PD-YS is a separate model-number series on Pagani Design's official store (PD-YS003 to PD-YS038 listed in October 2026), sold alongside the four-digit PD-16xx to PD-18xx codes; the brand doesn't explain the prefix. The YS models sit at the upper end of the store's prices (about $128 to $332 on 2026-10-21) and are mostly fashion-led designs with sapphire crystals. This one is a dress watch modelled on the IWC Portugieser Automatic 40 (from the design; the brand doesn't name it): Arabic numerals at every hour, railway minute track, leaf hands and the date in a window above the 6. Movement: the current official spec list names the "Automatic Miyota 8215" with a 42h power reserve (the 8215's rating), which is recorded, and the Spanish store paganidesignes.com (which trades as Pagani Design España and uses the same variant codes) also names the Miyota 8215. The variant codes on both sites, which date from the listing's creation (April 2023 here), read "...-china-seiko-nh35-movement" for every colour, and the Spanish store gives 41h, the Seiko NH35A's rating: probably earlier production. The dial ("Automatic", "Japan movt", date at 6) and the solid caseback fit either caliber (both are made with a date at 6), so check the movement when buying. Brand specs: 316L, 41mm, 13mm thick, 20mm strap width, screwed crown, sapphire with hard coating and anti-reflective treatment (side not stated), 77g (not stated what was weighed; the material line reads "316L Stainless Steel with a leather strap"), strap length 22cm. Water resistance: 200m, from the spec list's "up to 20 bars", the store's 20BAR tag and 200m/660ft icon, the dial's "20BAR/200M" and the caseback's "Water resistant 200M". From the brand's photos: plain polished bezel, solid screw-down caseback engraved PD-YS003, croc-embossed leather straps with a pin buckle. Lug-to-lug and lume are not stated, the gallery has no lume photo, and no independent review was found. The page's marketing blurb ("Advanced Mechanics ... advanced mechanical watchmaking") is generic text. Colour names are the store's and refer to the dial; White and Blue come on a blue strap, Black on black. All colours $132.99 (crossed-out $137.74); every colour was sold out on the official store on 2026-10-21, so status is unknown. The listing dates from April 2023 on the official store (November 2021 on the Spanish store), and the page shows no customer reviews; paganidesignwatch.com has no PD-YS003 page. The store's gallery file names say "white" for photos of the blue and black versions; the images here are its per-colour variant photos.
