Bracelet binding between links can be solved sometimes by washing the watch with a liquid hand soap and wiggling it a bit before rinsing. Helped me once. Very nice release from SM.
I've got the San Martin on order and really looking forward to receiving it. The only thing I would say is that I think a lot people would be happy to pay a bit extra for a hi beat option just to get that nice smooth second hand sweep.
Great review 👍🏻 I just received mine today and really love the blue dial and the case design of this V2. I have the V1 in white dial so I can compare. They could have done better with the bracelet, maybe a wider H style bracelet, but maybe they want us to benefit from the quick adjust clasp (which I love) so it is what it is. My only gripe with this V2 is that the CROWN IS NOT FULLY SCREWING INTO THE CROWN TUBE, about an MM or so. This is not the case with my 3 other San Martin watches. I thought I may have a lemon on my hands, but watching your video, as well another video with the green dial V2, both also have the same issue with some gap between the case and the crown. I can look past this minor issue, but I hope SM and WD fix this in V3. Because I'm definitely going to get another dial color 😉
It is an odd crown design with such a large section of the crown tube being visible. Looking at the back of the case, I do see the slight gap you are referring to. Definitely something to watch out for in terms of water resistance.
Damn.... an Aqua homage... Wow. In the video I can't tell for sure...but but is San Martin/Watch Dives actually using clear anti-reflective coating there? It's supposed to have a color match date wheel.... Weird. No black model? I'm glad they didn't do the polish centrelinks on the bracelet...
@@realestwatchreviews a beautiful logo can either be a text or just a simple logo. It just needs to be simple and elegant. Their current logo just throws off the entire dial. SM copies watch designs. Wondering if they could come up with one original design as simple as a proper logo.
