Thank you everyone for your love of PAGANI DESIGN watches. If you have any subtle problems with the watch, please make suggestions and we will definitely improve
Thanks for the thorough review. I quite like the red ring on the screw down crown; a bit of contrast. At any rate, it's certainly not a deal breaker for me.
Very well done review mate, seems like a pretty solid package overall. Don't usually go for GMTs - as I don't have a need for them. But this would be a good option if I did.
I own this watch ("Pepsi"). The review fully reflects my experiences. The watch's rather high thickness is probably due to the even more bulky body of the original Tudor Black Bay GMT.
Seems like quite a lot of watch for your money good to see that they've upgraded the lume, PD does seem to get a bit of a bashing usually in the comments section of pretty much any review but I think some people need to remember that they are only around 100 bucks
I think you hit the nail on the head here. One must remember that these are AFFORDABLE time pieces and should be regarded as such. Thanks for watching Adrian!
General i dont like PD watches but this one is well made if you like black bay dial,price though is a bit high and put you in thoughts , but again you end up with a good bracelet for other watches,thanks Aviv nice holidays😀😀
This one is definitely better finished than other Pagani Designs, and I don't actually think it's over priced. They seem to be raising their prices in general (and not only Pagani Design) and that's never a nice thing for us consumers, but it is still a good price for what you get in my opinion. Thanks for watching buddy, happy holidays!
I have a couple of PDs and for the money they are awesome pieces, I like the Batman 👌👌 The crown ring doesn’t bother me 😀 colourblind 😂😂 Great review as always 🤩
I purchased this watch at the recent 11/11 sale. To me there is a lot to like with this watch. The only "con's" being the lack of AR and that divers extension, which I will never use. In regards to the crown the red seal is hardly noticeable particularly when the watch is on wrist.
Not really an issue on a budget GMT watch in my opinion. Ideally I'd prefer a bi-directional 24 click bezel, but I would never expect it on a ~$100 watch
I wish the there's a Swiss microbrand that's just like Wenger & Citizen in terms of price, quality, part of the Swatch Group, ETA gearbox, 200m dive watches, threaded chronograph buttons, hardlex crystal.
@@MyAffordableWatchCollection It warns you that the crown is not seated fully. I gave my daughter a dive watch and during a Skype call I noticed the crown was out. Not good.
It seems by the comments that some folks do like that pop of red color on the ring, so who can say what's right in that regard? Thanks for watching Chris!

Funny Pagani used to be HUGELY hyped as some of the best value for money watches ... now they are often lambasted. Reality is probably somewhere in between. They are still often (but not always) spec monsters for the price. But you have to consider the price and not have unrealistic expectations for them. Also (in my opinion) always buy during a sale. Also with price increases with Pagani you have to be more careful. The price increase is another reason I think expectations have increased - that is on Pagani and may impact their sales - it has for me (the value for money is not as great with a price increase and I am therefore more picky on finishing and specs/ movement as a result).
The watches of this brand cost higher and higher past one year. I'd prefer to save some extra bucks and get some citizen or seiko than a PD watch that none would want to buy second hand at future if I don't wear it anymore.
Resale value true ... but Seiko have had significant price increases too plus they also have issues; mineral Crystal, pressed clasps and often misalignment / QC issues. Just something to consider. I'd rather go San Martin or micro-brand, or even Orient than Seiko right now - in opinion better value for money (and I own 4 Seikos) if perhaps lesser resale value .. but (and I know everyone is different) I buy watches to wear and enjoy not for resale value (even higher end watches - i.e. I prefer Tudor Black Bays to Rolex Submariners).
@@karlsenula9495 Same goes for me, the joy of wearing watches is number one factor, paired with the quality of course, but I also try to obtain something that could be sold at some point. (By no means to profit but to cover some of its value - selling watches is hardly a good investment). Having the habit of owning too many watches leads you to the point of selling some I you don't wear them too much, to move to the next one. At least this is how it has worked for me ;) I agree for Orient, best value for money. The microbrand territory is another story. Most of them are pricey. I think one should buy microbrand watches later at his watch journey, when he has a good knowledge of what suits his needs or not.
@@Tzazilas ... all good points ... always great to engage in a conversation with a fellow watch enthusiast. Regarding the micro-brands always good (as with all things) to do your research. Brands I'm thinking of include; Zelos, Helm, Stratton, Dan Henry, RZE, Boldr ... to a lesser extent (because they are part of Seiko) Alba, Lorus ... that kind of Micro-brands (not sure if Christopher Ward counts as a micro-brand? But another great brand).
Pagani Design have a tendency to ruin the watch designs with randomly designed date windows. Compared to the red crown tube this is the bigger negative for me as the watch dial looks completely unbalanced with it.

Bought and arrived today.. What a beautiful watch. Pagani design will be a landmark brand very soon.. Well done!!
Clear, comprehensive and straightforward review. No endless "unboxing" and timewasting nonsense. Thank you.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it 😊
Hola
Me gustaria saber las medidas del bisel puesto que me planteo poner uno cerámico ...el de sluminio se me ha rayado gracias

Would it be possible to remove that red ring? Is it painted on or a whole separate ring?
I believe it is a separate ring, but it might be a bit hard to take it off without damaging the crown.
Thanks for watching!
Muy buen video.
Gracias

Available on jubilee bracelet ?
Glycine Combat Sub GL1004 chrono diver, please?
See if the chrono hour hand ticks after 30 minutes or 1 hour (30 minutes double)
I'll have to see if I can get my hands on one of those for review...
I have a couple of PDs and for the money they are awesome pieces, I like the Batman 👌👌
The crown ring doesn’t bother me 😀 colourblind 😂😂
Great review as always 🤩
Sometimes in life it helps to be colorblind 😂😂
Thanks for watching Heath!
"Vostok komandrishke" vs "Pagani design " whose movement is more reliable ?

Great review thanks a lot, I think it will be my next purchase. can you please add link to the black rubber that we saw in the video? תודה :-)

Yes. 90 click bezel? I don't understand it, but it is not a deal breaker.

The red on the crown performs a function. If you feel it is just decorative, I can see why it bothers you. I would prefer red in all cases. 😁
That's interesting. What function does it serve?
@@MyAffordableWatchCollection It warns you that the crown is not seated fully. I gave my daughter a dive watch and during a Skype call I noticed the crown was out. Not good.
@@donnyboon2896 ... if the red disappears when screwed in ...
Personally I prefer the bb1958 homage. This is still an excellent offer other than the silly red ring, what were they thinking…

The red ring on the crown worked well with the red bezel Tudor homage they put out a little while back.
Please use a/r coating.😁🙏

Right?

That's a good point. They don't hold their value AT ALL. Something to keep in mind.
