bracelet I’ve collected watches for many years. I’ve owned a Rolex Submariner, Breitling Navitimer, Zodiac Sea Wolf, etc. This watch looks just as good as any of them. I just love it. San Martin hit a home run with this watch. Sometimes they mix and match these materials. For example, some watches may have a combination of a bronze case with a stainless steel bezel or vice versa. The use of bronze and brass cases is different, because you don’t see that very often in these kinds of watches.

I’ve always like the look of this vintage style dial, but the smaller size was just a bit too small for my taste. This San Martin SN020-G is a dream come true. 39mm case that is slim and contoured beautifully. Nice finish! The vintage lume applied to the dial give just enough vintage vibe, but not too much. The crystal looks better in hand than the pics can show. Over all a nice clean look that stands out but yet flies under the radar. The SM bracelet, although nice, does not hold up to the quality of the oyster bracelet on my Rolex Datejust 41 (clearly, there is a huge price difference). Rolex makes, in my opinion, the finest bracelets in the business. My Rolex bracelet is silky smooth, incredibly well made and extraordinarily comfortable. I can not say that about any other bracelet I've ever owned. San Martin watches will have that all too familiar look that you know and love in diving watches. There will be variations on this design, but you pretty much know what too expect: coin edge unidirectional rotating bezels, luminous hands and markers, and a date window. This will be the basic outline for most of the San Martin diving watches. Clasp: Clasp: New Folding Clasp With Safety, With 3D Hexagonal Logo,Small Size Clasp, More Suitable For WatchesYour positional variance is remarkable; do you have any idea of its beat error and whether it is varying by position? That is: have you put it on a timegrapher? You might need to have beat adjusted . . . which is a considerably more subtle job than just a speed regulation. Fortunately i have a fellow hobbyist that does this for the price of a few beers . . .
