Pagani Design has released another Speedy homage, this time paying tribute to the Apollo 8 Dark Side of the Moon watch. In this extensive Unboxing Video, I'll walk you all around the PD-1779, with it's PVD coated stainless steel case, domed sapphire crystal (now with anti-reflective coating!), ceramic bezel insert, Seiko VK63 mechaquartz chronograph movement, 100m of water resistance, and a partially skeletonized dial.
If you'd like to purchase this watch, please follow this affiliate link to the Pagani Design Flagship Watch Store on AliExpress: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmE...
The usual price for the link above is about $110 USD, and occasionally there is a discount offered. During the 11/11 Sale these were under $60 USD!
If you prefer not to shop at AliExpress, here is the link to the watch on the Pagani Design website: www.pagani.design/product/pag...
Or if you like to shop Amazon, the watch can be found through this affiliate link: amzn.to/3SFxN3I
Note that I'll receive a small commission on qualifying purchases.

This is one of my three PDs that I mentioned in that other post. I fell in love with the black/yellow over the other colors. I now have a month of solid wear on mine and the strap is holding up fantastically (in fact, I'm wearing it right now).

@WatchWitt 6 месяцев назад

I love the black and yellow too! I’ve been wearing mine on an FKM Tropic style strap, though.

wildly cool and different watch.

Great mechaquartz spin off homage of the original!

@OntheWrist 8 месяцев назад

Cool looking PD. Great sale and hard to argue with the price for a mecaquartz!

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

Exactly. Honestly, it's a good buy at $110! This Seiko mechaquartz is accurate. My PD-1701 clocked in at +0.0 spd after almost a YEAR!

@thetimebombardier 8 месяцев назад

nice review dude, prefer this one to the real one LOL price way nicer also!! 😎😎

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

Well....I don't think I prefer it over the original, but I DO prefer the price! 😂 Thanks for checking it out!

@crispinnnn 8 месяцев назад

Have you seen the pepsi version i knid alike it but the dial isa just the v5 alaska and the v3 moonwatch style but the bezel is pepsi

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, looks good...even though it's a bit of a mishmash! The black V3 is still my favorite of the bunch.

@Man_Ray78 7 месяцев назад

Of all of the Pagani's Speedmaster versions you have seen,, is this one the most modernized and ''original''? I think this version can be good for those that seek the MoonSwatch.

@WatchWitt 7 месяцев назад

Well, still not original, but definitely less of an exact match. I think any of the PD-1701's (multiple versions) or this watch are a better value than the MoonSwatch...as long as they appeal to you!

@walkaroundwatches 8 месяцев назад

Looks cool af and how much 😮😮😮

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

This watch is solid at $110 (full price) but under $60 is a slam dunk!

@Watchwist 3 месяца назад

Is it Ok to buy PD 1701 & this one also PD 1779?

@WatchWitt 3 месяца назад

Yes, just depends which you prefer. I would get V3 or later of the PD-1701. This PD-1779 has an improved crystal, due to the anti reflective coating.

@scottstafford3550 6 месяцев назад

I live in the US. Can I order from AliExpress without any problems? Thank you so much. Scott

@WatchWitt 6 месяцев назад

Yes. I was a little hesitant my first purchase as well, but all is good. Just be careful about the stores you buy from…make sure they are established and have a positive review rating. And know that it’s VERY expensive to send a watch back to Hong Kong from the US, so shop carefully.

@scottstafford3550 6 месяцев назад

One more thing. Do they use PayPal?

@WatchWitt 6 месяцев назад

@scottstafford3550 Yes. PayPal, ApplePay, credit cards, etc

@jetm1957 7 месяцев назад

How long do PD watches last?

@WatchWitt 7 месяцев назад

As long as any other well built watch. This is stainless steel construction and a quality, reliable Seiko movement.

@LymanPhillips 5 месяцев назад

At this price, I find it hard to believe that's a DLC coating. More likely it's one of the non-DLC variants of PVD. I checked in the site and couldn't find any reference to what it is. Can anyone verify?

@WatchWitt 5 месяцев назад

Yes, I apologize...I often use DLC and PVD interchangeably when describing the difference that it's not a traditional stainless steel case. It just happens when I'm voicing these live...an unboxing. I also agree that this lower end PVD at this price.

@SAREL1963 6 месяцев назад

Insane quality watches and made in and by China.

@WatchWitt 6 месяцев назад

I like the partial skeleton dial on this one...

@rubina6327 6 месяцев назад

Sadly it doesn't have the "date". 😢

@WatchWitt 6 месяцев назад

I prefer a date complication too. But on the 1701 you can hardly see it anyway.....

@rubina6327 6 месяцев назад

@@WatchWitt Well at least it's still there on the 1701. I really like this one since it's in black. But again someone who always forget a date like me will be in a little panic. 😅

@@rubina6327 I do the same thing...look down, freak out...look at my phone. I love date complications, and even better if there's a day complication too!

@benjamminausx7584 5 месяцев назад

I WISH the brand had another name. Beautiful watch though

@WatchWitt 5 месяцев назад

I hear you. They are exploring with making some watches with their logo only on the dial. Check out this Spirit Zulu Time homage: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8iCFx0hthZU.html

@1988banker 8 месяцев назад

I wish they would have spelled tachymeter the French way. Probably not going to buy this model, but that is inconsistent imo.

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

It's a funny looking word. The French spelling does mask that a little, but I don't have a preference. I love hearing what's important to others about a watch, though, so thanks for sharing!

@1988banker 8 месяцев назад

@@WatchWitt I do enjoy the small differences that they do to some models. The v4 of this watch is the one I have, great watch! For some reason I just like "tachymetre". They kept flipping it around as well. I've seen multiple models with both versions of the spelling. They have more versions of this watch now! Crazy accurate watch!

@WatchWitt 8 месяцев назад

@MrClassy1991 Месяц назад

is the PD1779 the latest version? v1, v2, v3, v4, v5 are all confusing

@WatchWitt Месяц назад

If you're asking if this is a "vX" of the PD-1701, no it's not. They gave this watch its own reference number, PD-1779. This is the only version of the 1779...there hasn't been a v2 yet, that I know of. The version numbers happen when they update the watch, or add a dial variation. This IS the same specs as the newest PD-1701, but adds PVD case, partial skeleton dial, blue anti-reflective coating on the sapphire crystal, and a completely different strap.

@MrClassy1991 Месяц назад

@@WatchWitt I get it now, thanks 👍
