IWC Mk XI homage review
Posted: March 21st, 2019, 3:09 pm
Brand: San Martin
Price: $148 (less 15% using ebay special 1 day promotion) ... so let’s call it $127 shipped to my mailbox
Size: 39mm all stainless
Movement: Seiko automatic of some sort
Crystal: sapphire
Crown: screw down
Accessories: see 1st pic (the leather strap on watch is mine)
Weight: 77 grams including the leather strap it’s on.
Other: all sterile (see pics)
My comments: I personally love that it’s sterile, that it has a Seiko.... cheap, bad or otherwise, I personally have a higher opinion of Seiko movements compared to other non Swiss movements. Love the box it comes in. Appreciate the screwdriver... I’m not sure why it was included
- I’ve always wanted to make something similar but it would have cost me more to make something similar.
On to the pics:
2 nato straps.... a friendship bracelet from St. Martin. Warranty card, a friggin screwdriver
- I’m not a nato fan, so I put on a leather cheapie (20mm).
That San Martin sticker peels off
Totally sterile outside
Someone wants to be my friend...(I assume that’s what a friendship bracelet is about?)
Wristy
In summary... what do I think, at $127?
