Pagani Design PD-1723vsYema Navygraf Marine Nationale Quartz

Pagani Design PD-1723 is praised for its attractive dial, sapphire crystal, and overall finishing, with owners appreciating its vintage-inspired aesthetics and minimalist logo. The watch is noted to wear larger than its 37mm case size due to a thin bezel and 20mm lugs, feeling closer to 39mm on a 7-inch wrist. Lume is a point of contention, with some finding it surprisingly good on the indices and 12 o'clock position, while others describe it as poor, particularly on the hands. The bracelet is widely considered to be of low quality, though some find it comfortable with a nice taper, and many owners prefer using aftermarket straps. Discrepancies between product listings and received watches, particularly regarding movement branding and the PT5000 movement's potential winding issues and rotor rattle, have been noted. The V2 update features an exhibition caseback and a clasp swap, which some owners prefer over the V1, while others favor the V1's hands and dial proportions.

Owners praise the Yema Navygraf Marine Nationale Quartz for its well-made case, clean legible dial, and comfortable 39mm size, with one noting its thin profile for 300m water resistance. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting +6 seconds per day and another seeing it keep within COSC time. Minor criticisms include a steel bracelet with a slight rattle and sharp edges, bent bracelet pins, and in one instance, crooked dial printing. On balance, owners find the Yema Navygraf Marine Nationale Quartz offers good value and wearability, with its French design and thinner case being key highlights.
