This Pagani PD-1671 is by far the BEST Tudor Black Bay 58 150$ homage! but is it worth buying one?

Just wait until the end and give me an honest feedback :) How do you see these Pagani Design PD-1671 Watches? Please let me know in the comments section.

And regarding your saying about cheap Chinese watches, I would rather go for some of this homages knowing that with 2 kids and a mortgage is very difficult to own the real thing, as much as I would like to own a Tudor BB58 or a Rolex Submariner my common sense tells me just to dream about it! But when you look at the quality San Martin offers I would definitely go for one or two of their homages! I better look in the mirror and be happy about myself knowing that my kids have almost everything they need wearing a Chinese homage, rather that looking in the mirror and being shamed about myself wearing the real thing and not being able to offer what my kids need! And this is purely just my opinion! Thanks, lovely reviews mister, keep up the good work 🤟👍👏

I have several "cheap Chinese watches" and some other bigger brands costing thousands.... I enjoy them all. Not everyone buys a watch to pass down but simply to enjoy. I love watches.... NOT watch snobs. 👍👍👍

I bought one on alibaba for $79 and at that price it is a steal. This is now my daily work beater.

A couple of days ago I had never even heard of you and now you're my favourite horology YouTuber! Not only do you love Doxa, Certina and Glycine like I do, but your videos also have some of the best and most visually stunning, professional and artistic production I have seen on YouTube. Keep up the good work!

New to the channel and very impressed with your production and insights. As for the Chinese Homage watches I am an enthusiastic collector. Most of the time these homages are of watches I so admire and could never obtain. Personally it has opened the door of horology for me. A lot of these homages are not in production and priced completely out of my budget. The concept of save up doesn't really apply when we're talkin between $100 homage and a $10, 000 Rolex lol. Now because of being able to obtain these homages I have drove into the history of the watch and the original design so for me it's been a very rewarding and fun.

It’s a great watch. I wear it every day and no way in hell is the Tudor worth ten or twenty times as much. Just because it’s Chinese doesn’t mean it isn’t a quality piece.

[eliakuiper]

it's nice to discover a new channel. lovely homage, wish it was smaller, but might buy it anyway, thanks

Andrei is a class act! Visuals are outstanding and your approach to reviews is light hearted and enjoyable!

I’ve recently received my San Martin SN-008G with SW-200 movement, I can’t believe how well is made, I have no words to express myself regarding the quality! Believe me it worth every penny! I have a friend who have the BB 41 and side by side he couldn’t believe what he saw. San Martin have better specs than BB41 😂😂😂

[mannyfernandez]

Man how couldn’t you’re the only one who covers certina and zrc jajajaj all jokes aside congrats on the 5k, and hope you get to 1m. Cheers and thank you, especially for the reviews, cause they helped me in tough times. You should also cover the A15 from Bulova, and maybe something from lorier

As I actually bought a Pagani a while ago as a present for someone not quite into watches, I have to say I'm not a fan of (cheap) Asian manufacture in general. But I do enjoy the San Martin experience, starting with the quality of their build and finishing (I owe 2 pieces) which is definitely not suggested by the very low prices, excellent communication with them through the main support channel, their ability to homage pieces I cannot afford and the custom projects they run (for example, the ones made in collaboration with the BSH).
I wouldn't buy this particular Pagani for $20, but I do appreciate them for trying to do more than just replicas.
Thank you for the review, Andrei. Keep up the good work 🤟🏼

I can relate, and not to relate, to your thoughts. Always when I buy affordable homage I am amazed by the amount of watch you get for the price. But the lack of history of the brand and unique design does not make the homages as "keepers" in my collection. I just prefer original design. However, sole purpose of big luxury brands is to make profit so in that part these are not any worse than Rolex, LVMH and others. They just play in the minor league.

[IlluminatingWatches]

Not my bag but good you are looking at such a broad variety of different watch types !

WARNING: I received my Pagani Design BB58 homage today and it has a Miyota non-hacking movement inside, even though the sales page specified the Seiko NH35. They are telling me they ran out of the Seiko NH35 movement (I know there is a shortage). This was direct from Pagani Design themselves. I am sending it back.

Another fine video where you just kick 🦵 it out of the park Andre 👍 Tam.

The Chinese, like the Japanese, take what the rest of the world is and can be doing, and do it Better. This watch is a fine example of a product that looks and does better than "the original", at a fraction of the price. That's one reason why many savvy and wise collectors don't bother with "luxury brands" as much anymore.

New to the channel and quite impressed, on spot review which btw reflects my personal views. Regardless, there is a number of watch enthousiasts that can't afford the real thing, and perhaps heritage might not be a priority. Age has a lot to do with it, young folks especially the ones that were not fortunate enough to inherit a piece. On the other hand, Chinese homages are cluttering the watch market....

[samwang]

Well, you might have noticed that the young generation hardly wear watches anymore. If my grandchildren find some watches in my drawer after I am gone the only thing they will think of is to sell it

[archievthapa]

Love the darkish presentation of your videos !!! Subscribed !!!

I've got the red bezel version, it's a little different (better?)
The dial text has the same colour as the markers and hands... I'm not sure whether that colour is gilt or faux patina, but either way it quite closely matches the hands and markers.
Oh, and the hands actually match the colour of the markers properly on mine.
