The Marathon General Purpose Stainless Steel Quartz is essentially a re-issue of the brand’s classic GG-W-113 field watch, which was supplied to the US Army throughout the 1980s.
This classic field watch has a case made from 316L surgical-grade stainless steel with a non-reflective satin finish. The crystal is a flat sapphire which provides the perfect blend of scratch resistance, durability, and clarity. All of which are vital attributes for a watch worn by military personnel.
To ensure legibility in low-light, the General Purpose watch makes use of tritium tubes. Unlike normal luminescent paint, the tritium outputs a steady glow, and won’t fade after a few hours. This guarantees the watch will be legible whatever the time of day.
Powering the watch is the reliable ETA FØ6 quartz movement. This 3 jewel Swiss movement is accurate -0.3/+0.5 seconds per day and also includes an End of Life (EOL) indicator to inform you that a battery change is needed.
