San Martin Submariner 116610LV Homage Review

San Martin Submariner 116610LV Homage

Actually I do not want to introduce San Martin watches on my blog, they are too good for homage watches, I am not sure how many people are willing to choose a San Martin because its price is a little higher than other homage watches made in China, after I review Pagani Design watches, I more believe that this is the homage most people want to buy from China, with Japanese movement and moderate finish, the most important is the price is more acceptable. However, San Martin is more suitable for those watch fans who are looking for high-end homage watches, I reviewed San Martin before, they customized watches and the finish is really good, they focus on case finish and dial details, a lot of watch fans in Reddit have given San Martin a very high evaluation. Today, I will show you another watch from San Martin, it is a homage watch of the green Submariner 116610LV, Submariner should be the mostly talked watch in the homage field, almost every homage brand has made this watch, and it is the most usual diver’s homage watch, Submariner is also very popular in replica watch industry, in future, I would like to make a summary list of the best Submariner homage watches, today, let me see how is the quality of this green Sub.

San Martin Submariner 116610LV Bezel

This is the Submariner 116610LV homage that looks closest to the real Rolex, its case shape, bezel construction and the green color, they are exact copies of the real green Sub. The watch is made with solid 316L stainless steel, it has 40.5mm case diameter and measured to be 13mm in thickness, this is exactly the size of the Submariner 11660LV. The San Martin uses a real green ceramic bezel, the bezel is rotatable and has diving markers coated with platinum, San Martin claims on their website, if being coated with platinum, the markers won’t become dark as time goes by. The bezel is soft and smooth to rotate, with slight resistance. The tooth on the bezel are finished very well, your fingers won’t feel scratched when rotating, but I think they should be deeper. The bezel pearl has a domed face.

The green dial is under protection of the sapphire crystal that features anti-reflective coating inside, there is white lume coating on hour markers and hands, I do not like the shield logo of San Martin, fortunately it uses brand lettering instead of the shield at 12 o’clock. The watch is powered by a NH35 automatic movement, which is supposed to have 15 seconds inaccuracy each day, now it gains 8 seconds, I have had it for two weeks. Submariner is really a necessary diver’s watch you should to get when considering a homage.
