What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

anOrdain Model 2

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 for its exquisite, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, often described as liquid-like, and its simple, rugged 36mm steel case. The smooth winding action of the Sellita SW-210 movement is also a frequently cited positive. Some reviewers note the 36mm case wears larger than expected, while others find it perfect for everyday wear and elegant. Criticisms include 5atm water resistance, glare from the sapphire crystal, and the lack of a running seconds hand. One owner expressed a strong desire to reacquire their Model 2 after selling it. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its stunning enamel dial and wearability at the price point.

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.
