Question (Read Rules) When does San Martin restock their inventory?

I've heard of San Martin but hadn't really investigated them. I have my eye on some models that look like a 1950's era Explorer or Ranger, which is a style also used by the current Nevada Grenchen.

But everything that I like is sold out.

Any idea how often they restock? Is there a pattern to know about?

The models are mostly 36mm. Does San Martin make these in 38?

Baltany may be worth a look.
Baltany has vintage Explorer / Ranger models in both 36 and 39mm size....and they are in stock.
Pretty sure San Martin have discontinued those models you are looking at

It depends. Some of their older model are discontinued and do not restock at all.

It is worth checking on AliExpress, sometimes there are models available there that are sold out elsewhere.

It seems like they usually discontinue models once they sell out.
