@@Littletreasury I just looked up the watch and have an addition/correction for you: You say the date has a magnifier over it, actually the sapphire crystal was milled to shape on the inside to make it magnify. Theres nothing glued or attached. Very cool way of doing it i think.
@@chupacabre99 If you have a 16cm or a 20 cm wrist: this will always be a "proud" watch to wear. A lady on my work has one too and is extremely happy with it.

@@watch_a_watch Not sure why it should be. if.. and its a big if, this were to happen. I would just have it replaced. like any part on any wristwatch. however.. this style of watch has been around for 11 years now and Ive yet to see a report of this happening. I've seen a few that were damaged by rough treatment. but that's different. Until I see actual reports of the rubber perishing im just going to label this as scaremongering started by some random person who doesn't even own one.. if this is a worry for you. then the answer is simple. Don't buy one. Im very happy with mine.
@@duntrolling8876 You are correct. It is not a concern. I have had the black version for about 5 years. I have done everything with this watch. It never leaves my wrist. The rubber is still intact. Still looks great. People who says this crap have never owned the watch.
The text on its back: „Developed in cooperation with the german foundation for the rescue of shipwrecked.“
Awesome!!! Thank you for translating!

Well…technically that magnifier is positioned OVER the date window. Is it not? All the same, cheers.
@@r.l.marcelle8665technically there isnt a magnifier at all. the crystal has been milled to achieve that function by itself.
The watch is a beast. Own one and can only recommend it to anyone traveling this route!
Indeed it is! You have great taste!
Beautiful watch simple but bold statement.
Not a brand I had really considered before to be honest. This video has opened my eyes a little bit, that SAR really does look unique.
Glad to help open your eyes! This is a very unique watch and can be friends with your others!
This is a beast, almost indestructable. I own it. I love it. The ultmate toolwatch as far I am concerned.
Does it wear big? I have 16cm wrist and i'm doubtfull :)

Thank you :)@@TheHarryb
I have one and I love it!
The ultimate tool watch!!!
Wearing the swc ark field watch. Ideal size and material on this hot day ... and I love military themed watches.
It looks great on red strap that’s available by now
Love the Rescue Timer, especially on the hybrid rubber but the Pro Mare in blue is my favorite, they have a fairly low profile in Europe too.
Came close to purchasing this SAR. Think i ended buying either the Bremont or another Prospex though. Strapped the colorful Towson North today.
Sell the Bremont. Buy this instead.
It’s the watch I am wearing. Why? Solid

Rubber after many years of use will deteriorate. Not good if you want the watch to last a long long time.
not a concern.
@@duntrolling8876 how come not a concern ?

@@watch_a_watch you strike me horrendously immature resorting to that kind of language in a discussion about wristwatches. bizarre.

hi, do you happen to know the crystal's thickness?
Hi, specifications show crystal is 4mm!
@@ramiller2187 It is but you wouldn't know it. looking at it on the wrist there is no way to tell its so much thicker than is the usual standard.
