This is a sweetie. Love almost everything about is. I'd like to see it in a more traditional color theme. One thing I like and no one has really mentioned in detail is the length of the hands. They're almost perfect - like Hamilton level of perfect. The hour hand goes all the way to the minute track, and the minute hand"s tip just clips the hour indices. Even the paddle on the second hand just touches the hour indices. Just amazing (yeah, I'm kind of a hand freak).

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Am glad you like it mare and I can completely understand why, it’s a real beauty and I’m sure in time they will release less colourful options 👍👍

@drebarthelotte5712 Месяц назад

I thinking that it would would help the date wheel legibility if the printing of the numbers would been better orange. Maybe even the frame aswell (?). The rest of it looks perfect. Thank Simon. Proxima and San Martin dueling for summer sound interesting 🤔 for a review. Cheers mate

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

I don’t mind it mate as unlike the time, how often do you need to check the date + it makes the dial look much cleaner and not an eyesore. Good suggestion on the orange though, that would looks sweet 👍👍

@BAF605 Месяц назад

Great summer look at a very good price. I hope they keep coming with more original designs.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

I agree mate and I’m pretty sure that is what they intend to do 👍👍

@RIOLOGY Месяц назад

Gorgeous watch, I just got nothing to match with it in my wardrobe. However, San Martins always deliver in quality, I just finished my review of their SN0140W Spirit Zulu Time and I just cant get it off my wrist to start experiencing the next watch up for review, guess you have experienced the same plenty of times already xD Great reviews as always, thank you and have a wonderful weekend!

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Nice one mate, I’ll be sure to check it out later. Thanks for watching 👍👍

@Jelloc Месяц назад

I guessed Proxima/Phoibos during your intro...and I was surprised to know I was wrong! 😂

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Phoibos and Proxima are both outstanding and definitely up there on a level with San Martin. This watch however, is a BANGER 👍👍

Simon Try putting the 'spare' keeper on the strap for a slightly better fit

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Will give that a try mate - thanks for the suggestion 👍👍

@caktaylor Месяц назад

This is what Proxima should have done with their PX1703, leverage a well-received model to create a range of vibrantly colored dive watches. I wrote as much in the comments for your PX1703 review. But they didn't, so a missed opportunity for Proxima and another hit for San Martin.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

You did say that at the time and I thought and still think you’re right. SM have produced a real stunner with this watch 👍👍

@brianmsahin Месяц назад

Fantastic looking watch Simon. It's holiday time here in Turkey for the next 3 or 4 months so been missing some of your videos. This is a great watch for on the beach . Excellent review as always !

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

No problem man. Am jealous your in Turkey and I’m stuck here in England, the place is falling apart 😢 Thanks for watching mate 👍👍

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

@lawrence-ec5dm Месяц назад

The only thing that I don't like is the counter balance on the second hand is a bit too long.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Fair enough mate. It doesn’t bother me at all but I take your point 👍👍

@turk914 Месяц назад

Bought this in the mint chocolate chip cookie color and absolutely love it. Only complaint is that I have a fairly average size wrist (around 7.5", I think) and the strap end barely clears the hoops. So, the strap is a bit shorter than I'd prefer.

@julianb1474 Месяц назад

same here on the wrist size and strap comment

@brianmsahin Месяц назад

It's the one thing I've heard about the SM watches in general. I'd probably have no chance with an 8.1" wrist !

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Sorry to hear that mate. It’s something I can’t say I’ve had a problem with but will definitely consider that more in future. Thanks for your feedback 👍👍

@turk914 Месяц назад

Certainly not a deal breaker for me. It fits, just not much extra strap, unlike other watches I have. Maybe it's an Asian thing. Seikos I own fit fine. But I ordered one straight from Japan, and the strap was short. Anyway, was going to use this San Martin as my snorkel watch for my upcoming vacation. But not sure I have the heart to take it in the water, it's so nice.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

@turk914 good to know and I also get what you mean, it’s so nice it seems a shame to do activities with it where you know it will get bashed 👍👍

@phillipdennis6690 7 дней назад

Just received this watch in blue, ordered in the last sale £135, great holiday watch.

@johnswatchjoint Месяц назад

Hi buddy. Very nice watch overall but the date wheel is just lost and the rehaut chapter/ ring is just off colour-wise. Good effort by SM though.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

All of these things are extremely subjective and I personally like both of those things, but I can also see why some, including yourself wouldn’t. Thanks for stopping by and I hope everything is looking up 👍👍

@mattys1467 23 дня назад

It will be interesting to see just how San Martin develops. Their quality is undeniable

@WatchtheTime 23 дня назад

Definitely mate. I have a feeling they are going to keep going from strength to strength 👍👍

@AlexanderB. Месяц назад

I know most people do like the colour matched date wheel but I'm not a huge fan of it. It just disappeares too much. There needs to be something to better balance out the dial, either a small truncated index next to it or a metal date frame.

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

No problem mate. Is good to have a difference of opinion and as ever, you’re very articulate in the way you do it - thank you 👍👍

@PocketUau Месяц назад

What about a color matched thin yellow frame around the date?

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

Could work mate 👍👍

@the.Aruarian 26 дней назад

I think that if the text was white, it’d be less of an issue.

Great summer colours. Hopefully see many more original designs from SM. Would be great to see this up against the Proxima. Thanks for the upload. Cheers 🍻

I pretty much impulse bought the newest SN0116G-B from the Fruits series.😂 Three hander without a different case than this one, really looking forward to having it on wrist. Ordered the 🍊 version, but the 🥑 looks fantastic too. I’ve had a skin diver itch for a while now, thanks to those Zodiac 53s, so hoping this’ll scratch it.

Doesn’t anybody notice it? I didn’t buy this one (it is a beauty), because after looking carefully at the photos- there is a gap, a noticeable gap- between each indices and the chapter ring🤷🏼‍♂️. I can’t unsee it…

@che7wins614 Месяц назад

The £145, so does that mean UK customs on top? If coins used dropped it below £145, would it escape customs, or do they use original price on declaration?

@WatchtheTime Месяц назад

I’ve only had to pay import at the point of checking out on AliExpress if the item is less than roughly £135, otherwise it’s always been ok. I hope that helps mate 👍👍
