What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Makydo Mystic Blue

Owners widely praise the Makydo Mystic Blue for its aesthetic appeal, impeccable finishing on the case and bracelet, and its sunburst dial. The 38mm size is noted to wear comfortably, closer to 39mm. Some owners report the clasp takes time to get used to for smooth operation.

Pagani Design PD-1796

The Pagani Design PD-1796 features an open-heart design, not a tourbillon as initially marketed, and includes a noticeable blue anti-reflective coating. Owners are divided on its aesthetic, with some appreciating its unique dial layout and manual/automatic movement, while others find the design unappealing and criticize the lack of AR coating for legibility issues. On balance, the consensus is that owners find the Pagani Design PD-1796 polarizing due to its misrepresented complication and mixed reception on its dial design and AR coating.
