    Exactly! You put the finger on it, mate! Not a few of them are kept in a safe and never see the daylight because they are so valuable and their owners are too worried about them to actually wear them. As for this watch: it's very good except for the applied logo, you're right about it, it's well meant but looks out of place imo and they should sort out the lume colour! 😂

    Glad to have you in our camp! I like my homages. But I do stuff to them. Here I'd start by lightly brushing the logo so it's more visible.

    Cronos one of the best Aliexpress brands. I have a watch with pure white hands and creamy colored indices and to me it makes the hands 'pop' and makes it super legible. Great work!

    Great video. It’s a nice watch. I bought the Cronos Tudor black bay GMT homage over the San Martin version as the dimensions were the same as the OG Tudor. Lovely watch. As for this one I’ve got the Pagani Design Pepsi GMT with the NH34. Bezel’s a bit light but it’s a stunning watch for under £70

    Cronos used to be San Martin’s main competition a couple years ago, but they seem to have fallen behind, but you’re absolutely right, if you want SM quality at around 75% of the price, you can’t go wrong with a Cronos. Thanks!

    I picked up the Tandorio version for about $80 - Went for the sterile dial/no logo - I figured since it was a homage why not look for the least costly & I have to say it's pretty nice, NH34 movement, aluminum bezel insert, oyster bracelet with the quick adjust built into the clasp (a nice touch)

    I just wish San Martin or cronos put a true GMT movement in some of their watches. The myota 9075. Sure they would be more expensive but then they would be so much better.

      You still don’t get it.Fair has nothing to do with anything.
      Seiko or Rolex are world wide conglomerate which have world wide distribution,service centers,AD, warehouses,middle man,warranty,design centers,testing centers for watch parts etc.
      You don’t have a clue how manny people are involved around huge watch brand.
      Cronos and San Martin doesn’t have a shit and that’s why they can offer sapphire and ceramic on 300$ watch but if you have in your payroll 400 thousand people any chinese watch would cost triple,that’s economy.

    I'm torn between this or the Sugess with darker blue and darker red as well. My deal breaker with me in this is the rehaut, is it thick like the San Martin's sub homage? I don't like that the dial is deep. Would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you
