Pagani Design PD-1722vsLongines LONGINES MASTER COLLECTION

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1722 for its attractive dial with blued indices and hands, balanced proportions, and functional power reserve complication, considering it a modern classic and a proper strap monster for under $100. Some owners find the watch too thick and wide, and the stock strap is consistently described as poor, with an upgrade recommended. One owner notes the lack of anti-reflection coating on the crystal. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1722 highly for its dial and value, despite noted thickness and strap quality.

Owners widely praise the Longines Master Collection for its attractive designs, heritage feel, and value, with specific models highlighted for their legibility and manageable sizes. One owner finds the 40mm moonphase chronograph complete calendar mesmerizing and versatile at around $1700, while another appreciates the 38mm World Timer's looks and blue hands. A drawback noted across different models is limited water resistance, with one owner selling their watch due to this, and the World Timer disc requiring manual adjustment for daylight saving time in some areas. On balance, owners rate the Longines Master Collection highly for its aesthetic appeal and value proposition, despite some limitations in water resistance and functionality.
