Lorier RooseveltvsPagani Design PD-1707

Owners widely praise the Lorier Roosevelt's stunning dial, precise stamping, and clean printing, with its brass case and Horween strap also receiving positive remarks. Some owners find it wears perfectly on a 7" wrist. However, the Miyota 9-series rotor is noted as being "insanely loud," and the original $800 price point is considered steep by some, particularly given the lack of lume and competition. One owner sold it for $525, highlighting it as a great deal on a sold-out item. Overall, owners value the Lorier Roosevelt for its attractive dial and case finishing, though price and rotor noise are points of contention.

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1707 for its sporty, masculine, and technically elegant appearance, with many finding its size and weight comfortable and well-balanced. The general finish is considered excellent for the price, and the dial is described as awesome and beautiful. However, some owners note slightly sharp edges on the bracelet links, and the bracelet itself is described as poor by one user. The bezel is often misaligned, and the chronograph seconds hand is small and hard to see. Additionally, the tiny screw-down chronograph pushers are difficult to operate, especially on the wrist, and the subdials can hinder quick time reading. Some owners note the end link appears larger than the lugs. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1707 highly for its attractive design and good finishing at the price, despite some functional and finishing drawbacks.
