Just bought this last week. Eagerly awaiting its arrival. Thank you for the great review.

[@MrSimonfoz]

Pagani seem to be getting better and better , excellent value for this quality.

[@violinist78gr]

Loved your video and review. I am new to watches and now have watched many videos from your channel. You have done an amazing work and left a great legacy of reviews for the future. Was bit saddened to read that you have retired but nonetheless wish you the best for the future 🙂👏🏻👏🏻✌🏻

I bought the 'meteor' dial 'panda' version.....with the black sub-dial faces and it is truly one of my favorite watches, and I own several $,$$$ watches. This one is great to 'grab and go' as its quartz and its very accurate(its off by about 5 seconds every 6 months). The bracelet isnt the greatest but it works and one could get a much nicer bracelet for under $US20. I also have the '50th anniversary' version of the PD-1701(uses the same seiko quartz movement) which is SHOCKINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!! Oi....for the money spent, these 2 cant be beat!! If you are 'on the fence', JUST DO IT!!!

[@martijnkammeijer476]

Great review, thanks! I already made my choice to go for the Paul Newman Daytona, but this review made me rethink that. I really like the steel bezel. They should do this bezel on the Paul Newman. That would make the perfect watch for me!

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Martijn. Glad you enjoyed. Congratulations, excellent choice. Wear yours in good health. Agreed, the steel rather than ceramic bezel would better suit the PD-1676. Regards, #WR4K

[@daleclark3138]

Found a like new one from Amazon Warehouse for $71. Have several of the ceramic bezel models but this is my first one with steel bezel. Good review as always.

I'm enjoying mine even with the QC issues. The large second hand is a little misaligned by one click before 12. It's so close that I can ignore it. Can always get it realigned when I get the battery changed. My diver extender though won't lock, but since I'm gonna replace the clasp with another one with the copy of rolex' adjuster, it's another non issue for me. Worn it thrice in the week, and it's a blast to look at.

[@watchreviews4k]

Congratulations. Excellent choice. Wear yours in good health. Sometimes they are very hard to deploy, or click back in; but loosen up with use. So wear a pair of gloves to protect your fingers, then try pressing it in hard with it laying on a desk. If you deploy it and click it back in a few times it might free up. Regards, #WR4K

Also, an excellent review. Surely one of your best, and most pleasant. Thank you!

This is a very nice piece, really like the green dial option they have as well. Just wish they would release the green dial with an all good case to homage the Rolex Daytona 116508.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching. I will be reviewing the green version soon. Yes, I have seen other collectors comment they would like a gold version. It would be very popular. Regards, #WR4K

[@gonzalomcordovez]

i would love this one with a black ceramic bezel!!! tons of black and white contrast

[@watchreviews4k]

Yes Gonzalo, the black hands would compliment the black bezel used on the PD-1644. Regards, #WR4K

[@ricoswabe18]

They have not fixed the "0" on the CHRON"0"GRAPH. Not an issue on the 1644.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Rico. Yes, I mentioned this in my review. I understand they will be correcting this in later models. It's strange they got it correct on the PD-1664, and PD-1644 models, but all the PD-1727's have the zero error dial. Regards, #WR4K

I would snap buy the pink one if they’d fix this.

[@RodrigoRosasSalhus]

I own three PD Daytonas, including this exact model. I purchased it for 30 pounds! Mine came with an "O", not a zero in "chronograph". But it did come with a misaligned bezel. Half a second tilted to the left. But I don't really care, no one will notice it.

[@Skurtle]

I really like the look of this piece, the steel bezel works rather good with the black hands and subdials, they balances the shininess pretty well. Still, unfortunate that the Indices aren’t black also, but I was probably deceived by the lighting in the first pictures. You did an excellent job convincing them to produce that V2. Just a shame the won’t produce like an "Oysterflex" strap version of it. What also could add interest to that version is that "meteorite" dial, they had with the 1664, but keep those subdials of the 1727. With the Pd-1644, the ceramic bezel was glued on basically, but is that steel bezel part of the case or also in some way attached to the rest of it? That "0" is a weird issue, but not that noticeable, so I wouldn’t be bothered much, same with "Diver" on the back. Some errors are to be expected tbh and if PD improved overall, it’s a clear win in my book! Id think at this point, Pagani should consolidate their Daytona lineup. How many versions are there atm? Thanks for the review, was really enjoyable!

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Kurt. Glad you enjoyed it. I emailed Pagani Design the pictures you sent earlier and suggested they use a similar rubber strap on the PD-1644, and PD-1727 as it would be popular. Yes, both the ceramic, and stainless steel bezels are bonded on with adhesive. Acetone dissolves it, and they can be removed without damage. Agreed on consolidating the collection; there are numerous versions of the; PD-1664, PD-1644, and now PD-1727. Regards, #WR4K

[@jamesgo0926]

Looking forward in reviewing the PD-1168 Latest version. Thanks

Great review, as usual! Will you be comparing/doing a review on the Lacz Denton LD-9105? A 42mm version of this, and imo looks more balanced.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Juris. I appreciate the suggestion. No, I won't be reviewing it. Reason being, it is the same watch (Lacz Denton are made by Pagani Design). I will be reviewing the green, and Tiffany, PD-1727's soon, so don't want to do more Daytona homages at the moment. Regards, #WR4K

[@maxcichon2557]

It would be soooo nice to see the three PG models side-by-side?

[@watchreviews4k]

I am expecting the green, and Tiffany ones to arrive this week. I have now fitted my Bonetto Centurini rubber strap to this piece (see my PD-1644 video). It suits the black hands and sub dials. Regards, #WR4K

[@yankeexpress]

My Tiffany blue 1727 arrived today. Only minor issues are the lack of glidelock clasp, lume on hands is weak, the “0”, and the sharp corners on the clasp which can be softened with a fine file. The Tiffany blue color is distinctive though I realize a color matched date wheel is beyond the price point, so this white wheel is better than a black wheel would have been.

Excellent review as always. Nice looking watch which could be improved by using less text on the dial, in my opinion

[@kentandrei3822]

when it comes to looks which is better this 1727 or the 1676 or the 1701, which would you choose for an everyday watch?

[@watchreviews4k]

It depends on wrist size. The PD-1727 fits and looks better on a 6-7" wrist. The PD-1701 fits and looks better on a 7-8" wrist. The PD-1676 feels and looks more top heavy on all wrist sizes. I found the PD-1701 bracelet to have sharp edges, so it wore more comfortably on a leather strap. The PD-1727 feels more balanced on the bracelet. I think this white dial version is better looking as an everyday piece. Regards, #WR4K
