Still Their Best Rolex Homage? - Pagani Design PD-1651 Review

The PD-1651 was my first Pagani Design and it's fair to say it gave me the bug! They've made some updates but the question is, is this still their best Rolex homage?

    I love mine. Solved some sharp edges on the bracelet with some 1000 grit sandpaper which was very quick and easy. Absolutely no regrets on this one. Beautiful and comfortable. I prefer the jubilee bracelet on PD watches simply for their comfort over the oyster version. I have 8 or 9 different PD watch models and haven't found one to complain about yet. Love and wear them all. I don't understand why people constantly bash the loom on these watches. Who is buying a wrist watch to tell time in the dark?

    Exactly! Just get an Edifice with a back light button if that’s important. In fact, I might do just that!

    Hi Mate, thanks for this video. Just got mine in today, from the 11.11 sale, first day, under 10-day delivery! I ended up paying €92,- after all coupons, etc. I did choose the 3-link bracelet (which is actually a 1-link bracelet), but that one DOES follow the curve of the lugs better. What I do find odd, why have a milled diver's extention, but a pressed metal folding clasp, really odd. But agai, thanks for the video, and is IS worth the money, I think.

    I just bought a PD-1917. I was hoping PD had improved their quality control, but the edge of the bezel is machined poorly in places and on the ring under the bezel there are five imperfections in the metal, small pitted areas. The bezel action is sloppy too. I bought another PD watch a year or so ago and when I received the watch the bezel had fallen off in the post. I expect they send you perfect examples to review, but people should bear in mind that like me, you may very well get a duffer.

    Great looking watch and that bracelet looks fantastic. If it had 200m WR and lume lume lume I'd pay £115 for it. Also would be a contender for £200+ category. It could then put the frighteners on San Martin who are becoming a bit costly now their old age😁

    Great idea, but if you're going to make an homage, do it right. Get rid of the ridiculous open case back, smallify the crown a bit and include a full blue dial, not just the blue/ black fade. At least the creative gentlemen who decided at one time to stick "explorer" on the dial seem to have been squelched.

    It’s sure funny how Invicta who did homoges long before the Chinese did, gets no more love and probably perfected their watches, I’ve never had a bad one and they either had a Japanese quartz or Japanese automatic mechanical movement. Some had Swiss movements. It’s my understanding now that Invicta ONLY uses Seiko quarts or auto movements. Anyway I wish Pagani design were sold on watch dives. Beautiful colour combination silver and grey Ya look at how “out” the bezel is at the “30”
