Marathon CSAR

Recommended Posts

corsa

Well, I've had a good week, (Some property development came good), and I finally managed to get one of my grail watches. (Can you actually have more than one grail watch??), anyway, I'm getting into Marathon watches, the Canadian company that sells government contract watches.

 

Well, this turned up today, it's their Swiss made (Rumoured to be manufactured by Girard Perregaux) 47mm Chronograph, Genuine 7750 movement, Tritium hr markers and hands, 300m water resistant and in my opinion Just the best Tool watch !!! My life is now complete!!! lol..

 

I'll get some better pics shortly, today is a good day... :D

Yeah, thanks guys, it's a big hunk of stainless for sure, but you really can see and feel the quality. Hey Baxter the screw down crown and pushers are buttery smooth to turn. Better than any rep I've seen so far. Very happy right now. :D

Well done! Love it. Been looking at marathon for awhile now and really love the look of that watch.

 

How much did you pick it up for? Curious.

OK, Peeps. I managed to shoot a few more shots of my Marathon CSAR. To say I'm happy with it would be a massive understatement, I'm like a dog with Two Dicks!!! :dog:

Warbot Just over 2K New.

Damn nice pickup. I love that watch, despite it being WAAAAY too big for me. However, I've been looking for the standard, non-tritium SAR for a long time. It's definitely one of my grail watches, but for whatever reason I hesitate to pick it up whenever I see one go up for sale. It's just the ultimate tool watch. Enjoy that one!
