What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Pagani Design PD-1816

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1816 for its sapphire crystal and VK67 quartz movement, with some actively seeking this specific combination. One owner notes the jubilee bracelet as a positive feature. Conversely, some find the design's originality to be a weakness, with one commenter identifying it as a TinTin homage. On balance, owners value the Pagani Design PD-1816 for its specific movement and case combination, despite some reservations about its design originality.

Praesidus Arctic Field

The Praesidus Arctic Field is noted for its good readability and a faux patina that suits its style, with a blue anti-reflective coating on the sapphire crystal being a welcome detail. One reviewer highlights its 38mm titanium case with a brushed finish and 11.35mm thickness as well-crafted and elegant. On balance, reviewers find the Praesidus Arctic Field to be a readable and well-finished field watch.

From video reviewers
