HaiQinPagani Design 1701 V6 Moon Wristwatch Homage Men's Quartz Chronograph Watches VK63 Movement Stianless Steel Construction 100M Waterproof Fashion Sport Watch

The watch can compete with some other more expensive Swiss and Japanese watches in my collection. Pagani Design has been really working hard at making something that has good quality and ascetics. I was blown away at how well the face looked and the cleanness of the sapphire and dial layout. The look is spot on without looking like a cheap copy/clone, but a good homage watch with its own characteristics. I really hate that word 'homage' and how it sounds for some reason. I can't be the only one?! Under the hood I expect the Japanese VK63 Movement to provide good and reliable timekeeping for a long time. My only letdown sort of is the bracelet. Yes it looks good and it even fits my 8"+ wrist not to mention everything is in 316L steel. Solid end links and a nice clasp, but it has loose tolerances and makes that cheap sounding rattle at times, and pinned not screw links. Since it came with a NATO band I may swap it out from time to time but overall, damn this is a nice nice version of the Speedmaster Moonwatch! Nicely engraved screw down case back to boot.The watch has 4 benefits over the Speedmaster.1) The use of a Sapphire crystal, while Omega offers that option now the base watch comes with their HESALITE GLASS and sapphire as an option.2) The other step up IMO is the ceramic bezel insert used on the Pagani. Man this thing catches the light and shines! The Speedmaster dropped the ball here as well I believe. The bezel increments and indicators are different on mine as it starts after Tachymeter with 400 and lines vs 500 and dots like pictured currently on this site. I've seen both pictured on this V3 version so yours may differ.3) The Pagani can go twice as deep as the Speedmaster 'maybe'. This Pagani can go down to 10 bar 100M /330Ft and the Speedmaster has a water resistance: 5 bar (50 meters / 167 feet). Screw down crown but not pushers so hmmm?4) The Pagani Design V3 includes a date window which the Omega does not.If Pagani ever makes this one in a V4+ with an automatic movement inside I'm jumping on that one too. As of this writing there is a V4 but it looses the date window, has applied indices and logo, and also a meteorite textured face as well as some new colors. I use to disregard this brand and have one other Pagani but this one watch has made me reconsider the market they hold especially at the prices they offer and the materials and features you get for your $$$. One of my new favorite weekenders, my automatic swiss cheeses still run the weekdays though :)*4/29/24 Adding that the synthetic sapphire has some magical properties. NONE of my other watches from across the globe with a sapphire dome resists smudges and fingerprints like this thing does! I never see a print on it! Amazing to me at least.

The media could not be loaded. 10⭐️ for the watch, nylon strap is okayReview:First I was skeptical about Japan quartz movement, since in the same price range I could get an automatic watch from the same brand. But I’m glad that I chose this one. Screw-on crown, set time and forget for a few years-what a beauty!!Never had this type of watch, but I love how it uses main second arrow for tachymeter, looks professional!I decided to choose nylon band instead of stainless steel. Nylon outside, “genuine leather” inside. Overall quality feels ok, if you don't want to scratch stainless steel bracelet. Buttons are clicky(see video), crown screws on securely.Easy to read, bezel more of a gunmetal than piano-black that I expected. Every single function works flawlessly, but we will see how scratch-resistant is the glass, it goes about 2 millimeters above the bezel.Love it. Will let you know is something goes wrong.

The media could not be loaded. If you're like me you ordered it because it looks similar to other watches that are much more expensive but at a reasonable price. If you look at the product descriptions and the "Top Reviews" for the "1701 Black V3 (White Hand) you'll see that they have the dots near the 12 o'clock indicator and the the Tach on dial starts at 500. Scrolling through the most recent reviews it seems something has changed in the last month or so and the dial and face has design has been changed while still being labeled as the 1701 V3. It seems that they have updated some of the product images on the version selector but not all. For anyone ordering this highly rated watch - be forewarned that the black design has changed - whether that's an issue or not is subjective.Outside of the design change, the watch is very nice - the white hands on the black dial are nice and readable although overhead LED lights do make it hard to read with the reflections. Timing is accurate over the few days I've had it. The chrono start/stop button requires a bit of force to use but it's not terrible - it may make you miss a start every now and then. I don't know if it was because of the heavy press or not but mine failed to work a handful of times but it worked the next time i pressed it. The bracelet is nice and comfortable although i think if you have small wrist you may struggle with the amount of links given the number of links you have to remove.Overall it's a very nice watch - I just wish they would label it as something else because if you're comparing "1701 V3" prices across different sellers and other locations it may be a misleading that this has a different design.
