- In this video I review the new San Martin SN0075. This watch houses the Miyota 9120, a calendar automatic, a very rare movement for AliExpress watches and they have used it in a popular and well known watch design. I also show a new SN034 watch which turned up during filming in the new San Martin packaging.

I Like Watches
can't say that I too have ever been a fan of the nautilus/aquanaut/royal oak design. That said, a movement like this for the money, could tempt me to dabble with the design
Sadly much large for my 6” wrist but that is INSANE quality for the price. Wow! just incredible. the new leather case is brilliant too.
The real respect for the audience and the content is definitely noticed! That countdown to the watch feature is very thoughtful and pure fan service. Much appreciated!
My pleasure…it motivates me to stick to the important points and not just waffle for the sake of it…glad it’s appreciated
Love the new look and sound! Great job, Gary
I always thought your videos sounded just fine. But hearing the new sound quality, Wow! What an improvement! Love the new studio set up as well!
Nice mic Gary, works well. Glad to see the light box got brighter too, thanks!
Looks really great man fantastic job upgrading 👏👏👏
The bracelet on the miyota/homage looks amazing. Mic 🎤 sounds good and I like the new background!
Fantastic improvements all round gary👍🏼 I just love all San Martin full stainless steel watches. They make me like designs that before I wasn’t keen on. Just for the level of fit and finishing. Great movements and all this for a price the working man can reasonably afford! Long may it continue!!👏🏻
Just got my SN0054 GMT today with the same leather case and I am absolutely in love with the watch and the case, can't wait to see what San Martin come up with next!
Studio upgrades 👍 👍 and interesting watches. Good viewing on a Saturday morning, thanks Gary.
Always a pleasure…thanks for watching!
Interesting insight about the mic, sounds great too!
I've been waiting for this review. Saw the watch on their site a few weeks ago but couldn't find any reviews yet. Looks stunning and I'm so tempted even though I only bought my latest watch at Christmas. This addiction is getting worse 😂
Massive audio improvement. Well done. Cheers.
Thanks!
Love the mic Gaz!!
Nice perspective in present set up!
I’m happy to see them improving. Hopefully they can come up with a couple of incredible original designs and move out of the homage market.
I really like the look of this watch. Think I might pick one up during the sale. Thanks for the review.
Did you get one of the SN-0075? How was it?
Check the new setup. Fantastic. Well done
Hi, sound is very good.
Colours of studio very good.
I'm liking all of your super updates thank you.
Glad you like them!
New mic sounds great!!
New set up looks very nice👍
Thanks!
Love the new studio!
Nice to see San Martin using better movements. I wonder if those complications would be better suited on a dressier watch, more like the Longines Master collection. I also really like their new "travel" case; much more functional. I always thought the tub style looked like a garbage bin.
Loving the studio upgrades, very pro-looking now 😗👌
Studio looks awesome 👌🏻
Thanks Andy
The new microphone sounds great!
like the new studio look, very chic.
San Martin definitely makes good valueable Watches for the Price. Nice hommage again from this good chinese brand. Thanks for your videos Always interesting !
Thanks for watching!
Woah, sounds ace ! Nice investment
The improvements are on point. The microphone arm is better like this. I like the dark paint work
Thanks…
I'm more a beige man myself, TBH.
Hi Gary, nice improvement of your studio. Very interesting dial/movement but, agree, not that case! Also, the white date wheel does looks out of place with the dark dial color. Regards
Amazing watch
they get better and better
Nice watch ! You need to get one of those fuzzy Dagestan hats to set the scene in your intro , everything looks right except that your missing a hat . Cheers 👍 great review 👌
Sorry, but with the new mike and decor, your vids are great for inducing sleep last thing at night (a compliment I suppose !) - another great vid thanks 👍
Hahaha ASMR with watches seems like the new trend. Nice review and quite a nice model, as you say, variety is important. Hope it sells well.
The mic sounds great and the back ground looks good too 👍. I will never understand why the watch San Martin are homaging is so popular!
I love the SanMartin crisp engineering on the finishing.
Coming from a mechanical and metal background, I fully understand the quality.
It’s not sharp, quality finishes
Agreed!
Patek from Guangzhou :D Finishing is nice but my honset opinion is that all this Chinesse brands except maybe Seagul and Shaghai are worthless just a piece of metal.
@@askeladd9591 not according to everyone that buys San Martin, and they have reasonably decent resale values, so your honest opinion doesn't reflect reality.
I like the watch and impressed with the movement, but they are now definitely in microbrand price territory. I wouldn't mind buying this watch, but will wait to see if there are discounts in the upcoming sale. Great video and marco shots Gary.
Well we will get use to new sound quality of our guru. Regards from Ireland
I love that these triple calendar movements are starting to trickle out. Maen just announced a really cool new watch with the Miyota 9122!
I like it, I just purchased a Waldhoff Seawolf that looks similar.
Lovely watch
The new mic isc sounding good. That's a very nice watch and it's the closest that most of us are going to get to owning a PP.
Seriously hope they get the Miyota GMT movement in soon. Giving people the option of both styles of GMT in the same watch would be pretty unique, & awesome.
Impatiently waiting for San Martin to use the Miyota true GMT movement in their watches!!
Great video Garry!! Like the new mic, sounds great! That is a stunning watch I must say!!! Will this be one you will sell?
Probably yes
@@ilikewatches will it be on ebay do you think, or a private sale?
Most of TH-cam watch guys avoid yo talk about the “Chinese” made watch. I am so glad you do it. I do have an extensive watch collection ( some over $2000) and the best lume is from a Chinese watch, the most precise is a NH35 regulated from Chinese watch … just for few $$$$ ! I am not a pro-China guy buy there is something to talk about here……
Hi Gary, congratulations on your upgraded studio job well done. Chris is right as always the mic’s in the right place now.
Kills me that he was right…
One more tick ☑️ in the box for Chris yet again 😂
Nice update to the studio Gary, and that mic sounds great 👍🏻👌🏻
As for the watch, good looking watch and looks very well made - certainly looks substantial on wrist but why is the lume always a completely different colour on the hands to the indices! If they're the same strength/longevity, why are they different colours? Great review as always 👍🏻
That's odd, they look the same colour to me....could it be they just appear different on your phone or monitor?
@@ilikewatches thanks for reading my comment and replying Gary. I do think that San Martin are excellent quality watches - after all, it's your fault I bought far too many of them! 😂
Lume colour difference is around the 04:54 mark. I do find it stands out more on the darker dials, I had a green sn017 and that was hard to tell unless you looked for it but the Sn019 I had was very obvious and once you see it, you can see past it (for me anyways)
I recently got into the Tissot PRX family and I cannot stop wearing them! Favourite is the panda chrono. Keep doing what you're doing mate, channel is going from strength to strength! 😎👍🏻
9:33 the old packaging always reminded me of a Patterson developing tank - I'd have to resist the urge to invert it twice each minute & give it a tap on the bench to dislodge the bubbles...
I would happily argue that my San Martin BB58 homage has case finishing on par with my Tudor BB GMT. Transitions can only get so sharp, and San Martin has pretty much gotten there. They also hand polish, which Tudor doesn't do.
I actually like the SN0075, the colorway, dial texture, the movement and look and definitely a fan of the new packaging - hated the big plastic tub my San Martin came in.
Having worked in radio at the start of my career the presence of a large microphone gives a focal point to the presenter. The sound has enhanced the tone of your voice Garry. Less accent more authority....
The watch case shape is a bit yuck but the dial is interesting. Kudos for San Martin for trying new things. Great review as always.
So what your saying is I have a face for radio….😂
Great review! Take a load off though and sit back a bit 😉. If you want less mic arm in the shot, try out the Elgato low profile arm.
I like the nautilus look, but with 3 hands. After I saw the thumbnail, I decided to wear the Phylida hommage.
Wow would love to see this movement in a homage from a vintage patek perpetual calendar
Your new set up is on point Gary. Not a fan of this watch shape, great quality though.
Very cool
Does the month register change at the end of the month on the San Martin "Nautiloak", or do you need to press the button to advance it?
Yeah man mic is sounding wayyy better
Not a big fan of the first watch but was intrigued by the second one. Is it bronze?Would like to see the review on that! Still getting used to the new sound. I like the LED's though!
Love the new colour scheme, major improvement. Mic sound is brilliant. Is it a USB microphone? Be interested to know how you are capturing the sound.
Shure MV7 with the Shure micro usb to lightning adapter cable and the iPhone Shure MOTIV app…I am recording the footage on my iPhone 12 and recording the sound on my old iPhone…matching the sound to the footage is easy in the lumafusion app….
@@ilikewatches thanks mate. I went to a usb into my laptop for voiceovers and it was night and day difference but I’m wanting something better for my camera input so I will look into this one.
Thanks.
Definite step up in the audio quality, makes the difference 👍
Very nice
I like the new paint. I can appreciate this watch without liking it, right? It's a nice example of what it is.
100% you can
I guess this is the first time you've worn a jacket in your videos! Looks good.
thanks, its because I dont need to have the mic clipped onto me
I like both but the first one better
That 9120 is lovely... like I would spend my own money nice...
Like the improvements, just wondered whether you tried having the microphone placed above your head and how that would pick up your voice. If it worked it would hide the microphone from view and reintroduce the baseball bat swing.
I think we need to retire the swing....RSI
That mic makes you look like a chat show host in a radio studio🤪
"TONIGHT ON THE SATURDAY NIGHT GARY SHOW...ANOTHER SAN MARTIN!"
I really, really like this watch. This isn't really my style. I like sport/tool watches but this is very tempting. The new travel style case the watch comes in is a Home Run. I really like it and the green color. I see you can't buy it separately for some reason, only blue and black. They need to also sell it in green.
9100 series movements have featured in Parnis, Ossine and Berny and Lobinni watches among others. I cannot believe this is the first time you encounter them, Gary. I think you might be mistaken.
I've had a Melbourne Watch Company "Portsea" for about a year now with the 9122 movement (day and month subdials, normal date window). Keeps within COSC despite not being classed as such. To be honest, the 24 hour subdial seems unnecessary and crowds the dial on this SM.
I don't care for the watch this is based on so this one is a no from me. San Martin are making great watches for the money, tho.
Nice changes to the look and sound of the video. You're doing great work, Gary!
Its a nice design, i wish they made a VC Overseas homage with this. With a salmon dial. I and like some other 5 people would probably buy it😂
What about water resistance? Is it realy 100m?
Hahaha so no more wielding the virtual baseball bat? 😄 I have to say, I like the updated setup. Over time it now has developed to being quite special!
Couldn't agree more about the 'double crown guards'. On the watch alluded to they serve a purpose as there's a hinge hidden in the left one. Here, they are just unnecessary bulk. Aside from that, I'm not excited by the combination of the circular crystal and the octagonal bezel. But the new packaging is a massive upgrade. I wonder how they can include it without increasing the price. I found the old packaging quite ugly.
Thanks Alex
Unlike yourself I love the Nautilus. The case is so distinctive I don't like it being used on other watches. Butterfly clasps without half links is far too hit and miss for me. All that to one side the SM looks great quality, but not one for me. The new packaging is by far their best
I like the looks of the '75 but I hate integrated bracelets ! The voice does sound better mate. Have you ever thought of a timegrapher for your new look studio ?
Thanks…
I'm a big Nautilus fan so me likey, but that butterfly clasp stops me dead, it's too much to pay for a watch that fits some of the time...if you're lucky.
I prefer Mathey-Tissot Evasion watch.
I think you should try your bat-swinging intro with the new setup. It might be amusing.
I can afford to buy another mic....
Like the movement do not like the case size and that type ofbracelet. I guess they wanted to homage some certain watch. Should take just classical case like that field watch and put some nice ruby red dial or emerald green dial with brass case and slim bund strap. I am glad they expanded their movements even though they source top quality movements no matter HKPT or Seiko or Hangzhou.
what is your wrist size please?
Amazing
I Like Watches…After Dark!
I still find the microphone too quiet although the sound quality is very good 👍
Imagine if this movement was in an original design or less major brand atleast
I felt like I was being groomed at the end of the vid 😳😂
You were…did it work…I’ll met you behind the bike shed later if it did!
@@ilikewatches yeah, too late, I already completed
300 bucks for a finely finished watch and a miyota movement is not bad of a deal imo
Can you post a link to your "I Like Microphones" channel when you have a sec?
lol….
Someone call me when they make a 60s inspired GMT using the 9075 with 200M WR.
👍👍
Gaz, when are you gonna review the *San Martin Milsubmariner Dive Watch SN006* please? thanks snack.
Pretty sure I already reviewed it
@@ilikewatches You sure? It's the one very like the Steinhart Ocean One Vintage Military with better female bracelet links.
@@ilikewatches Gaz, just sent you an email with the aliexpress link to this limited edition San Martin - cheers snack.
@@snacklofter is it the milsub with vintage patina you are referring to?
@@shanephillips8735 Yes! It's the 40mm size with drilled lugs! I want one!!!!
Do you know any Barry White songs?
i'll learn one.....just for you!
I would buy a 41/42mm with no hesitation
43 is too big though
My original comment didn't post for some reason....in short turn the 24 into a 31 date wheel, ditch the current date to tidy the dial....🏴⌚🏴⌚
👍
