Well, have they finally done it? Have they released a decent watch that isn;t a 1:1 copy of somethign else? Yes, I think they have. Perhaps a combination of a few different watches, but that's OK by me. Cheers, Jody
I think it's original enough. If it were a U.S. or Euro microbrand, we'd give it a pass when they tell us that "our watch is inspired by the classic chronographs of the past that we love so much." I think it looks nice, and I like that tight lug-to-lug.
So stupid how white people get the pass for everything
Pagani isn't a micro brand. Pagani Design (The name isn't even original) watches are made in a Chinese mega factory to sell to customers who don't know about Chinese product cloning or don't care. This may be more 'original' like you say, but it still comes from a company that operates off the hard work of others in Europe and the U.S.
@@Uniongamersas you're typing from your iPhone lol...
@@Uniongamers they're made in the same contract factories producing microbrands watches
I'm still waiting for the Pagani Eriboss to come out
10:59 Absolutely yes. It’s clearly not a copy, for one. And for two, let’s face it, we’re really talking about variations on a theme when we’re talking about design on almost any watch. There are maybe 10% of watches out there, maybe less, that are a truly original ground-up design.
Good point. Same could be said with almost every product in existence too
I agree, most people don't realize that the big brands steal the looks from other brands all the time .
This is finally the Bulova Lunar Pilot downsize we wanted😂❤
This Pagani is dangerous. It's actually pretty nice, and it's not really a copy so I kind of want one
Why are they dangerous? I assume cheap quality and sharp corners that can cut your wrist
@mte1611 it's dangerous because it's the first Pagani that I am considering buying. It's great value for money and looks fantastic. I imagine I won't be the only one tempted to buy their first Pagani
@@mte1611
No kidding, I own one. Really great watch, but I had to file off a sharp edge from a rivet in the bracelet. You're best off avoiding their steel bracelets.
Agreed. Been tempted by pagani many times but I’m not totally sold on design copies. This is something I really like and could buy and wear with none of the mixed feelings about wearing an homage piece.
@@BennyLlama I'm don't getting it, what's the danger? The price compared to a Casio?
Good on Seestern making the change - makes me think well of them for doing so.
I think they’ve given us the Bulova Lunar Pilot, in the case size we wanted. Different colours, yes, but her similar case, pushers, bracelet. I like it.
Came here to say this.
I can’t be the only one who sees this and thinks that this is what the current quartz version of the bulova lunar pilot should be? It’s not far off, just a slight case re-shape, change of pushers, full black dial and you’re pretty much there!
OK...it's a mixture of Zodiac's case design with Tissot's dial and hands with the chrono pushers being their own contribution, their design if you will. But I like it, it looks way better on a nice strap.
That explanation by Seestern is hilarious. "We called it original because it was originally produced by us." Well in that case, those Folexes are also originals.
The Japanese used to have massive translation issues a few decades ago, the Chinese are just going through the same process I guess...Chinglish
@@chrispekel5709 was it a translation error or a flimsy excuse?
@@brianmccord7387 it would be a translation issue. I've tried to learn Vietnamese and my Vietnamese girlfriend laughs hysterically at some of the stuff I write. I have no idea why these Chinese companies don't pay someone with knowledge to check over their products, they want to save every single cent they can
@@brianmccord7387 Folexes hahahah
That's very cool Jody. So many watches in various categories now that it's hard to design something that doesn't have overtones of others. Great effort Pagani!!
Pagani is very popular in Indonesia. People really like Pagani homages, it's not without reason that in Indonesia the average salary per person is 300 US dollars for one month, and in some cities it is sometimes less than that. For developing countries like Indonesia, Pagani Design really helps make people feel what it's like to wear a watch, of course at an affordable price. cheap for people in America does not mean cheap for the average person in Indonesia, because our currency is weak. At least homage watches are the answer to the feeling of wearing and owning a watch.
The first Pagani Design I actually like. It would look really good on a rally style strap.
This was my first thought ! Black rally strap with white stitching would look perfect
This watch is a stap monster
Immediately thought about the Zodiac when I saw it cause I really wanted to get that one at some point but the Tissot one looks waaay more similar dial-wise but the case is definitely more Zodiac like. Honestly it looks great, lovely looking mix of the two :) And that price is just cherry on top.
Congratulations to them for trying something different as the dimensions and dial are nice so thanks for sharing Jody.
Pagani giving half links was not on my bingo card for 2024. Let’s hope more brands do it especially those with integrated bracelets
I was already in the process of ordering it before the end of the video… I have purchased several from the brand in the past, and one has even made it into my permanent collection. This may be the second! Thanks, Jody!
Pagani is starting to use the edit button with the usual copy and paste one. Thank you Jody for the video 👍🏽
I'm really liking it but I wish they had an option for a blank dial like steel dive does or maybe just their shield logo.
Hey Jody. Thanks for reviewing this. Looks gorgeous. Will be picking this one up. 🙂🙏
It reminds me of the Omega Cushion Case chronographs of the 70's somewhat. Agree with your choice of colour, black on white always more readable than the darker dials. Nice watch for the money. Great video as always Jody, keep them coming.
I'm getting Lunar Pilot vibes... at a reasonable price!
The blue looks killer. Might have to try one out at the next big sale
You could play that game at the end with almost every single watch released nowadays. And you’d find lookalikes - across every price point and brand.
Yes, so true. It's just that we ('watch enthusiasts') tend to give the bigger brands a pass and today, look at the Chinese brands with negativity.
Cool design. I'd actually buy this one, It looks just like a C-Shape case Heuer Chronograph from the 70's. So to me it's more of an homage than an original.
Wow! Great find. Assuming they all look as good as yours, tremendous value.
Pagani Design's new chronograph resembles the vintage Bulova Lunar Pilot, Heuer Carrera, and many others with a tonneau case design. In 2021, a micro brand, Soldat, released Promessa, similar to this PD1782. At least, this PD chronograph is not a 1:1 copy but a true sense of homage inspired by the 1970s chronographs. I ordered one with a rally strap.
To my eye the case shape and chronograph chapter ring is reminiscent of an Omega chronograph 176.007 from the 1970s. However the chronograph pushers on the Pagani are more like a Bulova. Looks good though and worth considering at the right price.
Hi Jody. Just want to say your watch reviews are something that I look forward to during the weekends. Thank you.
Jody, I'm encouraged by the semi originality. If/when they launch into more original styles i will definitely key into them much more ... They are fun. Great find and review.
The face design is nicely executed and balanced 👍
Well done Jody. Your continued focus on genuinely affordable, decent, watches is to be applauded. I do enjoy other reviewers but too often do they concentrate on less than affordable brands.
That's about 98% of what I want and don't underestimate the 24 hour dial! After a week or two without the chance of seeing daylight you might need to know if it's midnight or noon and if you have to resync your rtty encryption system (oops am I allowed to talk about that some 30 years later?
)
I surely do enjoy your work. Thank you.
I’m waiting for mine to arrive, ordered the blue dial with the leather strap. Took a punt as there were no reviews and I’m reassured by your comments!
Perfect buy in November during the 11.11 Sale. I really like it but I’m off chronos for a while. Just not making the cut on the wrist time hierarchy. LOL. Great job Jody. Merci!
I just found my next pagani. That thing looks great. I have the daytona, and the speedy look like. The Pagani speedy is the best watch they made so far, but this one looks to be a good contender.
Just ordered in the sale for £58, largely on the back of your review. My 1st pagani and can't wait to try it out with a couple of hybrid and nato straps.
Great review as always...
Cute little watch for sure. Thanks for the review.
At first glance, It reminded me to the blue 43mm. lunar pilot
Very nice, I saw Bulova also has a few of these Panda Chrono - case models (The 98K112 Lunar Pilot )
Great value! I like the reverse panda on leather. Cheers, Jody!
What a bargain, didn't know I had a "chrono beater" slot in my watchbox, I do now😂
Absolutely love this watch
Decent, nice touch having half links
I love the combination of turtle shaped case with modern looking pushers. It's neo-vintage design makes it original though the dial is very similar to the Tissot that Jody mentioned. If it was offered in other colors or had some kind of textured dial, I would be tempted to pull the trigger on this one.
I... I like it! But the 24 hour subdial shouldn't have an orange hand. The orange accents should be used to differentiate the chronograph functions from the timekeeping functions.
ive watched all your vids jody as you are infectious love your vids mate and all the best from the u.k
That’s actually really nice.
All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧
Nice!!! I've actually been wearing my PD-1701 all week. I first saw that on JOMW too.
I've been pondering one of the pagani RM lookalikes because I don't have anything like it in my collection, but haven't seen many reviews from my trusted channels (probably because they have taste)
I've just ordered one of these! I think it's a homage to the Tissot 1973 heritage chronograph.
Nice find! I love Pagani... but I'd call this one a near homage to the 1970s Certina DS-2 Chronolympic. As I don't have $2K-$4K for the Certina, this looks like a great alternative!
Hmmm… pushers are different, case size is definitely different, even dial arrangement and lack of date window is different… let’s face it, there’s only so much one can try and be original when it comes to chronographs and this is a pretty good effort.
Is any watch an original design? All watches take design cues from others that have gone before. This is probably the best Pagani so far. It's definitely on my list.
I like it a lot. Great job PD
The dial screams TAG Heuer Carrera glassbox, what with the running seconds being a stealthy subdial (it's the panda version of the Skipper)and the tachymeter bezel being inside the crystal. It's almost like the Skipper and the Tissot you showed had a baby.
If you ever want to time anything, the chronograph subregister is quite unusable, but it is indeed a good looking watch !
Great video!! Just curious where you buy those great looking t-shirts.
Just pushed the purchase button on this. It's the Luna Pilot mashed up with some other watches. Pagani are making a few more semi original designs at the moment. If they can fix the lume and qc issues and add more original pieces. They could become a viable microbrand.
Very nice! Reminds me a bit of a vintage Heuer Autavia chronograph from the 70s 🏎️🏁 I want one!
Yep Jody, wasn't expecting really good lume, and I wasn't disappointed 😅
Personally I find chronos a tad busy on the face but this one gets it just right! Very nice watch!
I love the PD1701. Yes, it's a speedy clone, but it's the most accurate watch I have. It even beats my Bulova Lunar Pilot.
Now wait a minute....It beats the Bulova in size, for sure, but the Bulova sweep and the Bulova heritage are something else.
@@P_EziIt’s more accurate than my Lunar Pilot, as hard as that is to believe. That mecha-quartz movement is something else.
As far as everything else goes, the lunar pilot beats it hands down.
But to outperform the Lunar Pilot is saying something.
@@williamthomas6106 That's good to hear. I'm a big fan of old Bulova tuning forks, and I love the idea of the smooth sweep precisionist /UHF/262khz movements as it is at least reminiscent of the tuning fork sweep and accuracy. I just wish the LP had a smooth full time seconds hand and a bit smaller case.
I do like the looks of this Pagani...
Thanks for the video. Very nice looking chrono and not a full blown homage. PD does a great job with chrono homages (and I own enough of them). I own the beautiful Merkur Pierre Paulin panda handwind with clear back so I don't think I'll get this one.
For me, the case shape and pushers (excepting the left hand crown) looks most similar to the vintage Autavia re-issue from mid to late 2000’s. Reference CY2111.
And that’s no bad thing, looks great especially at that price.
I'd like to add the Orient Neo 70 as a watch that looks a lot like this Pagani.
It has a kind of Bulova Lunar Pilot vibe to it. More reason for them to release an even smaller version.
Try as I may, I simply cannot bring myself to like any case that reminds me of the Seiko Turtle. I irrationally hate it. That said, it's a beautiful dial and I'm glad Pagani are venturing out past their safe zone. 😎
I noticed said new watch yesterday and ordered one immediately! I chose the black dial with brown strap.
looks nice, got blue on the way
Very nice Bulova Lunar Pilot Homage watch
I like it! Very vintage retro looking.
I think it's a great design and it's certainly as original as most other designs can claim to be. Excited to see more from them! Plus, at $75 for a double dome sapphire, it's a lot more than you get with most watches.
It makes me think of a Bulova lunar pilot in 39.
But quite nice.
It looks great tbf
I think that looks great, it caught my eye a little while ago but kind of forgot about it. Looks like I'm getting a third Pagani Design Chrono (the vintage patek with a salmon and brown dial, and the white and red moonswatch inspired one)
I think this is definitely "close enough" to just call it "vintage inspired". Very nice! Thanks for another great video Jody.
This is lovely! Surprisingly no comparison to bulova lunar pilot? One of my few regrets is my red and white pagani 1701 moon watch, I thought it'd be playful, but it just doesn't tickle me, looks cheesy. The pushers are clunky, the sapphire just isn't that nice. This looks like a better option.
I can see the similarity especially the chrono pushers
@@saevans63 Indeed. It looks so neat and wearable too. The bulova is huge, a real monster. I don't think I'd ever wear it, even though I love the idea of 262khz from a horology perspective.
@@luke2642 I have the Bulova. It is a large watch but it does wear well on my wrist.
It's a looker for sure. Giving me Tag / Omega vibe, but hardly a bad thing.
Great looking watch. Original enough for me. I bought two, one for me and one for my bro. Dig the retro style.
else Better than a Seiko at a fraction of the price. Amazing VFM. Definitely original in my opinion, especially as all watches have some sort of resemblance to something else
I got mine for an equivalent of $45, wore it straight for a week, I used to cycle through my collection every day, but this one is really impressive, considering the features you get for its price, I've read that some buyers even got this exact model for around $35.
from where did you get it
Its listed for around 100 USD currently. How’d you fine that deal?
There's also some similarity to the Bulova Lunar Pilot. But yeah they can get away with saying that it's sort of original I guess
I am liking much of what Pagani have been doing lately. For the price point, they are pretty good. Certainly a good beginner watch for juniors or for those who don't have or want to drop a lot of cash on this (crazy) hobby of ours.
ready for monday man?🥲
@@caelan6135 Go BIRDS!
Agreed. This is really nice, especially on the leather that I added. Cheers!
Not an homage guy so never really consider a Pagani but for 75 bucks this thing looks gorgeous.
The second you unboxed it, I immediately thought of the of the Tissot Heritage 1973
Nice piece! At first glance the first watch that came to mind was the Straton Comp Driver in same color. Nice value but I’ll take the Straton.
I think it has heavy hints my Bulova Lunar Pilot, less the size of course….. Another great video, Thank You
I really like this on the leather band
This is a gorgeous watch that I think takes some design cues from the Zenith - el Primero line of watches
The rocket on the back is awesome! I know they might have been serious, but it adds an element of fun and leans invertedly into the silliness of homage watches and watches in general. Even funnier is the fact it's the Soviet rocket that never flew and blew up on launch
Not a bad looking watch & quite decently specced for the price. The Tissot was the first watch that popped in my mind as a comparison / design inspiration.
Looks pretty good
Bulova Lunar Pilot. As soon as you opened the box.
Definite Bulova Lunar Pilot Mini vibes, right down to the chrono pushers.
This is pretty cool. Chronos with turtley-cushion cases are not too common, are they? My Citizen CA7040 has similar dimensions and feel and I can imagine this one wears great too.
Your comparisons look more alike than the pagani.
Looks good
Great watch and a great review. Push pins or screw pins on the bracelet?
Push pins.
Apart from the pushers it’s a near exact copy of a Bulova Lunar Pilot. I am wondering if they will ever make anything original.
I mean fair play to Seestern right there! For one, that's an excellent way to handle it. Not only did they change their play, but also explained what their reasoning behind "original" was in the first place. Also, now that that's done when you actually look at the watch it ISN'T totally 1:1 with the Nomos. I mean it's darn close to a copy, but they DO have slight differences: the numerals on the small seconds subdial, the lumed hands, the boxes on the minute track, and the bolder font on the numerals.
Looks great
