    Had the Pagani black dial. Nice watch actually, but the printing on the sub dials was so faint(black on silver) that it was illegible. Lume was also poor. Watch dives version seems like an awesome deal!

    Steve I’ve got a few of the Pagani chronograph models in varying colours of course!🤣 For the money re Pagani, you cannot go wrong! I appreciate the Watchdives is a step up, to a point, & I think the subdials are definitely better aesthetically. I do currently have one in my basket but don’t think I’ll get it, as I believe the Pagani is just fantastic value! Good comparison mate.👍🏼

    This Pagani was one of the first watches I bought about 4 years ago but it was a bit boring after a whilw. I sold it and bought the PD1664 rose gold black dial on a rubber strap as soon as it was available. And it's absolutely perfect. Looks like milion dollars:)

    The Watch Dives version definitely looks better. I’m curious, how would you say the watch dives version compares to the Rolex Daytona? as far as finishing and quality? Obviously the Rolex has the better movement and the better history and heritage. how far apart are they as far as the finishing aspect?

      I won't pretend like I have handled a daytona before...but it's the rule of dimishing returns here.
      these watches are probably 80% as nice as the rolex on the outside, for a small fraction of the price of the rolex. yeah, it'll be better in every way...but will you appreciate those differences?
      I get the same way about pagani vs San martin...it's just a lot more feasible to "jump up" when you are talking 50$ vs $300 instead of $50 vs $15,000

    Just found your channel and happy I did so. As a former watch enthusiast I'm having to start over from a lower price point. Thank you so much for the comparison between the 2. I have to disagree with you I think overall I would have gone with the Pagani. I think the price and the date is what sold me. I have a $500 citizen techometer and it shakes as bad as the Pagani. If I could ask when you did the comparison between the 2 if you could put the movement on there as well. Thanks!

    • @EscapeWheel

      Did you unscrew them before pushing? Seems like common sense to me but I don't know your watch knowledge level.
      If it still didn't work, contact the store and get a replacement.

    On Bezels they should use thinner fonts and use a slightly off white paint. White paint looks cheap.

    • @EscapeWheel
      @EscapeWheel  Месяц назад +2

      I'm ok with the "bold" font, but I agree. It's something I mentioned to them. If they do a V2 I'd suggest using a metallic silver paint in the bezel instead of white/lumed...no body needs a lumed tachymeter scale....especially since the Chrono seconds hand isn't lumed....lol

    I would choose the Pagani any day. Why? Because the dial is hard to read on both due to the silver subdial hands and white dial, so I will go with the cheaper one 😂

    Watchdives version looks too off IMO. Bold font on the bezel + incredibly busy 9 o'clock subdial. Understand the point about usability, but I prefer aesthetics personally
    I do prefer their company logo and the lack of a date window though

    The lumed bezel is just a gimmick as the chrono hand is not lumed so can't be used in the dark anyway.
    It's overpriced compared to the Pagani.

    • @EscapeWheel
      @EscapeWheel  Месяц назад +1

      those watches are on another level. they are really nice. Lume and crystal are about the same, I feel like the case finishing is about the same as well, same with the dial. big difference is again the bracelet...the sugess bracelet is as much of a step up from the WD as the WD is from the pagani. it also has a razor thin rehaut which looks incredible, and then throw in the movement differences.
      if you are after the be-all-end-all Daytona, I wouldn't settle for these...but these are great for a quick grab n go daily piece.
