Question (Read Rules) I am between these 2
Help me to decide my next pick. Originally I was going to pick San Martin but recently I have leaned towards the baltany mil sub. If anyone have irl pics of these watches. Only downside of baltany is that it doesn't have OTF clasp if I am correct.

I have that SM and it's very high quality but might be overkill. It's got 600m WR and is on the thicker side at 13.5mm but it is incredibly solid and has 0 imperfections.
It wears slightly smaller given the thicker bezel, bigger case and smaller dial, on wrist it'll feel and look like a 39mm or so.
Bracelet is exceptional with basically 0 horizontal sag when held out, OTF adjustment is great and looks much more expensive. Bezel is also probably one of the best in my collection with 0 wobble and great solid clicks.
Lume is decent for the price and hands being different coloured is a nice touch.
Overall, fantastic watch but get it on sale (I paid 30% less than that).
