Comfortable, Accurate, Tough Quartz Beater Suggestion

Hi gents can you all suggest a comfortable, accurate, tough quartz beater? I love Casios but I find the straps rather uncomfortable. (should I mod? with what?) Thanks.

I’d look into Luminox. Tough and relatively inexpensive. The lume is outstanding.

Casio meaning G-Shock? I bought some 3D printed NATO strap holders for my G-shock since I didn't like the plasticy strap.

If not a g-shock, the next thing that comes to mind is an INOX

I didn’t see “cheap” on your list of comfortable, accurate, tough. That being the case, I’d look for a used Rolex OQ, or an Omega or Breitling. A little cheaper Seiko. A lot cheaper, Citizen.
