Its Swiss-made Sellita SW200-1 movement is considered reliable and serviceable. One reviewer found the bracelet lacked refinement and preferred the rubber strap option. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 41mm for its excellent legibility and robust movement.

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1766 for its attractive dial options, comfortable wearability, and light weight. Some owners find the textured green and blue dials appealing, with one owner noting it's among their most worn watches and would buy more colors. However, the bracelet is frequently criticized as cheap-looking and poorly constructed, with one owner calling it "brutal" and "crap," and the included tool is too large for the faux screw pins. Concerns are also raised about a lack of a running second hand, a potentially reflective crystal, and misaligned indices or bezels on some examples. On balance, owners appreciate the Pagani Design PD-1766 for its comfortable fit and attractive dial at its price point, despite significant criticism of the bracelet quality.
