Casio EFB-730DvsOllech & Wajs 8000

Owners widely praise the Casio EFB-730D for its 40mm size, which is considered perfect for smaller to medium wrists and versatile for strap changes with its 20mm lug width. The subtle sunburst blue dial is noted as classy and better in person than in photos, and the overall finish is considered quite good for the price. Some owners find the constantly running central seconds hand impractical, while others appreciate its straightforward Casio quartz reliability and value around $150. One owner reported the second hand sticking on the minute hand, and another found the 47mm lug-to-lug measurement wore larger than expected. Overall, owners rate the Casio EFB-730D highly for its comfortable wearability and attractive design at the price point.

Owners find the Olech & Wajs 8000 comfortable and sleek on its strap, noting its sharp appearance for casual wear, though one owner mentions the ticking is a bit loud. Some reviewers describe the case and bracelet as having razor-sharp edges, leading to discomfort on smaller wrists due to a lack of bracelet articulation. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the tool-watch aesthetic and Havana fumé dial of the Olech & Wajs 8000, despite some finding its sharp edges and bracelet stiffness polarizing.
