Just got this on the Milanese bracelet and I am impressed. It looks pretty close to the original except it is better in two ways: 1) it does not have that fugly helium value wart and 2) it is £7000 cheaper. For the money it cost, it is a great value watch.
These watches are great. And if you happen to get one that's running to fast or to slow it is very easy to adjust. You can not beat the price or the quality, very well made. I still don't understand how they are able to sell them so cheap!
I have to admit pagani have made leaps since the mk1 versions , i wear steinhart ovm,s theyre the tough all rounders , but pagani are getting better at what they put out now , i can imagine in a few short years theyres no reason they cant be ahead of the game ,they listened to customers and made improvements where it mattered , this sits on the wrist better than a steinhart ,
My collection is now 19 watches deep. This one is my favorite of them all, and that means I like it better than some of my pieces that are far more expensive. But you said "BGW9." That made me start running around the interwebs looking for a spec sheet that defined the lume. I could not find anything that gave any info on the lume either way. Can you confirm that this watch has "BGW9?" If that is so, hell, it may make me love my favorite watch even more!
Hi Kennedy! Actually several sellers of this watch on Aliexpress list the lume as "KG Swiss BGW9 super luminous powder" so that's what I mentioned. Can I actually verify this claim? Probably not without taking the watch apart and sending it to a lab. I guess we'll just have to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. :) Nice work on your growing collection!
@@QualityTimeChannel Oh, you misread me my friend. I wasn't asking you to analyze it and put your name on the findings. I was really just asking for exactly what you just gave me...some place where a spec sheet mentioned the lume. Like you, I have no reason to doubt it beyond that. So...cool! Now I love my favorite watch even more!
Great video Lester, I got mine a couple of days ago. I opted for the mesh bracelet. Quite impressed with it to be honest. Keep at it man, a word of advice if I may, give your lens a good clean with a new microfibre cloth. Seems to be a lot of glare coming from reflections. Subscribed too :)
Thanks for the feedback, Chris! Yes, I tend to forget about smudges on my admittedly low-rent video setup. Will look for that next time. :D Thanks a lot for the sub!
Looks like I’m atleast about a year behind this watch which I just purchased today for fathers day from my wife! She didn’t know which PD I wanted so she said go ahead and order it lol so I’m supposed to get it Monday!
Love this piece. Lucky for you that you didn't buy this same piece 9 months ago or so or you really would not have liked the look of the bracelet. Specifically where the first end link transitions into the rest of the bracelet. In the previous version the bracelet dropped off of the male end link, exposing the rather unsightly, and unfinished inside of the link. If you've watched any older reviews most all of them identify this issue. It seems as though they have fixed the problem in the most recent releases. As a result I'm still hesitant to order this model. As much as I'd love to own it, I'm afraid that whomever I purchase from may still be in possession of an older version and I'll have to deal with that nightmare. That being said I'd still rather take my chances with that, rather than deal with the wait time of ordering direct from China. Good job
Hi Tara! Yes, I guess we got lucky and got one of the later models. However, if I were to order one today, I would actually go for the mesh bracelet, which is more faithful to the 007 watch it is ... homaging. Homaging? Let's go with homaging! This one took a lot longer than other watches I've ordered from China. I suppose it was probably because of the number of sales during their Single's Day event each year. In any case, this is a pretty nice piece for the cash. Thanks for stopping by!
Yes but you can only swim and shower with a hundred meter waterproof watch , having said that iv got the new version (diving Aside) its a good solid watch i have the black rubber strap version (hate metal straps) its stainless steel ,has a real saphire crystal /put a drop of water on the crystal it should stay beaded on the glass , any other glass type the water runs off into drips ! Loose bezel housings can be fixed with chain lube aplied (sprayed underneath the bezel housing between the strap lugs into the underneath of the bezel) stiffens any loose bezel for a long time ,like years ! Then wash the outer with mild shampoo and warm water , yes the watch will survive , iv done this with old seikos , iv used this pagani in the shower ,i always wash a new watch , these pagani watches are a no brainer if you camp out or do any outdoor persuits , £109 is a great excuse not to trash your more expensive watches and automatic to , your getting a hell of a lot for a hell of a little , the seiko nh35 movement service is ten years interval from new , for £109 you can put 50p a week away and buy another in that time ,
I have one with the mesh bracelet and nato strap. With Seiko movement it's great time piece! Excellent review!

Definitely a good value!
It looks much better and screen correct on the mesh bracelet
Good review bro, I've got one of these, and it is proper solid, I have no complaints, and I have had a lot of compliments while wearing it.

It’s probably due to a very efficient and streamlined production facility. Definitely great for us watch enthusiasts!

Nice looking watch Pagani Design do some interesting "Homages"
Haha yes it seems to be their niche for sure. But aside from the homage factor, you certainly get a lot of watch for the money.

Hi. Great Video. I just bought this Model.
Can change the clasp with micro adjust holes?
Reliable and good watch for the money??
Can somebody let me know how thick is the metal strap?
Still alive?
Just bought one and it's running 35 minutes a day straight out of the box, a total waste of money.
They ripped off the design, wonder why they gave it a date window?
They probably didn't want to "waste" the date complication on the movement. :)
They did rip off the design! And I’m glad they did!!!!
They bought bulk pallets of seiko NH35 movements , why not use the date facility ?
