In-Depth Comparison

1. Design Philosophy and Aesthetic

ADDIESDIVE (36mm Quartz): This watch is clearly designed as a modern "Explorer" or field watch homage. The aesthetic is clean, simple, and vintage-inspired due to its small 36mm case diameter. It features a smooth, polished bezel and a legible 3-6-9 dial (often referred to as an Explorer-style dial). The main visual feature is the "Bubble Mirror Glass," which refers to the highly domed crystal (either K1 Mineral or Sapphire, depending on the specific model variation like AD2066 or AD2023) that gives it a classic, highly-distorting vintage look.

PAGANI DESIGN PD1775: This model is a pilot or racing chronograph homage, distinguished by its two chronograph sub-dials (bi-compax layout) and retro-style pushers flanking the crown. At 37.5mm, it is also a compact and wearable size, often praised for its excellent case finishing with polished flanks and brushed lug hoods. The design is more complex and functional, featuring a date window at 6 o'clock that maintains dial symmetry.

2. Movement and Performance

The choice of movement is the single most significant difference between these two watches.

ADDIESDIVE: The Sweeping Time-Only Quartz

  • Movement: Japanese Seiko VH31 Quartz.
  • Performance: The VH31 is a 3-hand quartz movement that has a unique feature: the second hand sweeps at four beats per second (4Hz), mimicking the smooth motion of a mechanical watch, but with the high accuracy and low maintenance of a quartz movement. Because it is a simple 3-hand movement, there are no concerns about chronograph hand alignment.

PAGANI DESIGN: The Mecha-Quartz Chronograph

  • Movement: Japanese Seiko VK64 Mecha-Quartz (also called Meca-Quartz).
  • Performance: This is a hybrid movement. The timekeeping is regulated by a quartz crystal for superb accuracy. However, the chronograph function is powered by a mechanical module. This means the chronograph's center seconds hand sweeps smoothly like a mechanical watch when activated, and instantly snaps back to zero when reset. This provides a premium "mechanical feel" to the stopwatch function, which is a major selling point.

3. Build Quality and Materials

Material/Feature ADDIESDIVE PAGANI DESIGN PD1775
Case Material 316L Stainless Steel 316L Surgical Stainless Steel
Crystal Type Bubble/Domed Sapphire or K1 Mineral Flat or Domed Sapphire
Lume Exceptional (BGW9 Super Luminous) Standard/Minimal Lume
Bracelet Solid links, milled clasp (often 19mm lug width) Solid links with screw pins, 5-link design (Jubilee-style), milled clasp

The PAGANI DESIGN PD1775 has a slight edge on materials with a guaranteed Sapphire crystal and a more premium, complex five-link bracelet construction secured with screw pins (a feature often found on more expensive watches).

The ADDIESDIVE's main material draw is the use of high-quality BGW9 Super Luminous on the hands and indices, which provides an excellent blue glow in the dark, often surpassing its competition.
