All about the OLLECH & WAJS OW 8001 HAVANA COSC
Born 1973, reborn 2023 - OLLECH & WAJS OW 8001. Ollech & Wajs was among the first companies to launch sports models with integrated bracelets in the early 70s. Most notable was the OW Ref. 8000 - a sleek and angular chronograph with a TV-shaped dial and a stunning "Havana Fumé" dial.
OLLECH & WAJS OW 8001 in detail
To mark the 50th anniversary of this significant watch, we have developed a new model that embodies the character of the OW Ref. 8000 while being contemporary.
The OW 8001 features a brutalist case made of brushed stainless steel that seamlessly transitions into an integrated, brushed Oyster-style bracelet, designed for extreme durability and closely echoing the original.
For added comfort and stability, the milled bracelet is fitted with a robust, milled and engraved clasp that is extendable by up to 22 mm and features a double push-button release system, offering extra security against accidental opening. Unlike many so-called sports watches, the OW 8001 is actually built for sports.
It shares the streamlined features of its predecessor but has an unmistakably more robust, bulkier aesthetic. An uncompromising 316L stainless steel case with a round dial aperture, an extra-thick sapphire crystal, and a screw-down crown guarantee superior water resistance of 300m (30ATM).
The dial itself reprises the Havana Fumé finish, achieved through a double-lacquering technique, creating a captivating, radial gradient effect. What makes the OW 8001 a class apart among modern sports watches extends beyond its robust exterior. Inside the watch is a Soprod Newton Precision P092 – a custom-made automatic, date-only calendar movement with 23 jewels and a power reserve of 44 hours.
The Soprod Newton P092 movement is independently tested for reliability and durability at the internationally renowned Laboratoire Dubois in Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, and is additionally awarded the Chronofiable® certification.
The OW 8001 represents a harmonious fusion of durability, utility, precision, comfort, and style, making it versatile enough to be worn with both a wetsuit and a linen suit. As has become OW's new tradition, the first 56 pieces will be numbered crown editions.

FAQs
About David from WATCHDAVID
My name is David, and I've been deeply involved with watches for many years – not just as a dealer, but primarily as a tester, photographer, and classifier.
Since 2018, I’ve been running WATCHDAVID as an independent watch project featuring reviews, videos, and real-world wearing experiences. Many of the watches you'll find here have been on my own wrist – often for extended periods.
WATCHDAVID.SHOP is intentionally personal. I only sell watches that I genuinely stand behind – no anonymous mass-produced goods, no dropshipping, no "quick trends." Experience, transparency, and honest assessment are paramount to me.
And yes: I am not an anonymous seller. I enjoy good food, sneakers, and photography – and I have a proven weakness for Kinder Chocolate.
If you have any questions or are unsure, feel free to contact me directly. I will respond personally.
Shipping & Insurance
Within Germany and the EU, shipping is free of charge. Shipping is handled by DHL and insured up to €500, €2,500 or €25,000, depending on the watch's value. The watches are therefore always sufficiently insured.
You can find the delivery time in the description and/or below the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after an order is placed, while others are brand new and, for example, will only be available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...
Revocation & Return Shipping
You can revoke your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.
I will cover the return shipping costs for you.
IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself; I will send you the free return label.
To do this, please simply contact me. david@watchdavid.com
It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of any signs of wear. After a successful inspection, I will refund the purchase price to you. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.
Authenticity & Condition of the Watches
I guarantee that all watches I offer are exclusively new, original goods. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly state otherwise (e.g., so-called PHOTO WATCHES).
As an official dealer, I exclusively offer authentic products. These are offered in their original packaging, with a warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in a so-called Full Set. Some deliver more, some less...
Warranty & Service
All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which is usually two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.
Should a warranty claim arise, I will take care of shipping the watch to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and will also organize its return to you. In addition, I will handle all communication with the manufacturer, so you don't have to worry about anything.
Even after the warranty period has expired, I will remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.
No answer received?
You contacted me, via the contact form, about the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you didn't receive a reply?
Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and crazier and are sending more and more to spam.
I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it may take a little longer. As a rule, I reply within a few minutes or hours.
Something can also slip through for me. Or the technology isn't working as it should. Feel free to contact me again. david@watchdavid.com
Mechanics - Sometimes things can go wrong
Before I ship your order, I carefully inspect each watch for visible defects.
However, should a problem arise, such as a defect during transit, please inform me immediately. I will do everything in my power to find a quick solution and ensure your satisfaction.
My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
