When Rolex released the Sprite, I was genuinely taken aback. Having the crown on the left-hand side felt oddly unfamiliar, yet it immediately caught my attention. I quickly navigated to the website to check the price, and to my surprise, it was quite reasonable. Then, I stumbled upon an article on Hodinkee detailing the specifications and the GMT movement, which further intrigued me. As I continued my search, an Amazon post popped up showcasing the Pagani Design Sprite version of the Rolex. Despite the controversy surrounding it, the price point, around $90-$80 at the time, seemed like a steal. I saw it as a chance to own something unique with a left-handed crown, so I seized the opportunity. It marked my first venture into the world of watches, and the Sprite has been nothing short of excellent. It keeps time impeccably and resonates with the essence of a Rolex, albeit not the real deal. Plus, the green hue, my favorite color, adds to its appeal. As I glance at my wrist today, adorned with the Sprite, it not only tells time but also carries a sense of satisfaction and a touch of luxury.

Pagani Design???!! Sorry but a very misleading name. I was not familiar with them until being involved here. It doesnt look to me that they 'design' anything! They seem to make 'Copies' of everything. I see why some people purchase them (price) but myself I am not a homage (copy) guy.. No offense please this is JMO.. Enjoy the hobby

The Hommage discussion is a never ending story...

Enjoy the watch! Maybe one day you will get the real deal.

Hey, I totally get where you’re coming from! Yeah, Pagani Design’s name might be a bit misleading considering their approach. It’s true, they do seem to lean heavily on creating replicas rather than original designs. And hey, I respect your stance on homage watches – it’s all about personal preference in this hobby, right? No offense taken at all, just sharing our thoughts! At the end of the day, as long as we’re enjoying the hobby, that’s what matters most. Cheers! 🤝

Great watch. Don’t listen to the passive aggressive anti-homage people. Enjoy what you like. Being open to all kinds of watches reflects an open mind.
