Marathon MSAR
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- It’s as dependable as watches get, if we ignore the past sixty years
- One-watch collection for me; I researched a ton in the sub, learned a lot, and IMO nailed it. Marathon MSAR is what you’d get if a team of watch-researchers profiled me and only me.
- Cool watch. Great choice.
- It’s a very respectable watch.
Cons
- Alright now we’re getting somewhere - never noticed it’s asymmetrical. I have noticed that the 19 and 23, and the 17 and 13, are not symmetrical either, though I expect if they were it would look weird for some subtle reason.
- Runs so slow, you're still in the Soviet era.
- Watch doubles as a cereal bowl if you're ever in need of one.
- It would've been perfect without those inner 13-24 numbers.
- The watch equivalent of the dull suit that wears brightly colored socks to “show personality.”

It's a fine piece and I would buy it, if not for the date window between 4 and 5. They couldn't even put in halfway between the 4 and 5 marks.
