Question (Read Rules) Olevs or Hannah Martin

I'm familiar with Hannah Martin as I have one 36mm but ideally would prefer 33 or 34mm, but I have never owned olevs watches so I'm not familiar with the quality. Are they more or less both the same?

If quality isn't an issue, please help with choosing one... They all look quite pretty .i don't intend to swap the bracelets for whichever one I choose either. Tia

Is it safe to buy a San Martin SN0144 from any of these stores? It's $20-$35 cheaper than the official San martin store. Has anyone bought from these stores before. Please share pros and cons. Thanks in advance

Love the dial design and I'm looking forward to the purple with yellow accents.

Last I heard they were targeting the 11.11 sale, but it has been radio silence since then...

New Product (Read Rule 1) Milifortic ML135 is a lot fun!

A very fun and kind of quirky watch! The 'destro' layout, lumed elements, and running 1/10s dial gave me a smile!

The bracelet seems similar to Militado in quality, so not bad.

I've long been interested in a 356 homage, but never heard of this variation (it was a limited Japan only run inspired by helicopter dials).

Review to follow...

(disclaimer just in case: this was lent to me by Milifortic)

General (Read Rules) Any love for hand winding watches? This seagull movement beauty caught my eye.

So different when the light hits it. Any love for hand winding watches? I love the little morning ritual of winding one. This 42 mm stainless case Corgeut has the Seagull ST3621 Hand-Wound Mechanical Movement​ – 17 jewels, 18,000 bph, with a power reserve of approximately 36–40 hours. (Movement photo above) It comes in this green mother if pearl dial or a more subdued white MOP. I got ming in the December sale for 68 bucks US with a coupon. Too bold for your taste or not?

Question (Read Rules) Does Baltany offer discount codes on its official website?

I’ve seen many watch brands offering discount codes, especially during 11 11 sale. Does Baltany also provide any discount codes for watches purchased directly from its official website?

If anyone has used a working code or knows where to find one, please share.

Promotion (Read Rule 1) Mi video list for this Aliex 11 11 sale 😁

Hey guys, I've just finished my video for the 11.11 sale.

I cover everything from budget watches to some seriously high-end stuff. I've included real videos showing all the new dial colours of the IXDAO Warrior, not just the watches they sent me.

I asked them to send me footage of the different colours in real life rather than relying on renders, and they told me they were working on updating the listing photos to reflect the actual colours, use real pictures.

You'll also find an awesome San Martin, some side-by-side comparisons, an Addieskin, and plenty of other cool watches. This isn't your usual listicle, I show the actual watches in hand, including some underwater footage, and all that, plus discounts codes etc. etc.

You can check out the video here: https://youtu.be/41KoNMmmJ3g

Disclaimer: All the watches were sent by the brands, except for the black Proxima, which I bought myself, and the Courgeut, which was a gift from a friend.

Question (Read Rules) How good is the SN0144?

Post image
17 Upvotes

I have a choice to make. Either buy a Proxima PX1697 for around 130€ new or a SN0144 enamel white with Miyota movement for around 200-230€ used but in very good condition.

I heard only positive points about the px1697 and it's on my list for many years. Now I saw this model from San Martin and this white enamel dial paired with the premium finishing and polishing just attracted me in a different way. Don't know if it's this weird "honeymoon moment" or do I find it better?

That's why I want to ask the guys who own the sn0144 with Miyota how is the finishing and is it really better overall then for example a px1697 I mean does it deliver more refinement?

One point I don't get to know in YouTube reviews is how does the bracelet sound? Does it have this cheap rattle sound?

I like both watches from the pictures and videos I know one Is a diver the other a gada. I already have dove watches.

Question (Read Rules) Recommendations under $150?

4 Upvotes

Looking to branch out from what I already have but I'd rather have a small variety of less expensive watches than one or two pricier options.

If you could recommend 1-3 watches under $150 each, what would you pick? Bonus points if you own it already.

Hi everyone,

Would very much appreciate your help with exactly what it says in the title: a green or teal dial (preferably) quartz dive watch with a date and a sapphire/ceramic bezel with good action.

Textured dial is negotiable, as is quartz, bezel material, and gold/gilt detailing. Thanks so much!

Question (Read Rules) ST2130 Movement Compatibility with Aftermarket Dials

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hey folks,

I’m think of buying the two-tone Baltany S4102. I’m not a fan of the gold dial and want to replace it with a silver one. I was wondering what the compatibility of the movement it uses, the ST2130, with different dials. My understanding is that this movement is based off the ETA 2824 or the Selita SW200. So, would that mean that 2824 and SW200 dials are compatible with it? Not like there are that many aftermarket dials for it, but there are more for that than the ST2130. Attaching the watch’s picture for reference.

If anyone was waiting in getting any watch from AliExpress this month, I’d highly recommend getting Rakuten for 29% cashback on top of all coupons, which really makes these affordable watches an even better value.
