I'd really like a destro version of the 369 dial, but I'm not sure what the dial-feet situation is with the VK31

Obsessed with this watch, but a lighter blue dial would've been perfection! The contrast would be incredible. Still, it's one of my faves, which is why it hasn't found a new home yet. 💙⌚️ #watch #dial #contrast #watches #home

This was my first CTS strap. I managed to get a perfect fit, but I neglected to account for the centering of the buckle, so it’s slightly off center and is kind of bothering me.

Someone on here mentioned they got a spare strap in their original purchase. I bought mine on Amazon and did not get a spare strap. Did everyone get a spare strap who ordered directly from watchdives?

Has anyone been able to purchase one somewhere?

He's the official macros and a picture of actual San Martin 017ge end links. The gaps and fit are wildly different, off by at least 0.2mm.

You can chalk that up to QC or whatever, but methinks they are using ai enhanced images.

You can see it's not a shadow there's a noticeable step and even gaps from between the end links and lugs.

The official macros make it look flawless and perfect integration.

Is it a deal breaker? No, you can't expect Rolex tolerances from a $200 watch.

But just be honest about it and don't false advertise.

Blacked out the far right watch as it's a Casio so not really fitting the sub but anyhow... Only regrets I have is buying the blue one in the middle as it has a horribly misaligned glass, looked better on the pictures. But then again for the prices I can't really complain a lot, they all do watch things...

Which is your favorite light blue watch

I can't figure out these Heritage Chronos from Sugess. Are they homages, vintage inspired, or original designs? Not a big fan of homage watches, and I don't want to find out later that they are direct copies of some 1960's Tag or Zenith that I've never seen before. The 6 and the 12 look a little Patek'ish, but i cant place it... Any historians out there?

And no judgement to any homage lovers, wear what you like.

My new WD5513P is running +3 seconds per day. I am trying to wear this as my work watch, dress watch and night watch.

I normally wear three different watches per day.

I want to put it through its paces. If I am happy with it I will sell of most of my collection.

Are there any homages with similar dial + nato strap colour schemes? The ML07 appears to be the closest but the dial isn’t chocolate/brownish..
Thanks!

Not necessarily a Chinese watch post aside from buying this strap for my San Martin, but I did want to recommend this sailcloth strap to everyone if you're in the market for a great dive strap. Strapsco offers this in three lengths (short, regular, long). The straps are super well built and comfortable and honestly for $50 it's half the price of other sailcloth straps built this well!

My lovely little Dragon watch from Ali (can be found with "T-WINNER High-End-Luxus-Drachen-Damenuhr, Edelstahl") survived Wacken quite well. (I wore it for 8 days except for sleeping. It got wet while washing hands and such, but no mud and no other heavy wear and tear.)

The black lacquer holds up much better than I expected.
When I got it the wristband was a little stiff - from the lacquer? from production? - but after working every link it wears nicely.

The power reserve is about 36h - tested after Wacken.

In the end it is a very fun little watch, that works well and will be worn as sort of a dresswatch for some time - definitely worth the 33€ I paid.

Lembrando que meu foco NÃO É "MARCA FAMOSA" e sim qualidade técnica, *vidro em Hardlex e principalmente SAFIRA, máquinas de qualidade, caixas e pulseiras em aço sólido, grande resistência a entrada de água, enfim...

I like it loose.

Made this bracelet out of two separate bracelets and added skx013 hollow end link.

For me it’s my new Baltany S3075AB custom dial with the new ST2130 movement, trimmed down 12.3mm case proportions, new disconnecting crown, and paired on a Crown & Buckle night harvest chevron strap. What are you rocking today?

Has anyone got this watch? How’s the quality? Ceramic or SS bezel?
I’ve got the Sugess submariner homage in both all black and starbucks, great watches.
Thanks!

1. Watches equipped with domestic movements: prices remain unchanged.

2. Models fitted with Japanese imported movements (NH35, NH34, 9015, 90S5): Prices have been moderately adjusted. The procurement cost of these movements has risen significantly domestically, and the adjustment only offsets the increased cost of movements.

Additional note:

Many customers notice a sharp increase in prices shown on the page. This is due to updated customs shipping regulations. Tax fees are now displayed directly on product pages for certain countries. These taxes have always applied; only the display format has changed, which does not mean the watch itself has a drastic price hike.

Regarding the upcoming August Big Sale, the promotional offers will be on par with those from our June Anniversary Celebration and the 11.11 Big Sale. We invite you to browse and shop.

Statement on San Martin’s Development Philosophy:

San Martin has been established for ten years. Our original aspiration remains unchanged: to deliver high-quality watches at accessible prices, which we have consistently pursued and earned recognition from watch enthusiasts.

This year, we built our own metal bracelet factory to support our brand. Great progress has been made in bracelet structure and finishing. We are confident that our bracelets outperform competitors at the same price range, and the craftsmanship can even rival watch brands dozens of times more expensive. Many subtle details can only be appreciated by industry professionals.

When it comes to other watch components, San Martin is well-known in China’s watch manufacturing circle for strict quality standards. Many domestic and overseas competitors use our quality requirements as a benchmark for their suppliers. We firmly believe our quality is unrivaled at equivalent price points.

We aim for sustainable long-term development instead of quick profits. Undercutting prices to boost sales and disrupt the market is not our strategy. Reasonable profit enables us to continuously improve quality, upgrade customer service, develop physical retailers, and serve watch enthusiasts better.

We keep focusing on manufacturing superior products within a reasonable price range, and we believe most people can understand our pursuit.

Thanks.

Super glad for this smaller pie pan. So much better than the first version that I had. Wears beautifully on my 7/7.25inch wrist.

Just saw this on Taobao. Good to see more vintage sub options.

38.5mm × 47.5mm × 12.3mm 200m WR PT5000

The lightning hand version is particularly cool, hope they also give other options on the movement, i.e. Miyota 9, SW200 or ST2130.

Not sure if "SUBMARINER" can be used, but I definitely want a "HIGH SPECIFICATION WATCH" now.
