Marathon has a great 2024 planned for you! Their first release of the year is the Steel Arctic Navigator. Combining the stark white dial with their steel case Navigator is a match made in heaven! This polar dial can stand up to whatever you want to throw at it.
The Navigator was originally developed for the Air Force, by special request. It has to pass many rugged requirements, such as temperature, vibration, thermal shock, mechanical shock. . . the list goes on! And this one is powered by Tritium light tubes for lume that never dies!

Thank you for watching!
Cool that the blue tubes are exclusive to your version! 👍
Yes they are!
That’s a great bracelet. Very nice! Thank you for thinking of us.
You are so welcome!
Those are all very nice!
I think so too!
I will be purchasing one of these bracelets soon. Thank you Marc.
Wonderful!
Great addition. I've heard a lot of complaints about the Marathon bracelets.
love the no date!!! Saving up some pennies!
Do it!
Awesome bracelet for GSAR!!
It sure is!
Nice bracelets!
Thank you! 😊
Sure would love a bracelet like that for my orient baby triton
Do you sell just the bracelet end links for Marathon ?
I've been asking for a TSAR/GSAR bracelet. My Marathon bracelet is pretty beat up and the clasp will sometimes open when I don't want it to. I've had the new bracelet for two days now and it's great, thanks for bringing it to market so I don't have to buy another $300 Marathon bracelet with a sub-par clasp.
I like the Artic Navigator, and would be nice to add it to my Marathon collection, but I'm content for the moment with my recent Marathon acquisitions: SS Navigator and the Islander Navigator. I hope an Islander bracelet is for the MSAR is next?
We shall see
If the case wasn't asymmetrical it'd be perfect to me.
Hmm. I like these now actually.
Cool
Does that bracelet work only with the Marathons, Mark? Just curious.
Yes
Lack of AR is heartbreaking because I've been waiting for this one
Sorry.
Make a rubber strap that wraps to the case for the TSAR please
Noted.
👍
Thanks!
They're cool watches but ridiculously overpriced for what they are to be honest.
True. To think that you could get the polymer navigator for ~ 200 bucks a couple years ago... now they charge almost 500.
Think their "sales figures disagree".....
Agreed. I was fortunate enough to get my 41mm TSAR on sale but $1,200 msrp for a Quartz Diver on a rubber strap is insane. They are extremely well built though and i dont regret buying it, just wish they were a little more affordable. As far as the navigator goes i much prefer the Islander collaboration model to this new steel arctic they released. The black case with white dial and blue tritium was a home run.
It is overpriced. Just like iphones 😂
A thousand dollar quartz. Who do they think they are? Hamilton?
3:13 No clicky clacky with your bracelet. If Marathon finds out you are offering your own bracelets for their watches, will they go … ballistic?
😂
Wish marathon had more watches with luminova rather than only tritium
The OEM Marathon bracelet is sooooo disappointing for what I paid for. Waiting to take delivery my Ilander Marathon bracelet.
Love this white version. Will you be making a steel bracelet for the Navigator? I'd buy one. I promise.
No plans yet.
$600 plus for a quartz watch... must be bad ass
And Swiss ;)
I do like them, just seems overpriced. As to your travel watch, my Casioak is my go to airport watch.
Good one
@@islandwatch I choose it as it is light weight and not being metal I don't have to worry about setting off metal detectors
it's so weird and I don't know to describe it… your collab and this model on paper ARE EXACTLY what I want for a reliable watch spec-wise. but why is it that when I look at them they're not calling to me. why?
Dunno, but I get it. Just not in love.
@@islandwatch maybe I'll change my mind if I see them in person… October is so far away. lol
I love Marathon's watches but i really feel like they've priced themselves out of consideration for a ton of people, myself included. Just asking way too much for what you get and brand heritage can only carry markup so far.
To the "its too expensive for quartz" commenters: show me a mechanical watch that is +/- 10 seconds a year accurate and with the same military spec'd durabilty for less money.
also the second hand seems to be centered on almost every indices. I think ppl need to look deeper to see quality quartz.
You learn to take all commentary :)
Marathon bracelets really suck and are waaaaaaaay overpriced. they are the cheapest bracelets you can buy and probably cost about $5 to make.
