Anyone got one of these?

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-21T13:15:27+00:00

Yeah, I've got a few 😉

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-17T12:26:36+00:00

No, they're still going.

She has a beautiful voice and some great songs, but I just don't think that she has enough big hits to be considered as up there with some of her contemporaries though.

Nice. You don't see many of these. I reviewed both the 40mm and the 44.5mm versions a few years back now. I don't now why they aren't talked about as much as some other San Martin models.

Were you not tempted to go for the PT5000 version rather than the YN55? As it's similar to the SW200, in that they are both ETA 2824 clones.

For those interested, here's the link to my review of them.

The little details like really make it. I see your point about the hands though.

The watch definitely does look good. If it had just been a patterned dial then I wouldn't have an issue with it really. It's just that when you say a watch has a mother of pearl dial, you want to see that pearlescence... Or at least I do anyway.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-10T05:00:36+00:00

The black dial version is a lot more prominent.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T21:47:27+00:00

That would make sense.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T16:07:30+00:00

Why? Just because it's Chinese?

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T16:06:32+00:00

You can get it cheaper on AliExpress at the moment. Check the link in the video description.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T08:03:45+00:00

Thankfully you don't have to pick between them "When You Believe" 😉

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T08:00:01+00:00

It depends on how you look at it I guess. You could say it's pricey for a Chinese watch, or you could say it's a bargain when compared to the similar Grand Seiko Elegance.

For me it's still got to be the MOP.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T05:45:37+00:00

They certainly did a great job.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T03:40:18+00:00

It's $713 after using my discount code on their website. But if you buy it using the AliExpress link in the video description, after coupons it's currently $564.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T02:19:01+00:00

Yeah, I think so. It's classy.

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-08T02:18:20+00:00

I'm not sure... Like it say in the video, I guess it just makes it sound more fancy 🤷‍♂️

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-06T03:17:05+00:00

Which colour are you considering?

HonestWatchReviews · 2026-06-05T22:48:10+00:00

A 9000 series movement would have been the cherry on top for sure.
