My First Pagani QC Issue! - Pagani Design PD-1671 Black Bay Homage Unboxing

It's finally here but it has an issue! This is the first time I've experienced the unfortunate QC issues people talk about from Pagani design. A quick fix but not ideal in the slightest. The rest of the watch however...impressive!

    There's a good reason why some reviewers avoid Pagani at this point - Merkur, Cronos and San Martin are usually without any QC issues, Steeldive/Addiesdive may have questionable bracelets, but with Pagani you get more often than not dodgy bezels, frequently too tight or too loose clasps, crowns which don't like to engage with the threat and sometimes even misaligned markers.

    You recently posted a video of the new Explorer II homage saying it has the best bracelet yet, in my opinion this one is. It's the same bracelet, yet the end links aren't one solid piece, they are female end links that connect directly to a link, allowing the bracelet to drop IMMEDIATELY after the lugs end. I prefer this, it's the reason I hate Strapcode bracelets, and I'm wearing one right now on my SKX013!

I really enjoyed your video, and had ordered mine before seeing it. I hope I don’t have any quality issues with mine, but even the not-so-great things that you went over, don’t lessen my desire to get it and love wearing it.

They also change the white lettering on the face to match secondhand stat color whatever that color is gold or yellow dark yellow whatever that is it matches. When I ordered the watch I told him in a note about what you brought up on the size of the watch it what other stations talked about and they told me they were changing the process it would be a while before I got mine. They threw in a nato band for free with it very happy with the watch. Indexing the dial there’s no play in the alignment is perfect

    The play on the bezel can be fixed. I did it on my blue 007 homage after watching a few instructions on KZread, and it’s totally doable. You pop off the bezel and underneath is a bended pin which must be shortened and bended outwards. Bezel back on and now... zero play. And I’m notoriously left handed.

Arrived dead, second hand does not move, hand winding, shaking, pulling and pushing the crown can't get it going. So, now sending it back to get refund. It's my third Pagani Design and already got a dead one. Probably bad luck on my part. I do like the look of the watch, I bought the black and gold one, it's really too bad the NH35 movement came dead. Bracelet felt kind of jingly, thin and cheap though. Maybe I will try another brand of the same homage as I do like the look.

    I received mine this week. Initial impressions... it's a *very* pretty watch. I got the one in black and gold. I love the red pip triangle and the red on the crown stem. However, one of the rivets on the bracelet (not a removable one) was broken and the bracelet as it comes is unusable. Too bad. In person, the riveted bracelet is prettier than I thought in the videos. We'll see if they resolve that issue someway. The shipping was also a cluster-f*ck. They cancelled my shipment twice so it took 2 months to get to me. PD and the Trendy Mens Watch store aren't impressing me. The bezel has a very light touch, but I haven't noticed it moving while being jostled. Screwing in the crown is a little gritty. The case is pretty substantial. It's pretty slab sided, but it feels pretty comfortable on the wrist. I ended up putting it on a rubber bracelet from StrapCode with curved ends and it fits nicely, but I'd like to try it on its bracelet. The divers' extension is pretty crappy looking - has anyone had a try at removing it? Is it worth $117 US - not considering the bracelet issues. I think it would be more reasonable at less than $100. I think I'd look at one from one of the other more upmarket AliExpress vendors. This one is more of a fashion watch than a tool watch.

Do you or any commenters have any experience on sending money directly to Pagani in China for a watch that isn't on sale on any affiliate store AND having to wait? The estimated arrival date is over 30 days.

    Homages are just a filler for people who can't afford the thing they want. Having said that they often are a lot better value , for a similar look. But at the end of the day if you want that Ford mustang and you can only afford a fiesta , no amount of tweaking will replace the real deal. Again £90 for that black bay vibe ain't too bad, and despite the q.c issue , the watch itself is quite nice for the money. 30 paganis or the real deal, the choice is yours really !!!

    Pagani cannot be recommended without reservations, to be honest. Its a lottery draw. There are many „nice“ watches but the thing is there should be a minimum standard of QC even if we are „diving“ under the 100.- mark ( $,£ or €, doesnt matter so much cause the current exchange rates are rather narrow: 1 £ = 1.17 € , 1€ = 1.18 $).

His bracelet was fine, I think the problem with yours was they just didn't seat the pin correctly and it popped out. Not a problem at all. But he's very unhappy with the bezel. I mentioned the 60 clicks, but he has a first generation Orient Mako XL with 60 click bezel and no play. He says himself it's very bad and registered a complaint with Ali Express. Didn't see it personally but I'll probably get a look at it later. Maybe it's first production problems. Might be better to wait until they iron out the bugs before ordering it.
