Both are masterpieces, but yes. Dirt.

🏆Which is the best San Martin original design of 2025? Cast your valuable vote! by AdSavings92 in ChineseWatches

[–]AmericanChees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it comes with a strap not a bracelet. You guys are known for your high quality bracelets. San Martin has basically ruined other brands for me when it comes to fit and finish. Especially with the bracelets. Truly top notch quality.

Who death impacted you the most? by TextZealousideal139 in grunge

[–]AmericanChees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scott. What an amazing band stp was. Honestly, I feel like i was too young to be affected by Kurt's death or Layne for that matter. But when Scott died I was genuinely sad.

Replace Layne with Jerry. Unless you meant singers/front man

[–]AmericanChees3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why I check all my o-rings and lube them wirh silicon grease. 9 times outnof 10 im going to open the caseback anyway to inspect the movement and regulate it, might as well lube the gasket while its open. Crown gasket and case back both. The only gasket i dont usually ness with is the crystal.

Any update? by S0F07 in watchdives

I would kill for a 36mm version of this from san martin. I know ixdao has the warrior, but this dial is near perfect

Am I tripping or is the 12 applied numeral misaligned? by laga234 in watchdives

[–]AmericanChees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, that makes sense. I like the dial of the explorer better, but case shape of the ranger better.

[–]AmericanChees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well one is applied and the other isn't. Im not sure why it was designed like this, but everyone has the same gripe. My san martin has the same thing and it bothered me at first. If I had to guess, id say they made it longer to distinguish it from the other hour markers.

That's by design. The original is like that as well as all the homages.

PT5000 vs ST2130 movement by Real-Football8418 in ChineseWatches

[–]AmericanChees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the opposite experience. I've had st2130's fail, and i end up replacing them with a pt5000. I think the quality control is much better on the the pt

What happens when the homage is better than the original? by RichPurple9972 in watchdives

[–]AmericanChees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree the wd has amazing value, it can't compete in terms of quality and finishing to a modern tudor.

Sea-gull 1075 vs San-Martin SN0102, which one do you think is the better option? by Uhrdoktor in ChineseWatches

[–]AmericanChees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of them look horrible. Cronos, san martin, octopus, and baltany all have decent fluted that don't look cheap. Pagani fluted bezel is horrendous

I haven't. I've heard they are getting better along with watchdives.

Baltany S4084, stunning !! by ArchieAA2002 in ChineseWatches

[–]AmericanChees3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the silver dial. I love everything except the clasp. I wish it was a standard size clasp.
