San Martin SN0130 ➡ s.click.aliexp...
Review sample provided by the San Martin Official Store on AliExpress. They made no monetary payment.
In this San Martin SN0130 unboxing video, I take a first look at this new mother-of-pearl GMT, sometimes known as the San Martin SN0130-G MOP. This is the black version, though it also ships in white too. It's a very impressive 42mm timepiece at a glance. Full specs viewable on AliExpress.

Ordered the SN0116 recently from the official store, no QC or other issues. Fantastic watch.

3:30 I'm 90% sure Erebus is manufactured at the San Martin factory. The clasps are the same (aside from branding) and if you watch Jody's Origin factory vlog and San Martin's factory tour from a couple years ago they look very similar and the same worker is in both videos.

FINALLY someone else notices the similarities between the bracelets. I've seen neither of the vids you mention but I own a San Martin and recognized the similar bracelet on the Erebus

I think you’re conflating a few things here. I think it’s more likely a case of Jody’s company using some of the same suppliers. Given how popular that clasp is, if I were building a brand and interested in having that feature be a part of my products, I would hunt down that supplier to see if that is exclusive or not.

@@friskjidjidoglu7415 I just went back and looked at the Erebus Vlog again. In the comments someone mentions it is the San Martin factory, and Jody hearted the comment. So that's as close to a confirmation as we'll probably get.

@friskjidjidoglu7415 3 ай бұрын
An interesting detail I’ve noticed about SM is that they appear to reserve the tool less adjustment clasp for their non-copy watches. It reminds me of Rolex having levels to their clasps. It’s a clever bit of catalog building from them. Like “rewarding” customers for supporting the San Martin *brand*, not just the San Martin *copies*. I think they should keep it that way. However, I do hope that they keep making it easy for a customer to switch from the handy but honestly bulky toolless adjustment clasp to the regular ones.

Idk about that, I own a San Martin pelagos copy and it has the tool-less adjustable clasp

The SN0129 is ridiculously good. It's actually mind-blowing how good for the money this watch is. It took almost a month to ship, but their customer service was exceptional. Just try them, and you'll believe..

@linzitazim Ай бұрын
@In_The_Loupe it's a 'loose' homage. Like the sn0129 the indices, hands, dial and bravet are different The cronos gs is more of a clomage.

@GEMSofGOD_com 3 ай бұрын
Their official shop is a total zero. They wanted to give me a sample of their most expensive model for $60, including shipping, and they couldn't provide ANY adequate response to anything. After that, I wouldn't take their watch for $40, no matter how good the quality seems. Ain't an original-first brand anyway. Can't see their legacy booming.

Speaking from my own experience the SN0129 from them had the hour and gmt hand hand misaligned to the hour markers by between 2 to 5 minutes for every marker. They said it was fine

Nice to see them making man-sized watches again! Always liked this design but too small for my wrist, might have to get one of these tho 😃
@friskjidjidoglu7415 3 ай бұрын
“Man-sized watches”. Your preference is heavily a culture thing. It’s one thing to prefer larger watches, but it’s a different thing to insist that larger watches are inherently masculine

SM Official CS nearly worthless. Cursory, largely dismissive. Would make sense that perhaps they'd be more attentive to reviewers, but mostly shit to the average customer seemingly.
