Great looking family of Marathons Sean! I'd really love to get one of the autos one day. I need a better job!!!!

One of the watches Ive yet to own.
Gots to get me one.

Smaller size case (cant remember the abbreviation) , H3, quartz and bracelet please.

My Dievas comes close in the mean time.

Had the mis-marked dial automatic DSAR and when i picked up the JSAR 2824 mod i cut loose the DSAR, wished i would have kept it because it was a nice size and the JSAR is the biggest 47mm watch you will ever find!









the big boy..

That's REALLY is a GOOD watch, and link Duff ! There is so much
to like about this watch. The size, the tritium, the movement, and
just the whole aura around the watch. Your not going to see them
on everyone's wrist, and that's part of the fun . Plus let's face it,
it's just a no nonsense watch, that has an especially cool feel about
it. The watch seems to come with everything by the way. What
a list of specifications, including a bunch of straps ! Thanks for the
link and info sir !..Awesome pics too..Sean, Max, and Trevor !

The dievas? I remember that watch.anders decided to make a watch with tubes to compete with the marathon tsar.Thing was,the tubes used weren't mbmicrotec.instead,they were chinese as well as the entire watch.I did a review of it awhile ago.It was called a smashing success.here it is for the 1st time in years.















anders reply to the review? priceless.He said, hitting it with a hammer doesn't do it any good.well duh.

Are YOU glowing from those tritium tubes now?

If you had to refer a watch sean which one would it be?

think the old tubed dievas got......

If you ever need some help on that, let me know. We could work something out on buying and and getting it shipped to ya!

Thank you, Alan! I really appriciate that! I`ve blown my watchfund for a little while so for now I need to lay low. I was kinda hoping that Mike/Jimyritz would tire of his and sell it to me Unfortunately it seems he likes it a bit too much

Sean-

I remember that review of the Dievas. It was then I first formed my opinion of you.

I gave the orsa monstrum the very same review on wus.The only thing I have left from the Dievas is the bracelet.I kept that as a reminder of how bad a watch could be made yet still be sold to the public.ever looked at the endlinks on it or wondered why the bracelet is so light?

All I know is I HAVE to get a Marathon for sure!! Not sure when, but I will get one, that I know! They are fantastic looking watches!
