    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.

    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..

    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.

      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.

    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.

      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.

      “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

      Have you tried San Martin? Additionally, as mentioned in the video, i'd love to know if particular watches like this model are clones of other watches or not. There are thousands of models released each year and it's impossible for an individual to keep up with them and keep track of whether a particular design is original

    if 1 of your viewers is having issues with San martin you should not promote them. They are a half dozen or more people with QC issue just in this thread and the last thread alone. But yet you take another free watch and promote them. Very sad to see Ben you crossing the sell out line tread carefully

      From what I have seen online, there are issues, but it’s not everyone. I have 3 San Martins haven’t had any issues so far and they’re great. Ben doesn’t appear to really take any watches for “free”. I mean, he is selling most of these. I can’t really have a channel with this level of production quality and rely only on the AdCents
