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-1708

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1708's solid build and surprisingly high-quality finishing for its price point, with one owner noting a comfortable 38mm case and a well-made tapered mesh bracelet featuring a signed safety clasp. However, the lume is described as a bit weak, though evenly applied. Accuracy with the VK64 movement averaged around +6.5 seconds per month over 14 months. On balance, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1708 highly for its value and bracelet quality at its price.

From video reviewers

The Pagani Design PD-1708 features a reliable and accurate Japanese VK64 movement. A notable weakness is the lume brightness, which could be improved, particularly in low-light conditions. Reviewers disagree on the bezel diameter, with some users potentially finding it small for the 46mm case length, while others may not have an issue with it.

Studio Underd0g Salmon

Owners widely praise the Studio Underd0g Salmon for its unique, two-layered dial inspired by salmon skin, featuring a radially brushed metallic orange-pink lower part and a coarse, silvery dégradé shimmer upper part. The watch is powered by a decorated Swiss mono pusher movement with silky smooth winding, blued screws, and anthracite bridges, which one owner finds impressive. Accuracy is reported at ±5 seconds per day. Some owners find the £1700-£1800 price point difficult, especially given styling similarities to previous models. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Studio Underd0g Salmon highly for its distinctive dial design and well-finished, smooth-winding monopusher movement.
