Why customers love Marathon?

Marathon Watch is indeed known for making watches that are often used by government agencies, including the military. The company specializes in highly durable and reliable timepieces that meet strict government specifications for use by soldiers, pilots, and divers. They are known for their toughness and functionality, often including features like tritium gas tubes for illumination.

In fact the model is a SAR not GSAR. Production stopped now. The Canadian Coast Guard watch is the watch that does everything! very solid, reliable, perfectly waterproof. a submariner look but a very different watch with its personality. it is very present on the wrist. Luminova very effective at night and dial very readable in all circumstances. It keeps time well and its ETA movement is very reliable. Small downside for the bezel a little fragile but still of good quality. Normally delivered with a rubber strap, I added a steel strap.

Is it still a watch for military use? Less than a month after purchase (no shock): Crown and its winding stem detach from the case. Fast after-sales service and repair under warranty, nothing to say. About 6 months later, I dropped it on tiles. It works but the tritium tube index (at 11 o'clock) comes off and wanders around on the dial. A few days or weeks later, the crown and its stem come out of the case again. I dropped a Rolex Date Just, the latter completely absorbed the shock, even though that is not its purpose. How to start this review while trying to remain as objective as possible. If it is not mission impossible, it turns out to be complicated. Positive: - An exceptional rubber strap, both in terms of its cut, its flexibility, its comfort, its softness, its matte color, its lightness and still today... which still smells of vanilla. - A 120-click bezel without play, with precise and enjoyable crackles for the ears. An original notched rim, excellent aggressive grip and pleasant toothed wheel design. (too bad its triangle pointer is in super luminova and not in tritium) - I love tritium, much more than any other luminescent technology. - the texture of the crown provides an exceptional grip and its size makes its handling comfortable and easy. - I don't like divers, but this watch has all the characteristics (ISO6425) but without the design! I like its military/efficient/modern look much more. - Really good finishes. The design is efficient and classic, which makes it ergonomic as well as pleasant to the eye. But precisely, without originality. The dial is too visually loaded, but the essential is easy to read, the superfluous and reduced in size, less prominent. Negative: - A functional date but still integrated in a clumsy way. - Unbalanced on the wrist (an ultra light bracelet and a really massive/dense case). - Robustness unworthy of the image and history that the brand conveys. - Not very precise, it lost 5 seconds of memory per day. For some it is within the limits, but for me, Swiss, these days, it is not acceptable. It is much easier to correct the time when a watch is fast than when it is slow. - Too thick Without the problem of robustness, solidity, reliability, this watch would have been one of the rare ones in my eyes to come close to a justifiable price. Sooner or later I will have it repaired, because I love it enormously visually, I loved handling it. I would take much better care of her, since she is not what she claims to be.
