another solid offering from pagani. but they need to step it up a bit. i have a feeling they are getting too comfortable in their position.

Great review as always steve, I genuinely have started to enjoy your B-roll shots recently (they were always great but look even better nowadays), they make the watch look even better somehow, I might just pull the trigger on this piece as my first ever mechanical watch now that you've provided some insight. It's going to be my first mechanical watch so I was going to have a bit of fun with it thats why i liked the LHD, lovely colorway too

I'm tempted towards one of these but I've heard of reliability issues with the Pearl movement.

@EscapeWheel Жыл бұрын

yeah, they are pretty hit and miss. I've had like 6 or 7 of them, and they have all been fine but never used them for more than a couple years. generally, I think they are fine. but there's always the chance you get a lemon. REALLY hoping pagani updates these to the NH34...that would be awesome

@WesWatchRoom Жыл бұрын

First of all, that intro was very nicely done mate. As for the watch, I like the colourway and that is about all really. GMT's aren't my favourite, but I do hope they make a non-gmt right hand drive in this colour. Also that movement is a little questionable too. Still got work to do on the lume front too. Nicely work.

@EscapeWheel Жыл бұрын

Haha, yeah, I'd be down for an NH35 based RH model.

@bradwarren1713 Жыл бұрын

Ditto - great intro. I have the watch and think it's fun, frills, and if you genuinely wear watches on RH (I do a lot of the time) then it's kind of functional also. I can't imagine this will be the last homage in this style. PD have at least set the bar for others to surpass.

Hi!. I swapped out my stock oyster bracelet with a leather strap and now I'm having trouble rettaching it again. The shock bars can't get into thr lug holes no matter how much I try. Most I get is one side in, another side is off by a very small amount. Do u have any tips? Thanks. I have the exact same sprite as you but mine is with oyster.

@EscapeWheel Жыл бұрын

A problem with most Pagani watches, unfortunately. You just have to keep trying. Use the springbar tool to press on the tip (no depress into the springbar, but to force it over into the hole) Some people use fishing line or floss to loop it around the bar and pull it I to place but this hasn't ever worked for me. Good luck!

I used to think I would be a submariner/gmt guy for life…but the more I crawl down the rabbit hole the more they bore me. I think it’s the flat case and their inability to look good with anything but metal bracelets, (my opinion.) thanks as always for the review.

How can you tell what movement your particular Pagani Design the PD1662 has?

@EscapeWheel 6 ай бұрын

For me, it's the feel. Easy way to tell us to pull the crown to the time setting position. Rotate the crown clockwise and the time should move forward. If the time moves back it's the DG/Pearl

I've been fooled by the position of the crown the first time. I put it on my wrist the wrong way. 😂

@martinhack6486 9 ай бұрын

Surely one of the main selling points is that it is fitted on the right hand so easily usable for a lefthanded person. So, why fit it the wrong way round.

@EscapeWheel 9 ай бұрын

True. But I couldn't get used to it on the HR. And having it on the left gets the crown away from digging into the wrist. More comfortable for sure. I'm so used to RH watches that I found it really tough to use it as a LH watch (especially manipulating the crown)
