Pagani Design PD-3306

Pagani Design PD-3306 owners report a change in water resistance rating from 100m to 30m, with some suggesting a potential shift in case material from stainless steel to chrome-plated alloy and the movement from Japanese quartz to a Chinese Sunon PE903. One owner found the watch to be good value for money at 169 reais, noting it arrived with a "sapphire" sticker despite being advertised with Hardlex crystal. On balance, owners note value for money but flag significant specification changes regarding water resistance and materials.
