    For most people, the difference between 100m and 300m water resistance is meaningless. Heck even 30m to 300m is meaningless - recreational scuba divers aren't certified to go deeper than 30m, and very few snorkelers can dive deeper than 10m. 100m is hella deep!

    • @alangil5335

      Actually you can't dive to 100m with a 100m WR watch because those measurements were made in static conditions. When you move your arms the water pressure on the watch increases. Rule of thumb is that 100m is fine for being in a swimming pool and 200m is probably minimum for diving to 30m. Its confusing. But regardless, most people are not diving with any dive watch as their are now dive computers and such. Still I like my dive watches to be true ISO certified divers. Having said that I have a few "desk divers" like the Hamilton Navy Scuba and I do have this Pagani just because it was so cheap and it has decent Seiko NH35 movement. It looks good on the wrist.

    What I learned is that about 90% of the people care less the brand a man wears. (Cloths, shoes, watch, etc)
    In life you can opt in to pay for brand or not.
    There are some items that is worth buying brand in therms of life expectancy for the item.
    Like anything there items that don’t make difference in that I refer to a watch.
    Pagani is such unrated brand.
    You get the same quality or better than other major brands charging 3x time.
    Is not perfect….
    But hey I am no diver or pro.
    All I need is solid watch that I can tell time and it’s good looking watch to match my outfit.

    The latest version I got recently of the '007' (and it's referring to the older design from Pierce Bronson 007) doesn't seem to be plagued by bezel issues, the Planet Ocean style 3-link bracelet is fine and now has a female end link design. Fits and looks better. BTW, you can easily order the factory matching rubber-nylon dive strap straight from the Pagani factory store. It's $20. PS. They now have the black-gold styled "No Time To Die" version available.
    PS-2.. the 'Seamaster 300M' version with the updated wavy dial and 6 o'clock date window and 9-link Seamaster bracelet (which is done pretty well, but lacks the 007's milled wetsuit extension).
    It is also rated to 200M WR. I have both models, the blue 007, black 300M, and blue-steel grey 300M. All three are excellent quality. The 300M versions have Lume for the bezel numerals and markers.
    Also much cheaper from their factory store, or their AliExpress store.

    Randy: Movie - Ghostbusters. Better Omega homage - Matic Diver 200. It has the wavy dial and some decent color options. $190. Also, Karken Octopus, $250. The Matic is a pretty faithful homage with good build quality. Based on my review of reviews, that’s the one that’s closest to an Omega, but at a “budget friendly” price point.

    Great honest review! I've owned a few Pagani Design watches and they're not bad, I bought them mostly because they were cheap and I was curious. I still have two of them but don't wear them very much, will probably sell them eventually. If you want to check out some better Chinese knockoff brands look at Steeldive, San Martin and SEESTERN. Of coarse they're still not going to come anywhere close to competing with the real watches they're aping, but the quality, in my humble opinion, is a good bit better than Pagani Design. And the lume is a whole lot better too, maybe even better than the original in some cases.

    Have you thought about pre owned watches? You often can get a watch in excellent condition for pennies on the dollar (OK maybe dimes).

I'm not a big fan of "homage" watches; however, I do own a Tudor Black Bay GMT (Rolex Pepsi). I didn't buy it because I secretly wanted a Pepsi, it was the differences from the Rolex that I liked. I've also found that watches that MSRP at retail for $300 to $500 is a sweet spot for getting bang for the buck, Like the Tissot you own.
