PURPOSE-FOR ANY TERRAIN

The Search and Rescue Dive Series

Marathon Search and Rescue (SAR) watches were developed to Canadian Government requirements for use in SAR operations. Built to withstand extreme conditions and match the capabilities of the user. First introduced in the early 1990s, they are still in active use today. Overbuilt bezels for manipulation with gloved hands; low-light illumination for use in night missions; screw-in crown and O-ring system for 30ATM water-resistance; high-torque pinions connecting movement to hands; Incabloc™ shock absorbers on all automatic movements. Powered by Swiss-made automatic or quartz movements, the SAR diver’s watches are available in 36mm, 41mm, and 46mm case sizes. 

These tool watches are fitted with knurled, screw-down crowns; iconic unidirectional, fully hashed bezels with 60-minute scales; highly legible dials outfitted with tritium tubes and MaraGlo luminescent material; and solid 316L stainless steel cases to provide ultimate endurance above or below sea-level.

Included with the Anthracite GSAR is our 3-Piece Rubber Strap Kit, also manufactured in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, our strap kit is crafted from FKM Rubber to meet the requirements of high-performance military applications. The 3-Piece Kit comes with one (6 o'clock) tail piece with 8 adjustment holes, and two (12 o'clock) durable black anti-reflective Ion-Plating (IP) Anthracite buckle pieces of different sizing that allow the wearer to tailor the length to fit their wrist size.
