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-1679

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1679 for its exceptional value, with many citing its impressive finishing and quality for the price, some even comparing it favorably to more expensive timepieces. Specific highlights include the "Tommy" color scheme, a comfortable canvas-look strap with a durable rubber backing and a cool buckle, and a transparent case back. The bezel action is noted as decent, and the C3 lume, while bright, is reported by some to wear off quickly, with others describing it as poor. Some owners dislike the dial numerals and find the watch to be thick or chunky. The second crown is purely decorative. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1679 highly for its outstanding value and attractive design elements at its low price point.

Zelos Swordfish 3

Owners widely praise the Zelos Swordfish 3 for its strong value, with reviewers highlighting the textured sandwich dial, Seiko NH35 movement, 200m water resistance, and surprisingly good bracelet. The titanium construction is noted for making the watch compact and comfortable, weighing 117g. Some owners find the dimensions fine on paper and based on experience with other models. One reviewer flagged that legibility can suffer in bright light and bracelet edges are sharp. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Swordfish 3 highly for its incredible value and fun design, particularly with unique dial options.
