Curator's Note — San Martin Retro GMT Sandwich Automatic
Curator's Note
Just returned from Basel, and this retro GMT caught my attention immediately. The NH34 is Japan's workhorse automatic — found in watches costing twice as much. What matters here is the execution: full luminous sandwich dial, sapphire bezel with 24 clicks, and a screw-down crown that doesn't feel like theater. 40mm, 13.5mm thick, designed for men who understand tool watches. It's honest engineering without pretense.
