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-1796

The Pagani Design PD-1796 features an open-heart design, not a tourbillon as initially marketed, and includes a noticeable blue anti-reflective coating. Owners are divided on its aesthetic, with some appreciating its unique dial layout and manual/automatic movement, while others find the design unappealing and criticize the lack of AR coating for legibility issues. On balance, the consensus is that owners find the Pagani Design PD-1796 polarizing due to its misrepresented complication and mixed reception on its dial design and AR coating.

Spinnaker Dumas Automatic

Owners widely praise the Spinnaker Dumas Automatic for its attractive textured blue dial, applied indices, and well-finished case, noting its comfortable wearability due to a short lug-to-lug distance. Some owners flag the use of mineral crystal instead of sapphire and a bracelet with a learning curve and loose keeper. Overall, owners rate the Spinnaker Dumas Automatic highly for its aesthetics and case finishing at its price point.
