What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro for its scratch-resistant coating, thin and compact 38.5mm case, and versatile dial options. The layered finishing with polished chamfers and comfortable bracelet are frequently highlighted as strong points, contributing to its wearability. One owner notes good timekeeping, while a reviewer states the Miyota 9015 movement is adjusted to +/-10 seconds per day. A potential drawback mentioned is the date numeral appearing in half shadow due to anti-magnetic shielding, and one owner considers the bracelet clasp dated. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro highly for its durable construction and thoughtful design at its price point.

A Blog to Watch

Pagani Design PD-1764

The Pagani Design PD-1764's dial closely resembles an original Rolex Oyster Perpetual, making it almost indistinguishable from the real thing. The watch features smooth and precise bezel action. The case finishing is very well done, with a nice satin finish that's not too shiny and not too dull. The watch's price point is relatively high compared to other similar homages on the market. The lume is not very bright, which might be a drawback for those who want a easy to read in low-light conditions.
