The Marathon Military Navigator Pilot’s Quartz with Date and Tritium is a highly accurate watch built to strict military specifications – in accordance with MIL-PRF-46374G Type III, Class 1 US Government Specification. First developed by Marathon Watch Company in 1986, the Marathon Navigator Date Watch with Tritium is designed for pilots, parachutists, and law enforcement, and is made to withstand the challenges that may face it in a professional or everyday environment.
The Military Navigator Pilot’s Quartz with Date uses a special acrylic crystal design which is resistant to extremely rapid changes in pressure that would be experienced by a parachutist and would normally cause a watch’s crystal to shatter or come loose from the watch.
Description:
The unit features a high-quality Swiss made high precision Quartz Movement with Date feature. The watch is water resistant to 6 ATM (196 Ft) and is designed for maintaining accuracy at high altitude to 35,000 FT without compensating pressurization. The case is made of an extremely durable nylon/fiberglass composite material and has a 41mm case size which is 13mm thick. The rotating outer bezel provides marking for a second-time zone so that you can keep time in two time zones simultaneously. The dial is signed “Marathon” and features the radioactive symbol (Tritium isotope), with your choice of 3 additional government markings. Tritium tubes are self-illuminating gas tubes which contain an isotope of hydrogen that glows 20 times brighter than an ordinary luminous watch. They will not dull over time like normal photoluminescent (glow in the dark) paint which requires an external light source to create a glow. The stainless steel back has engraved full military markings including “Watch, Wrist: Navigators” and Nato Stock Number 6645-01-544-9475.
The Marathon Navigator Date Watch is brand new and comes complete with matching nylon flight strap (watch can be worn on the wrist or over one’s flight jacket), original box and instructions. The Marathon Navigator Date watch comes with Marathon Watch Company’s comprehensive 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Proudly handmade and assembled in La Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland, the Navigator Pilot’s Quartz with date uses an ETA F06 high-torque 3 jewels Quartz movement with EOL (End-of-Life) indicator.
