Couple new watches came in!
on: August 10, 2024, 01:36:34 AM
  Since these aren't strong/good lume watches I decided to start a new thread. They are dress watches.
2 new dress watches:


1st: Pagani PD 1731 Quartz AR Sapphire crystal 38mm case dia, 12.5mm thick, 100 m waterproof


2nd: Pagani PD-2770 Hardlex crystal (organic) Automatic 43mm case dia, 15mm thick, 30 m waterproof. Good size for my fat 8-1/4" wrist.


I like em!  ;)

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

lol  :dunno: I really like the dark blue one (2770) might be my favorite dress watch and it only cost me 52 usd! feels nice on the wrist, good size and shinny. One con, it has a butterfly clasp that I don't care for. I might change it later.

sorry I took so long to answer :facepalm:

A Butterfly clasp closes/folds with 2 sides that fold inward and meet in the middle of the whole clasp like folding wings and for me it means 2 times I have to lock it (one each side) each side has to close/lock instead of just one folding clasp that locks in one snap.

For me this butterfly clasp can "pinch" my skin (and has) and has little if no adjustment. They say it's safer so your watch won't if fall off if opened but the same can be said for the regular folding clasp. This butterfly clasp has no extra security lock so if I accidentally push the release button it easily opens. People like it I think because it looks cool  :dunno:

here's a link that explains the different types:

No problem; I know how life can get. And I think a butterfly clasp would probably annoy me, too. Thanks for the very helpful link! :hatsoff:

PAGANI PD-2770SB

Not the original strap, the brown one it came with looked cheap and felt it too,

Good sale going on right now! Last day :ahhh (until the next one) buy 2 get 1 free AND up to 25% off on almost everything, why I just ordered more!  :whistle:

The brown faded one there was 19.99 (I ordered 2 others too) for a total of 39.97 (including shipping 3.88 usa)
and I turn off auto insurance they add to the price (just click off) or else it's 3-4 bucks more.
