Pagani Design PD-1662 GMT (Sprite Homage) 4K Watch Review #WR4K

[dazh]

Well I've bought one, paid £57 on AliExpress, looking forward to its arrival, my first Pagani Design watch 😊

[jj]

I just got mine in the mail… it’s the best looking pagani and have owned… I love it!!!

I've recently brought a PD-1662 NH34 Green/Black and I think its excellent for the money. As a long time wearer and collector of Swiss 'luxury' mechanical watches, I was very sceptical about Chinese homage watches, but I wanted a cheap mechanical watch which I wouldn't be upset if it got knocked about at work. Well I was so impressed I ordered a couple more. Riddler with NH34 runs at +2 spd, and Batman with DG5833 runs at +3/4 spd, expecting a Coke in the next couple of days. All on jubilee bracelets, and my only complaints are the clasp micro adjust is awkward, and the bezel could have more resistance, other than that none of the issues you experienced with your review piece.

This week $57. $105 for NH movement. Fingers crossed. Though I regulate at will, smooth any sharp edges, brush if the impulse strikes, change bands at will. Oil rotor if needed. Fall in love again.

A thing I believe to have noticed about Pagani that they don't seem to extend the improvements on some models to others that are in production. The backplay issue should have been resolved at the same time as that on the subby homage.

[tonystarks]

I appreciate a blunt honest opinion from someone who knows what they are talking about! The detail and accuracy of your reviews are second to none🤘

[thecrypto]

No bull honesty! Love it! I bought a Pag and it fell apart within an hour of wearing. I hate the thing so much it is sitting under the bed on the floor

[jasonbostock]

It's typical of Pagani there, s always small QC issues this one had several I have it in my basket just took it out great honest review i really am going to stop buying Pagani its just to hit and miss its a shame

[martinowl]

Must be so frustrating & annoying for you, when the pieces you receive for review have issues that Pagani are well capable of avoiding & do manufacture other models that don’t exhibit the same flaws. Fair play to you for telling it how you find it & not glossing over flaws or excusing them due to price.

[zimankhan]

One big problem with the left hand, is that the date changes at 6pm and takes along time to change this is because it’s the normal gmt movement turned upside down. Only way to partly solve it, is by setting it at am. So the date will be change most likely when you are not awake.

[EdEditz]

I just took delivery of mine. A lot of the issues raised in this video seem to have been addressed. The cyclops is aligned correctly on mine, the two colours on the bezel are now split right down the middle and the bezel has no where near as much play in it anymore as is shown in this video. The winding stem still has some resistance in it but no more than an Orient Kamasu. The lume is also more even in colour now.

[Skurtle]

I finally understand why this called the riddler…
When you look at it, all you left with, are questions…
Why all these QC issues?

Overall, I can’t stop thinking this homage was rushed. Better to release a worse product now than no product whatsoever.

Too bad that you can’t add this one to your collection, would’ve been a nice oddity!

Thanks for the review!

[jazzman]

Thanks for your honest review. It is why I sub. I have the “Sapphire Sandwich” Chinese Pilots Watch_1963 I got from LIW about 18 months ago. I just bought a new mesh bracelet from Marc and it really makes a difference. But…it is very delicate and I am uber careful with it. I may try another Chinese watch soon. A Sugges or a Phoebus, maybe the star on the block, San Martin. I did just buy a superb Islander from LIW. An ISL_73. 38 mm by 13 mm. On solid end link Jubilee bracelet (Milled clasp, Sapphire, solid 316L stainless everything and a very cool (& perfectly aligned) dive bezel to go with 200 m………& it was $329.00 USD with a Seiko NH-36 Day/Date. A real watch. I wouldn’t waste my money on this POS on a bet. Thanks again for a thorough, honest (brutally, lol 😂) review. We were all served well.

[paulhiggins]

I think you reviewed that watch very well. Had experienced that movement before and not a good one, timing on the graph was awful and even after servicing it it wasn’t much better. Lasted two years and then I binned it
Does anyone really wear a left handed watch anymore, why would you want the crown on the other side even if you did, I always take my watch off for adjustment with a screw crown
Great review and come on Pagani you can do it

[kevinwall]

Try as I might, I could not see what you were talking about re the bezel insert (green to black). Looked absolutely fine to me and I paused your video to study it.
Same story with the 'wonky' magnification bubble.
Not sure one can expect perfection for the price.

[brunocris]

I had so many expectations regarding this piece.... I was expecting Pagani was moving towards San Martin quality when I saw first pictures of this watch but unfortunately is not... thanks for the review!

[unclebillhk]

I got one and I am loving it. Only around USD100, outstanding 👍

[reezevlog]

lefty watches is not for everyone…..i just cant…good in-depth review👍🏻👍🏻

[Solaar_Punk]

Could you swap another movement in, or would the case height be an issue?

[christophermarshall]

Pagani Design, PLEASE make this same exact watch in a right handed version (crown on the right side of the case to wear on the left wrist)….why is this color combination not available for the left wrist? I’m confused!
