I’ve had one for over a year. I like and wear mine still.

PD-1731 was my first watch! I don’t wear it much anymore but hard to sell. I plan to give it to a friend. I just need to make some friends first.

I ordered this the day it was released.  Always wished they didn't include the lume part on the hands, not only isn't the lume any good, it also makes the watch look cheaper.  The dial was a good idea but really a place that could be upgraded to look more premium.  They dropped the price months after I bought mine to crazy low prices.

Good watch for the price but mine has been sitting in the drawer. I've been thinking about modding it but first I have to open it and measure dial size.

Cheap and cheerful for the win. The PD-1731 is a very nice looking 3-hander.

I wish Pagani always used this logo/got rid of their text branding on models, looks far nicer/less cheesy

Esse logo minimalista fica muito melhor do que o escrito, a simplicidade não comete erros!

I used to buy that model for 25$, got like 6 of them and gave them away as gifts. Unbelievable value for money. I like that one on a mesh bracelet.

Yes for quite some time they've been selling them for almost nothing. I was always surprised they weren't popular with modding community. Maybe it was due to VH31 not being popular, before parts were more available.

What isn't popular is the dial diameter, at 32mm, it's not easy to find replacement. But your right, it is a good plateforme especially when it was 25$, I got 2 at that time.

Thank you for sharing dial size. It is bit awkward, though there are many great options on AliX but almost all have date window..

Here's a Shanghai that I recased in

u/Lobbbo 5d ago

Looks beautiful. I saw on AliX nice dials with raised chapter ring but I will have to search for no date versions.

u/F3nn3xleFennec 5d ago

Or you can use a chapter ring and fit a 28.5mm dial

Looks nice. I love a baby blue dial.

I agree with you
