Pagani Design PD-1755vsThorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V2

Owners widely report a polarizing design, with some appreciating the retro-future vibe and all-brushed finish, while others criticize jarring elements like the mix of curvy and pointy dial/bezel numbers, a bezel insert clashing with the dial, and an "ugly yellow/orange" faux patina. Some owners also dislike the Mercedes hands and the single-domed crystal. On balance, owners find the Pagani Design PD-1755 enjoyable for daily wear, with its value being a significant draw.

Owners widely report the Thorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V2 offers a slim wearability and vintage sub aesthetic, with one owner calling it a phenomenal homage and underpriced for its smooth PT5000 movement, tophat sapphire, and bezel. However, some owners flag concerns about quality control, with reports of a loose bezel, dial movement when setting time and date, and an inconsistent crown. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner noting 0/+2 seconds per day for the PT5000 movement, while another experienced a power reserve of only 6 hours and 20 minutes. On balance, owners rate the Thorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V2 highly for its comfortable wearability and vintage design at its price point, despite some reported quality control issues.
