A friend of mine with a real Daytona was actually impressed with my Pagani. He did not ask how much I paid, and I chose not to ruin his day.
lol good choice 😂
Yeah I have the speedy pagani. Really a LOT of value and great quality for the price
Thanks for the review! I thought the Benyar was just a rebranded Pagani. Really appreciate you taking the time to go over all the differences.
I just got the Benyar version yesterday. Can't find any fault with it. It's as beautiful as others and functioning perfectly as it should! The lum is also very bright and strong. Just my personal opinion.
Is it still working??
@@Kakashi_sharinganwala 😂
Fantastic and detailed comparison.
Benyar offers amazing value, or pay twice as much and get stunning Pagani value.
In the space of 2 years, or so, the price of meca-quartz watches has collapsed.
I’ve had the Benyar for several months now. It keeps brilliant time and is a great addition to my 30 watch collection. Changed the strap for a grey leather strap and it looks great and is very comfortable to wear. All in all a great every day watch which looks great.
Thank you for sharing! 🙂👍
Pagani is what I'd pick. Sapphire at this low price? Amazing. That, alone, is most impressive. I'm a watch newb but I've seen over 100 watch reviews from all kinds of people, and I've seen $150 to $200 watches with NO sapphire. Wow.
Да
Thank you for your very concise yet complete comparison. I have been looking and considering the Daytona homage Pagani 1644 and you have shown that it does have many strong points to it. A real chronograph with the meca-quartz movement, the sapphire crystal, the definitely superior bracelet with its solid end links and a much nicer clasp mechanism. All in all, even at twice the price proposition I feel that the Pagani 1644 wins the day! I have just discovered your channel and because of the quality of presentation You have gained my subscription and a definite thumbs up. I look forward to seeing more of your work on the Shiny Things channel. Thank you again.
The tachymetre on the Pagani looks crisper and more legible too.
A very impressive comparative review of budget line watches...I like it!
The Benyar is fantastic value for money, but the PD is an amazing spec monster for the price, and is still amazing value, more so than the Benyar.
I just received my Pagani Daytona, it's on a brown leather strap and I love it.
Not sure if you you know that Benyar is a brand owned by Pagani Design Company. Both brands are produced at the same factory in Guangzhou, China
👍👌
Just spend the extra money and get the Pagani, it’s a real chronograph. It’s a terrific watch for the money.
Perfect review. Thanks from Brazil!
Pagani having the VK mecaquartz In it is why I got one. Also Pagani watches are pretty darn good especially for the price point. They are hard to beat.
I've wondered for months what the differences are. Thank you!
That Benyar chronograph in Sweden costs about $240, and the Pagani $75
Invicta has a similar one. It would be interesting to include in this sourvey
I'm new to the watch world. I currently own two casio watches. I am currently binge watching a lot of videos about watches and I'm amazed and overwhelmed by a lot of the cheap watches coming from China.
Thanks for recording in 4K. Might want to put a 4k icon in corner for future videos.
I have the Pagani PD-1644 on the rubber strap rose gold. I have showed with it great watch. I had for. 3 months now.
Thank you for a great review. I have several Pagani Design watches and have considered the Benyar because of the lower price. I was not sure what quality the Benyar offered due to the lower price, and this review is very informative. As such, Shiny Things will be one site I consistently come to when considering watches. So which watch would I go with, for this style, because of the sweep of the second hand, and the screw down crown, I will be going with the Pagani Deisgn.
Gracias, muy buen comentario y una buena guía para poder ver las diferencias entre los relojes. Prefiero el Pagani Design porque el cronógrafo en el segundero mayor es más útil.
@Carlos Candiani, I'm glad you found it useful! Thank you for watching! 🙂👍
Going by the other reviews of Benyar watches, their case is unlikely to be stainless steel. So another point of distinction.
@V, I agree, it is definitely a point of difference 🙂 I do mention that the benyar I have in the video is coated and not solid stainless steel in the 'Cases' section. Thank you for watching! 🙂👍
It's easy to see in the video that the Pagani Designs bezel is brighter than the Benyar one
viewing this video again and again makes me pull the trigger to get the pd1644 just now eventhough i'm not into chrono watches. LOL...
Very very usefull review about de two similar watches.
I have the Pagani, it's brilliant, incredible value for money.
I am more of a collector than a hard user or even a diver, in other words if a watch looks very nice and i gotta have it in my collection I will buy it because I bare wear one watch at all times. In this case, I like 2 versions of the homage, one is with silver dial on the smaller dials, and black dials on the smaller dials, I can buy the Benyar for the price of 2 and add them to my collection.
Have you ever compare Pagani's Daytona with Parnis? Which one has a better finishing?
I've had my pagani design watch for over a year now and it is a nice watch, I did however put it on a leather rally strap as I didn't like the finish of the bracelet with it's sharp edges on the clasp (a common complaint), my only complaint other than the bracelet is the large second hand which reset after I'd had it awhile to just before the 12 and with movement not letting you adjust the hands it's a little annoying (o,c,d), it is very accurate running at -1 seconds a month, the price out ways the complaints, would recommend
Have the Pagini Design and cant fault it.👍
Is Pagani related to Benyar? I was looking at a PD1644 listing and was a bit surprised to see Benyar mentioned in the description of the product. I reckon a lot of these Chinese watches are related. Like you would see a particular watch design sold under different brands.
Benyar is a sub brand of Pagani
Llevo varios años coleccionando, relojes chinos, hasta que me harté de la mala calidad de sus maquinarias y acabados, hasta pasarme a relojes japoneses y empezando a ver de reojo algunos suizos y alemanes, porque prefería la calidad a cualquier otra cosa eso si mirando bien el precio… Pero hace un mes, compré el Pagani Design Speedmaster, y me ha dejado loco de contento al ver que todo lo que necesitaba se cumplía verdadera calidad precio y también con el calibre meca Quart de Seiko … así que ya sé cuál va a ser el próximo. Muchas gracias por la comparativa ❤
Thank you for sharing! 🙂👍
Thanks Man. excellent.
I literally just bought the PD1644 for £27.85 (£33.34 inc. Tax). Not from official PD Store but at 50% saving it seemed 'worth a punt'. I opted for the version with the textured Silver/Meteorite dial. I understand QC can be a bit variable but at that price it's virtually a disposable item. If I get a year or two out of it, I'll be happy enough. I like to think that a Seiko movement should be sufficiently reliable to do that.
Recently purchased a Steeldive SD1953 and am deleriously happy with it. I'm a bit of a homage newbie and enjoying these incredible value timepieces
From where?
Well not 100% happy with both. If I had to choose I tend to prefer the Pagani. I'm missing a third version here: manual wind or automatic, preferably ST19, together with the functionality of a Daytona or Moonwatch homage...
I bought the Pagani for $38 on Ali during a sale a couple months ago.
Looks like the Benyar case is plated base metal, vs the solid stainless steel of the Pagani.
That is a massive step down in quality, and puts the Benyar out of the running as far as I'm concerned - it is a disposable fashion watch.
I have 2 PD watches. A 2720k and 1644. They are both excellent value functional watches. I've my first Benyar watch (a 5140m) due tomorrow. They come from the same factory I read, and whilst the Benyar is a slightly lower end piece I still expect it to be good.
I prefer the Pagani Date, but the Benyar Bracelet..lol.. but for the price I would probably get the Benyar, just purely because without my glasses and a cyclops I would have difficulty reading the date, as such the only thing that would then give priority would be the water resistance.
I generally buy watches always with 100m or more water resistance, but this year as seen me buy 9 watches with 30m-50m water resistance just for general use and as beater watches.
パガーニデザインですね。セイコーメカクオーツは魅力的です。
I got a pagani design watch for fun just to see how many compliments I get for this ridiculously cheap watch 😂
Thank you for this video XD
Looked like they are made by the same company !
Same design paper work in both watches !
Both are nice 👍
good comparison, thanks! By the way, it’s Ben-y-ar, not Ben-air!
The Pagani is so far ahead of the Banyar for the price. I understand that you buy what you can afford, but when the Pagani is so cheap when on offer, there's really not much between them price wise
cant get past the date on either
You forgot to mention a relevant issue: the accuracy
Quartz are accurate af
The tachymeter bezel on the Benyar does not make any sense, and the watch case is probably an alloy and not solid 316 steel as in the Pagani Design. But the most important flaw in the Benyar and the main reason it costs one half the price of the Pagani Design is its low-quality Chinese movement.
I actually bought two different color versions of the Pagani Design Daytona and I don't regret it, I might even buy a third one!
The movement in pagani is way better to me even just bc it kinda sweeps not TICK TICK TICK
Benyar got a bad rep by lying about case material. I Got my Phylida Rail Master Gen 2 Yesterday and Love it. Full Satin Finish NH35 Domed Sapphire, Female End Links fully articulating.
Sorry but for "only" 165€ .... no big deal, you have a wonderful mechanical Alpha Daytona, i did that ... twice + 1 Alpha "Speedmaster" !!!
THEY'RE BOTH MADE BY THE SAME COMPANY SAME FACTORY BUT PAGANI IS THE FLAGSHIP PRODUCT I JUST ORDER FOR PAGANI IN RUBBER STRAP FOR £27 AND THIS BENYAR FOR £14 ON BRACELETS BOTH ON SALE.
One is sapphire and has pushdown with Seiko and 100m. The price is the difference. I expect the more expensive one to have better materials. You could put diamonds in it and a Rolex movement and make it a 100K "dollar" watch. These watches are made at the same factory. Its about how much money you want ti spend. They should say "hours" instead of Tachometer on the bezel.
There both the same company. Benyar is supposedly their cheaper line of watch's.
Ben air? Or ben yar?
Sugess Top Chronometer daytona homage all day every day 😎
I reviewed it too. Loved it! It is a bit more expensive though. Here is my full review: ua-cam.com/video/LfYyr62i0Fc/v-deo.html
From a glance the big thing I noticed was the text on the bezel was almost not visible on the Benyar.
I think benyar doesn't use cheramic bazel
Pagani Design is way over the other crappy watch
I own from a year the Pagani and this very good watch .. work like a charm and very accurate !!!!
As usual Benyar is not the best but is a ridiculous value proposition.
I think the Pagani is made in the same factory as the Parnis......................
Benyar watches better than naviforce, nibosi and curren?
certainly
The Pagani Design is cheap enough I'm very happy with mine
Well I think there’s a very clear winner here. I will get the Rolex 😂 But for now the Pagani will do 👍🏼
Spanish subtitles?
@El Lente De La Calle, in few hours! 🙂
@El Lente De La Calle, should be availble now 🙂👍
PD all the way
I don't understand why the lumination feature of any of these watches, Benyar, Pagani or even Lige is so bad. I had a cheap watch when I was a kid and I remember how it glowed in the dark by default. It was not a feature. Why they are having such dramas wit the illumination of dials at night I have no idea. Unless we were getting nuclear glow back in the 70's.
Absolutely. I can't see the point of a lume that you have to activate with a UV torch and which fades away in less than 20 minutes.
Psst let me spoil it for you.. because just about EVERYTHING it was made way better in the 70s-90s than it is today, believe it or not. Just look at cars for example.
You can get the benyar even for 14€
Ben-ehhrrrr vs Pagani Design
Benyar
The Parnis daytona would hold it's own against the Pagani.
@Hunter Bautista, I guess, I might need to get one in for review 🙂 Thanks for watching! 🙂👍
Первый
pagani design is way superior to benyar
Spent the extra money and buy a Pagani.
⚠️⚠️Never buy Benyar in 2023 there cases are chromed!!!!! Its Brass!!!!⚠️⚠️
The problem with these Daytona homages is the cheap and nasty black tachymeter bezel. For the love of god make a stainless steel bezel an option.
Put the Pagani on your wrist, put the Benyar in the trash.
Pagani ,It is a clumsy case, I also have it, clumsy model, the lume is a joke, and the stopwatch is also a joke, you can turn it on and off, nothing more, no time in between, so a stupid watch.
I would have chosen Pagani over Benyar, right up till I found it to be made in China as I,m sure the Benyar is...No thanks
