About Us
What we offer
Paganimontres offers a selection of men's and women's watches fitted with Japanese movements, sapphire glass and stainless steel cases, in a price range between €75 and €190. Our catalogue is mainly made up of PAGANI DESIGN models.
Our position is simple to state: to offer watches whose components that actually matter — the movement, the glass, the case — are the ones usually found well above this budget. We don't try to imitate the language of Swiss watchmaking in our marketing: we would rather set out what is inside the watch.
Our selection criteria
- Sapphire glass only. Every watch we sell has sapphire glass, not mineral glass. It is the component that decides whether a dial still looks clean after two years of daily wear.
- Named Japanese movements. Seiko NH35 and NH39, Miyota 8215, TMI VH31, VH65 and VD55, Seiko VK63 for the chronographs. The calibre is stated on the product page wherever it is known, rather than summed up as a vague "Japanese movement".
- Water resistance stated honestly. We give the figure in metres and in bar, and we spell out what it actually allows: 30 metres handles rain and splashes, 100 metres allows swimming, 200 metres suits heavy water use.
- Chronographs that genuinely work. The counters on our chronographs function — that is not a given in this price range.
- Full dimensions. Diameter, thickness, lug width and strap length appear on every listing, because a watch that doesn't sit well on the wrist is a watch you won't wear.
What we don't promise
An automatic watch in this range drifts by roughly twenty to forty seconds a day. That is normal for a mechanical movement, and a quartz will always be more accurate. If absolute precision is your priority, look at our quartz models: we would rather tell you before you buy.
