True. The design is predecided. It’s really just a matter of fit and finish.

These are the more ‘clomage’ ones they do, though usually they pull in older versions of the ‘real’ design when homaging. I prefer the ones which are closer to being remix homages (originals therefore arguably) or the other version they do of the Newman style GMT.

Is the bezel font the same on this as the original?

It’s nearly indistinguishable from pictures

Hey JamieMadeira. I prefer original designs, after that an interpretation of designs rather than a direct homage. Seems too easy to have someone else do all the design work. The bezel appears to be a direct copy as well but I’m not sure what the font used was.

If it’s direct, then it’s the same. My PDs are all bigger riffs on the Omega they homage, which is why I quite like them. Like… they are as different from the ‘original’ as for example a Rolex Yachtmaster is from an Omega Seamaster. I think it’s why I don’t really go for Pagani’s Rolex homages — they change less.
