Review-Will KronoKitty approve of this one?
This review is of a watch I've had for a couple months now. The Pagani Design GMT model PD1758.
Case thickness -12.5mm
Band width-20mm
Dial crystal and cyclops-sapphire
Water resistance -100m
Clasp-milled folding with safety latch or Nato strap
Case-16L stainless steel
Movement- automatic NH34
Crown-screwdown
Out of the box I was immediately drawn to the aluminum bezel insert. A beautiful maroon color. Bezel was smooth and grippy with little back play and was aligned perfectly. The writing could have been larger as it's a bit hard to read. The dial is pretty but not outstanding and the blue loom was initially very bright and beautiful and spread evenly but could have lasted a little longer, but Pagani seems to be improving. Their loom has always been lacking but I see improvement. Indices are round with a gold outline with a triangle at 12 and bars at 6 and 9 with a sapphire cyclops and date window at 3. The gold and white Mercedes hands look really pretty as does the lollipop second hand, also white and gold. The jubilee bracelet is ok. It's serviceable but could be better and is tapered to the clasp and is to skinny for my taste. The Rolex style clasp is ok but I'd love to see them do something different as this is they're usual flavor. Out of the box on the timegrapher it was plus 13 seconds which isn't bad but with a little effort on my part is now plus 7 a day. Crown is grippy and works great.Overall I'm very happy with this offering from Pagani Design minus a few minor moans and groans. For the price your paying what you get is astounding. Also after a thorough exam Krono-Kitty also has fully approved, and that's what really matters lol 😂.😸

Yes
No
- Sapphire glass
- Beautiful gold and white and maroon colors
- Accurate and dependable movement
- Clasp is a little janky and band tapers to a very thin 14mm
- Black dial could be better
- Time for Pagani to address the band and clasp issues
I've been collecting for only a short time. I'm 50 but didn't realize just how much I loved watches until I bought my first decent one! An Invicta diver. After that there was no looking back! Now I ha...
