Watch This BEFORE You Buy A Vincero Watch...

- Watch this video before you buy a Vincero watch. Today I'll be showcasing a Vincero watch alternative that performs better and looks better for a quarter of the price. I wish I had known about this Vincero alternative before I bought the Vincero Chrono S for the VIncero watch review on my main Ben Arthur channel. This Pagani Design Chronograph (also known as the PD-2720K) contains a set of specifications that are fantastic for such a low-cost piece.

There was a vincero ad before this video, how ironic.
yup
Same here
Yo same
I mean, unless you're browsing in incognito it's likely that you googled Vincero before searching this video. They collect your search data and cater ads based around what you shop for.
SAAAME i was so surprised but the ad is CRIIINGE it compared a 2$ Amazon Watch with vincero and random people who don’t know shit about watches, probably have never heard of Patek Philippe, saying how the watch is the best they’ve seem and they love it 🙄
My friend bought Vincero before I could stop him. He wanted a simple dress watch, so I told him if he brings Vincero to work and smashes it with the hammer I'll give him my Orient Bambino for free.
Good man
Please keep us updated
If he refuses I'll take an orient Bambino for free!
@@soundwavesuperior6761 My friend refused to destroy Vincero and Bambino is still on the table)) It's not like I'm just dying to give it away for no reason, so you still need to hammer something for it)). My ultimate dress watch now is Certina Himalaya Edition.
You are a good friend.
Got the black version and the Pagani design Hulk during the 11/11 sale , both for £82. The anti-reflective coating is mental and the movement is the Seiko mechaQuartz... excellent value for both.
I own that Pagani and I've to say, even the case has a pretty solid build. It's a 3 piece case that consists of a top ring that holds the dial, the case itself, amd of course, the back. It does take a fair amount of force to open that case and some skill to do it without scratching neither the dial nor the case, and speaking of the dial, it has a velvety finish to it, that doesn't convey over camera neither behind the glass. I'd go as far as to say, it's a serviceable watch, rather than some disposable cheapo.
One of my favorites.
Wow! Definitely a top tier budget watch! For $40, you get an awesome mecha-quartz chrono. My Dan Henry 1964 has a similar movement and it is top notch.
Yeah, no, it's clearly better than Rolex!
Графът се изказа.
Shut up. Just no
Only in a dream😫
@@jeffreyroberson7900
I mean it is just as significant of a space watch as the Daytona...
Without a doubt!
I legit got a Vincero commercial at the begging of this video.
This actually offers a nice middle ground between the minimalist designs and the more complicated ones like the Vincero. I actually might buy this, ngl.
I watched several 'Before you buy a Vincero' videos, since I was considering purchasing one... None of the recommendations were relevant to my wants - the closest was the Timex Weekender, but even that wasn't quite right for me. This is the first watch I actually prefer, at a fraction of the price. Great video, you changed my mind 👍
Much better value for money Harry, hope you enjoy it
I've baught the Pagani design Submariner and Daytona homage watches and they are truly amazing for the price. Love them.
Glad to see a review of a Pagani watch from you. I have seen many reviews of them and they look like a good value: they're on my "to buy" list.
I hope you will consider reviewing one of the *slightly* more pricey Pagani watches with a brand name movement and sapphire crystal.
Got different pagani design as one of my everyday watches and in that category and price point its probably one of the best watches out there
Hi Ben, I’m a bit late watching your review, but I bought 2 Pagani chrono’s in 2 colour ways about 12 months ago. As far as dress watches go, for the money they’re bloody hard to beat!😎👍🏼 Yes they keep great time & are ticking along nicely!🤭
It seems that Pagani Design is the way to go with Chinese watches. Every time you bring one up, it ends up being a pleasant surprise for a very humble price.
I just got a Vincero Gift Card, $50 off -should I use it??
@@Sorrowdusk NOPE
It is. San Martin is even better, but a bit more expensive.
I got the black version for 28€ on an aliexpress sale. Put a silver sharkmesh on it. Looks absolutely georgeous! One of my fav watches indeed. I can only recommend it!
Shortly after getting my first swiss made watch, I ordered 3 Pagani Design watches and they really do fill out the collection quite well considering their price. It allows the everyday man to have a nice collection of mechanical watches without blowing the budget.
Honestly, for the prices Pagani is asking, it would be better to just take a chance on a vintage piece. They're generally better made and, even if they require a servicing, are generally less expensive than Pagani's stuff.
@@jakekaywell5972
I want the drugs you are on. There's no way in hell you'll get any type of decent service for a mechanical vintage watch in a first world country for the price of an average Pagani.
@@Alias_Anybody The watchmaker that has a shop about five blocks from my house services pretty much anything for $75, assuming its not a particularly prominent piece (Rolex, Omega, etc.). If a part is damaged or unusable, obviously the price goes up. I'd imagine it would be the about the same for whatever other independent watchmakers still exist in the U.S. So yeah, it would be better to take a chance on a vintage piece instead of one of these crap piles for my money.
@@jakekaywell5972 not only that. but carrying around this chinese lowest pricerange/finish/quality on your wrist EVERY day. id rather wear a bin laden casio og gshock. my daily now is a grand seiko spring drive
Great channel mate. Keep up the good work. :)
Thanks for the video, I was a vincero watch buyer now im switching over to pagani cuz of you.
I own this watch in rose gold case, same silvery white dial, and I love it, as you said it feels sturdy and well manufactured. About the 30m water resistance, I don't think a dress watch really need any more than that, heck, there are some Patek Philip watches with the same rating. 😀. Thanks for the review, I really like your channel.
Cheers Omer
My wife bought me a Vincero watch. I wore it twice. One of the subdial hands fell off. Where did I leave my Casio?
😂😅
I just got a Vincero ad before this video, they're coming for you Ben
I own a Pagani Design Aquaracer homage and i couldnt be happier. Lot of watch at an affordable price.
I love the subtitles when he says vincero: Mint cherry
Even the auto-captions can't pronounce the brand haha 😂
Pinch arrow 😂
Spot on. I just bought a similar design off Ali for $20 on sale from $50. The 8 in the date window looks like a Seiko 8 and the layout is the same as the Pagani. If I’m lucky, I also got a seiko mecaquartz for less than a pizza. Great vid as usual!
I've had a few different Pagani Design watches, both automatic and quartz. They are actually very good for the money.
I'm getting some serious Junghans Chronoscope vibes from that Pagani.
With its gigantic case-/dial-diameter, this one, sadly, isn't for me though.
This is a great video, great job finding that watch
I bought a Vincero 1.5 years ago and I love the looks. However, after hearing reviews about them and seeing a couple of your reviews I will never buy another Vincero again. I much prefer the look of the Pagani and will be shopping for either that or a Timex, Seiko, Orient, or Invictus. Thx for the excellent and honest review.
Orient sun and moon my man
Wow, the pagani looks Even finer!
Just received my PD Chronograph in cream dial thanks to your comments. The watch is as good as you described it. The thing I like the most is the AR which gives a luxurious look. Thanks
I also just got one of these in cream. I noticed on the case back that is says 100m water resistant. Does yours say 100 or 30 like Ben's?
@@samuell8546
If it's 100m you got the Daytona?
@@Alias_Anybody no, I got the PD-2720 from this video or whatever Pagani's calling it
Beautiful watch do you know any good quality leather strap I can replace strap with?
Thank you Ben's Watch Club, your review of the Pagani inspired me to purchase this exact watch instead of a Vincero. From the United States, LA Express does not import into the lower 48. So I paid a little more from Amazon. But I'm okay with that. So I look forward to the delivery of my Pagani. Keep on with your efforts to promote with educational points of affordable good quality watches. I noticed the bandwidth is an odd size. Can you recommend a good source? Good job, all the best, Peter.
I nearly bought a Vincero watch before I watched this. Got myself 2 Pagani watches for the price of a single Vincero. I got that Pagani in black plus one that looks identical to a Tag Hauer Aquaracer, a watch I've wanted for a long time so thank you for the recommendation. If I saw a Vincero cheap though I'd probably still buy it as I do like some of their designs, but they're overpriced
Thank you for saving me from buying a Vincero. I nearly paid for one. I am now happy with a much cheaper Timex Expedition and am now saving for a Citizen Echo Drive Chandler
Before you splurge for an eco-drive watch, look at them on ebay. They go pretty cheap on ebay, particularly if you don't mind something like "there's a scratch on the glass" or "I'll have to put a missing pin in the bracelet". Sometimes a great slightly older model that was $250 new will go for $50 with no visible flaws. (I'm thinking of one with sapphire glass. I got it for $30. Works great!) If you're willing to spend a little more (like $50) you can get one made of titanium. (Will probably do that sometime when I feel like spending the money.)
I decided I would like an eco-drive watch. (I usually get mechanical watches, but I wanted something for travel that I could let TSA have their way with) I now have three (casual, formal, and a daily use beater), and will buy a fourth when the right one comes along. (I'm looking for a chronograph, maybe one with radio time setting.) All three, together, cost me less than what I was prepared to spend for one new, and that'll still be true when I buy the fourth.
Just check the conditition and size before you buy. I've avoided the "for parts" watches, but I bought one that looked nice... and what arrived was itty bitty. The hand shown with it in the photos must be quite small, it's a womens' watch. (Very pretty though, and I got it cheap, I've saved it to give to a friend when I next see her.)
Brilliant comparison!
I, too, have been bombarded with Vincero ads.... so I ordered this Pagani. Ben, thank you: it's a great looking watch and a great value. I agree about the strap, but I planned to order a better one anyway. Good call, friend!
should do another review with the presage homage pagani
Nice to see a Pagani Design watch on the channel. I feel Pagani Design give one of the highest bangs for a buck, build quality is usually good or sometimes even excellent!
How can we stop vincero from advertising? I am serious, they put me in a mood!

Hi Ben,
Have you ever reviewed Waldor & Co Watches? Saw them pop up today and looked good on the surface.
Love this watch. Pagani at least seems to have a design team. I have had one for about a year, put a beautiful tan three hole rally strap and it gets some compliments and attention from watch guys I meet through my work. There is another Pagani I hope to get soon.
"Pagani at least seems to have a design team."
They may seem to, but they don't. Everything they "design" looks like something somebody else did. That doesn't mean they make a bad product - by all accounts they make great stuff at superb prices - but they get a 0/10 for originality.
Yes... I was waiting for this video... Do more videos talking about aliexpress watches please!! Great video
Much better watch! Awesome review!
I completely agree. I have one of pagani designs divers, really good build quality and a sekio movement. Excellent value 👍🏻
Please sent me a link where you buy this watch
Thx for showing us this! A VK chrono movt. also - wow!
Pagani design makes good watches I daily a submariner homage from them. Sapphire glass, seiko nh35, solid end links, ceramic bezel insert only cost $75. Amazing value I beat it up so my nice way he's can stay nice.
Why does the second hand in pagani watch stops as I pull my watch off my hand? Rest of indicators go correctly, but indicator responsible for seconds stops on 12 every time when the watch is off my hand.
Looks better than the Vincero for sure.
Have you looked at the Benyar chronograph? I got one last month for £15 and could not believe the value especially as it has a 100ths of a second dial. The quality isn't the best, I wasn't expecting it to be, but has a decent quality strap......and it was £15!!!!
Well worth a review!
Hi, just ordered the pagani design watch from the link in the description, but I'm not sure this is their official store, should I be worried?
I have Just got the black version, the leather strap Is poor quality. Any suggestion for a replacement? Can NATO strap be a choice?
Honestly I wonder what time would tell about both watches. I once got one of these "fraction of the price than X brand", and on normal daily usage - office work - the watch that was told to have the same quality seemed completely different after roughly three months. The watch was just destroyed...
I wish I could find more videos on "Fraction of the price after Y time", then I would be more convinced...
Best to stick to the bigger brands, I recently decided to purchase my first automatic which was the orient gen 2 with the roman numerals. The only concern people have had is the strap but that can be replaced.
"Best to stick to the bigger brands" - And this is because...?
Seriously, we're talking about a watch that has a Seiko movement inside. Do you seriously expect failures with the case, dial, or crystal above and beyond what Seiko would have? The case is steel, the dial is the dial and probably nothing will even touch it, and Seiko uses mineral crystal too.
killer review. like 👍
Can you review the brand "Intensity" it's a nice looking everyday watch, but probably dearer than it should be, based on this video
I bought 2 of these Pagani Chrono about 6 months ago & agree with everything you’ve said! One in rose gold & the other in a silver with black dial. Great buys & a lot more expensive look than they were. QC was fantastic on one with the other stop watch hand slightly off centre. Yes some Chinese watches can be hit & miss, but nonetheless I am still impressed! Good review👍🏼😎
You have a refreshing channel within the watch world and that's very welcome. One brand that gets zero airtime is Sekonda,Pulsar ? Argos watches at affordable prices that have good QC heritage and will last for years! Lorus, Limit for ladies etc etc.I mentioned one brand but have digressed! If you want a good watch that will last just go to Argos? Spoilt for choice and they sell Casio. A no brained.Cheers!
Sekonda are my guilty pleasure grab and go watches. They're definitely not for everyone, but I love the British connection, the fact the company started the year England won the world cup, their past links to Soviet watches and their good QC. However, if any watch guys want to call them shitter fashion watches, I thoroughly understand!
Add Rotary to that list of zero reviews too
@@harryflashman2001 My dad swore by them .Good enough for me all these years later.I still own one mechanical he had my name engraved on the back for school. 40 years old now.( the USSR movement and watch).Cheers.
@@saintdave1877 Yes. I believe owned by the Chinese now but so is everything. Great watches and have owned one. No problem and well built! Cheers.
how about victare watches? they are out of toledo, ohio, seen you videos on other brands. thanks
I own a Fossil Neutra Chronograph watch that I personally love but I can't find much about them online. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the brand, would you consider talking about it in a video?
He just did a video about a Fossil watch, and completely trashed it.
I've seen Fossil watches in person (on coworkers' wrists) that were quite nice (actually spurred me to take interest in watches), but they cost about 4 times the price of the one he reviewed. Either they make nice watches expensively and cheap watches cheaply and he just got one of the cheap ones, or they used to make nice watches and don't any more, I don't know which.
There's a chronograph for under $100, depending on where you look, it's the Seiko sndc31. It looks pretty good in my opinion
I don't know if it's included in the current sale, but for a few bucks more, you can get this one on a metal bracelet. It's not the best bracelet in the world, but well worth the 5-7 USD markup I payed when I bought mine. I think I ended up paying 65-70 USD at the time.
If I wanted to change the strap in the watch which strap do I get? Or are all straps the same size? First watch problems
Hey Eugene, this one takes 22mm straps mate 👍
I swear I just had a Vincero Ad before this video starts!
Hey Ben, could you do the same for Filippo Loreti watch?
Orient makes some excellent watches. My orient bambino has an automatic movement and domed glass all for $150
I recently paid $135 for a watch with Seiko automatic movement, sapphire glass, and bronze case. I can easily find a watch with a Miyota automatic movement, steel case with steel bracelet, and sapphire glass, for $80. My point here is that we're both probably buying a brand name, once you get to the "below $200" price you can usually find great stuff if you shop enough, the point of the watch reviewed is that it's a great value for the money, not the best watch in the world.
Yeah, Orient makes some *great* watches. $150 is still a lot of money for someone in the market for a $30 quartz watch.
Ordered white one on bracelet. Higher price now than two years ago but still inexpensive for a watch with VK67A movement. Also nice that it's not a homage. Good review.
Hi Ben, I discovered your chain a few days only ago, but i'm really impressed by your professionalism and your passion. I'm wondering if you have ever reviewed 24H wristwatch, like the ones from the brand "Gustave & Cie". It popped up on my Ig feed, but I'd love to hear your thoughts about it.
I had a Vincero Bellwether model once, almost same price as chrono-s but with mecha-quartz movement as the Pagani Design. The quality was not impressive but not too bad either and certainly with a better strap than Pagani's. But the better value for money of the Pagani Design is undeniable.
Definitely agreed.
Ben, what is your opinion on the best minimalist watch, lightest, thinnest 200-400$, Thanks Brian in Canada. Appreciated your comments on Vincero.
That video made me buy a Pagani a year ago. Great watch, I love it. Unfortunately mine came with a bit of dirt under the crystal but that doesn't really bother me for that price. When I need to change the battery, I will clean it. The minute hand of the chronograph stopped working a few weeks back, I don't know if it's worth fixing it or if I should just get a new one instead. Doesn't really bother me either, I only got the chronograph model for aesthetics and not function anyway. I purchased a new strap because the old one started to fall apart. Besides these negative points, I would still recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap watch.
Get a new one I only hearing Ontario and we could sometimes charge more than the actual watch itself so the minute hand on your chronograph stopped working depending on the movement and the watch it could be more expensive or cheaper
I love my pagani. I have the black dial one and it's awesome
Got one last year. Full stainless and it's very nice. Both quality and looks. Really happy about it and under 90€ 🤷♂️
The same one? 90€? You overpaid massively.
I own Tudors and Omegas...I bought a Pagani Designs Hulk three weeks ago and I can't take it off my wrist. Best watch value in the world - $67.00 shipped - Seiko movement, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, brushing and polishing, solid link bracelet with screws and a flip lock clasp. 100% win.
No thanks. I'll stick to my Rolex Daytona panda ceramic and Omega speedmaster
They say that they have a Seiko movement, Saphire glass and ceramic bezel - but do they really?
@@bingobongo1615 yes they do, it's easy to tell.
@@bingobongo1615
There are plenty of reviews on YT, check them out.
Pagani design watches seem to be great bang for the buck.
Just got that vincero ad where they say three watches all the same price the one spends three times more on materials and you get three times more compliments
Well done Ben, just tell it as it is. I'd guess the Vincero watches are priced high to cover the insane blanket advertising. I'd like a Pagani, shame it's just too big for my wrist size.
They make a great variety of watches, you might look at their shop on Aliexpress. Make sure to read the listing carefully to get what you want, they have various features like various nice movements and sapphire glass, but they also make watches that are kinda boring.
Wow Ben, this watch looks great. I really like piston pushers for some reason. There are some Megir watches that look very similar but doesn't have that mecha-quartz movement and piston pushers.
Great review as always! Vincero who?
Is Megir any good? I've seen a few on amazon the designs are decent.
@@Samurai9901 I have two Megirs, one is a really nice chronograph and the other is meh.
Does someone know the link to buy the Vincero from the manufacturers in China without the branding?
I kind of want to buy an orient bambino, after being convinced to not buy vincero. Would you recommend those?
I've bought a few pagani design watches there always awsome value for money. if you don't mind waiting a few weeks Ali express are really good lots of bargains I've bought nearly a dozen watches from them 👍
Also consider a timex weekender chrono, I love mine.
can check a kapten and son watch please i don't know if its worth it
Hello Ben! I also don't like MVMT and Vincero, could you do a video about moving on from cheap alliexpress watches and starting to put your money into quality?
Hey Ben could you check out Tevise and Winner watches on aliexpress? They're both chinese watches but pretty cheap.
Pagani Design's watches have gotten better since they came onto the scene. Their Submariner homage watch is a ridiculous value: Seiko NH movement, ceramic bezel and sapphire glass. The only downside is that it's a little on the large side. The one being reviewed is a very good looking chrono for a great price.
Check out the Pagani Design Daytona, it's beautiful. I ordered one the second I saw it.
Got one of those! Think it was £26, out a £40 colareb strap on it, looks great for the combined price
I know this video has released 2yrs now, but i wanna commented that Im very impressed with Pagani Design watch quality, and u certainly gve it a great review. Thus, I feel like u should check out the likes of William L. 1985, I like how they dont hide the fact that they are Chinese made. Even their first chronograph is pretty cool looking.
They are making a profit because when they buy bulk movements from the company directly, it costs almost half. So, it's a huge profit margin. I helped my friend produce his first series of watches using miyota movement, the movement was priced 6 dollars, we bought 300 pieces for 2.69$ per piece.

Hi Ben another great video, no one seems to be doing anything on seconda. It would be great if you could do a video on this brand.
derek fox I know Sekonda UK quite well: started in 1966 it's a timepiece distributor, it's free to source products anywhere it wants, and for the first couple of decades, most - if not all - products were sourced from the Soviet Union, rebranded as Sekonda, and being a major customer a few exclusive models were made by the Russian makers too. Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, products gradually dried up, so Sekonda switched to other sources, but some of the newer products are still homages of the earlier designs.
What do u think of sekonda
Vincero actually has a nice watch line called the rouge , I don't know why everyone picks the Chrono s
People have different taste.
The rogue is the only one worth having, I believe it even has different movement, but may be wrong about that
Just bought a Pagani Design chronograph after seeing this. With a metal strap and shipping it was just under €60. Hope it's good!
You gotta do a wrist check before you start your videos on a Pagani/Vincero watch. Love your channel, new sub!
I have two watches, both black and one stainless steel amd the other rose gold. I have a black and brown strap that i switch out depending on what i wear. I have gotten quite a few "nice watch" comments when i wear it out. Now, im not a watch guy AT ALL. I pretty much wear them when i want to look a little nicer and not my garmin smart gos watch. If youre not a watch snob, ive been super happy with my two.
Whats your opinion on U-boat watches?
Nice video! Thank you for sharing your input on Vincero watches. I bought the black & gold Kairos Vincero watch for $100 USD + $7 tax [$107.00 total]. I used a $50 off $100 or more coupon plus free shipping. The watch is alright for what it is but the way I see it is if you have to use coupons and rewards cash it's an automatic red flag. Certain companies do this in order to make you feel you're saving money when in reality you are not. Let me explain: Say you visit the Vincero website and see a watch for $295 USD right. That's not the true price, it's a decoy figure so that they can justify their 15% - 30% coupons or $50 off $100 coupon. The true price is after using one of their coupons. That's the real value of their products, so if you pay the decoy price you're over paying my friend.
Bought the same one,good watch but something about,returning it for my cash back to get another watch that’s better priced and bette quality.and on the coupon part you are absolutely right,it’s like they constantly offer you coupons or offers,makes people wanna buy them ,bought mine for 130
Seen adds for a Helgard (I think). Has some nice colorways, looks like their own designs but same Seiko mvmt as the Pagani. I had similar thoughts, though probably much nicer than the Vincenzo still nowhere near the value of the Parnis or Pagani Daytonas.
Perhaps a good review for another time.
