What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Pagani Design PD-1671 V2

Owners widely report sharp case edges on the Pagani Design PD-1671 V2, with some noting burrs that fray straps and a bezel that can be sloppy or rough. The embossed dial is described as appearing cheap up close, and the sapphire crystal lacks anti-reflective coating. One owner found their bezel surprisingly nice, and another praised the bracelet quality for the price. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner regulating their movement to +1 second per day after modifications. On balance, owners find the Pagani Design PD-1671 V2 to be a watch that requires modification to reach its potential, with sharp edges and dial finishing being common criticisms.

From video reviewers

The Pagani Design PD-1671 V2's bezel action is smooth and has a satisfying click. Its design is improved and nicer than the standard models, but some buyers may be concerned about early dimension discrepancies. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one suggesting it may not be worth nearly double the price of standard models.

Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé

Owners widely appreciate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé for its historical representation and the use of two lume colors. The blended branding is considered tasteful by some, though one owner expressed indecision about the logo and crown position. The 37mm bronze case is designed to develop a patina, as are the bronze hands, complementing the gradient matte black dial with faux-patina lume. The Miyota 82S5 automatic movement, however, is noted by owners to be noisy and rattly, with one owner reporting +7 seconds per day accuracy and a 40-hour power reserve. Overall, owners rate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé positively for its aesthetic appeal and historical narrative, despite the noisy movement.

From video reviewers

The bronze case developing a patina is a key aesthetic feature. Reviewers found the value proposition to be good at $428 USD.
