Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1661 Gold for its specifications at its price point, highlighting the 40mm case, ceramic bezel, sapphire crystal, and Seiko NH35 movement. However, the lume is reported as poor, and the bracelet has sharp edges and lacks micro-adjustment. Accuracy varies, with one owner noting approximately +10 seconds per day. On balance, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1661 Gold highly for its impressive specifications and value at the price.
The PD-1661 Gold delivers solid construction and excellent value under $100, with a sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, and milled clasp that justify the price for a Submariner homage. Lume brightness is notably weak, limiting visibility in low-light conditions. Reviewers disagreed on whether the watch's overall execution matched its affordability, with some emphasizing construction quality while others focused more on the lume limitation's impact on practical usability.
Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1788 GMT NH34 for its good size and attractive design, with some noting it appears to be a quality step up for the brand. However, opinions are split on its value and aesthetic execution; some owners love it and find it cool, while others consider it a poor copy, too expensive, and note issues like faded dial print and a bracelet that looks bad on certain variants. One owner found their unit arrived DOA, and another suggests regulating the NH34 movement for reliability. Overall, owners are divided on the Pagani Design PD-1788 GMT NH34, with strong opinions ranging from love for its design and perceived quality to criticism of its execution and price point.
