    I just bought one and it does not have the problems mentioned. This video is a year old, so I am guessing Pagani has fixed them. I am certainly enjoy mine with both the Milanese bracelet and the NATO strap. The No Time to Die black root beer colour scheme works well with the supplied black NATO strap.

    What I learned is that about 90% of the people care less the brand a man wears. (Cloths, shoes, watch, etc)
    In life you can opt in to pay for brand or not.
    There are some items that is worth buying brand in therms of life expectancy for the item.
    Like anything there items that don’t make difference in that I refer to a watch.
    Pagani is such unrated brand.
    You get the same quality or better than other major brands charging 3x time.
    Is not perfect….
    But hey I am no diver or pro.
    All I need is solid watch that I can tell time and it’s good looking watch to match my outfit.

    For most people, the difference between 100m and 300m water resistance is meaningless. Heck even 30m to 300m is meaningless - recreational scuba divers aren't certified to go deeper than 30m, and very few snorkelers can dive deeper than 10m. 100m is hella deep!

    The latest version I got recently of the '007' (and it's referring to the older design from Pierce Bronson 007) doesn't seem to be plagued by bezel issues, the Planet Ocean style 3-link bracelet is fine and now has a female end link design. Fits and looks better. BTW, you can easily order the factory matching rubber-nylon dive strap straight from the Pagani factory store. It's $20. PS. They now have the black-gold styled "No Time To Die" version available.
    PS-2.. the 'Seamaster 300M' version with the updated wavy dial and 6 o'clock date window and 9-link Seamaster bracelet (which is done pretty well, but lacks the 007's milled wetsuit extension).
    It is also rated to 200M WR. I have both models, the blue 007, black 300M, and blue-steel grey 300M. All three are excellent quality. The 300M versions have Lume for the bezel numerals and markers.
    Also much cheaper from their factory store, or their AliExpress store.

The Matic is a pretty faithful homage with good build quality. Based on my review of reviews, that’s the one that’s closest to an Omega, but at a “budget friendly” price point.

    Pagani returns policy is fantastic. I had one which did not work and they sent me out a replacement immediately without return.

      I wish I could say the same. I bought one of their Daytona homages, and the top pusher fell off the first time I tried to use it.
      They ignored my refund request until it timed out, and aliexpress stepped in and gave me a partial refund.
      I am now appealing the partial refund, since I don't want to pay any amount of money for a broken watch.
      It's looking like I will probably end up having to dispute the charge with my credit card company.
      This is the second time something like this has happened. The first time was a Pepsi GMT that was running about 3 mins/day fast.
      Pagani ran the clock out by asking me to take various photos and videos of the watch, presumably just to waste time hoping I would give up. I eventually did give up, and still have the watch.
      The only reason I bought the Daytona after my GMT experience was because I thought a quartz watch would be a relatively safe purchase. Live and learn I guess.
      I will only buy via Amazon from now on. It costs a bit more money, but it's worth it to protect you from the fraudsters at Pagani.

    Great honest review! I've owned a few Pagani Design watches and they're not bad, I bought them mostly because they were cheap and I was curious. I still have two of them but don't wear them very much, will probably sell them eventually. If you want to check out some better Chinese knockoff brands look at Steeldive, San Martin and SEESTERN. Of coarse they're still not going to come anywhere close to competing with the real watches they're aping, but the quality, in my humble opinion, is a good bit better than Pagani Design. And the lume is a whole lot better too, maybe even better than the original in some cases.

I'm not a big fan of "homage" watches; however, I do own a Tudor Black Bay GMT (Rolex Pepsi). I didn't buy it because I secretly wanted a Pepsi, it was the differences from the Rolex that I liked.
