San Martin is known in the world of tribute watches for being one of the best brands, offering premium quality finishes and a very interesting quality-price ratio, with certainly a higher price than many Chinese competitors who generally range between 80 and 150 €, but quality comes at a price and this model costs around 350 €. It is therefore obviously a strong tribute to the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5740, with a flawless construction and great beauty. The on-board movement is a Miyota 9120, automatic and multifunction, which displays the date, day and month in addition to a 24-hour indication, all on 3 sub-dials arranged at 3/6/9 o'clock. The only small downside is precisely this date window at 4:30 which breaks the harmony and symmetry of the dial I find. The Dial is just incredible. Beautiful reflections in natural light, the blue is really superb (dark blue ref) and the horizontal lines as well as the San Martin logo add a very classy and controlled touch. The bracelet is just as successful, extremely comfortable, superb with its brushed and polished finish, it greatly contributes to the beauty of this piece. It is a very classy, chic and very comfortable watch that brings a nice touch of elegance. As you will have understood, I am a big fan of this San Martin and it has its place in my collection next to my much more expensive Swiss watches.
