What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Pagani Design PD-1667

Pagani Design PD-1667 owners praise its handsome design and the reliable Seiko NH35A movement, noting it offers significant value for its price point. However, the included silicone strap is widely reported as uncomfortable, with one owner specifically flagging the deployment clasp as difficult to adjust and potentially insecure due to manufacturing tolerances. Lume quality is also noted as not being great. On balance, owners consider the Pagani Design PD-1667 a strong value proposition, especially if one is willing to replace the strap.

From video reviewers

The Pagani Design PD-1667's ceramic bezel is a notable feature, praised by multiple reviewers for its solid construction and premium feel. A weakness of the watch is its somewhat lacking lume brightness, which is a trade-off considering its budget-friendly price. Reviewers disagree on the value of the watch, with one reviewer noting that the price has dropped, implying decreased value, while another reviewer praises the watch's features for its price range.

Vario 1918 SG60 Merlion Trench

The Vario 1918 SG60 Merlion Trench is widely seen as a commemorative keepsake, particularly for those celebrating Singapore's 60th anniversary or born in 1965. Reviewers note its vibrant red enamel dial and 37mm steel case with fixed wire lugs, along with 100m water resistance. One owner reported the watch is "patina-ing well" after three years, and the Miyota 82S5 movement is considered a reliable, cost-effective base. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Vario 1918 SG60 Merlion Trench as a unique souvenir and tribute piece, with its distinctive enamel dial being a key draw.
