What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer Lethbridge Gold

Owners widely praise the Farer Lethbridge Gold's attractive appearance and finishing, with one owner calling its PVD gold finish the best they've seen. The watch runs at +4 seconds per day. Some owners note the gold PVD coating can scratch easily and fades slightly on edges, and the original strap tarnished quickly, leading some to seek strap alternatives like blue or gray leather, or NATO/sailcloth. One owner mentions its manual-wind movement and that it is not real gold, which is acceptable given the price. Overall, owners rate the Farer Lethbridge Gold highly for its striking aesthetics and good value, despite minor concerns about the strap and PVD durability.

From video reviewers

The 24-time-zone display is a key strength. No consensus on weaknesses.

Pagani Design PD-1708

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1708's solid build and surprisingly high-quality finishing for its price point, with one owner noting a comfortable 38mm case and a well-made tapered mesh bracelet featuring a signed safety clasp. However, the lume is described as a bit weak, though evenly applied. Accuracy with the VK64 movement averaged around +6.5 seconds per month over 14 months. On balance, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1708 highly for its value and bracelet quality at its price.

From video reviewers

The Pagani Design PD-1708 features a reliable and accurate Japanese VK64 movement. A notable weakness is the lume brightness, which could be improved, particularly in low-light conditions. Reviewers disagree on the bezel diameter, with some users potentially finding it small for the 46mm case length, while others may not have an issue with it.
