    Nice Mark! I can't imagine a collab partner with more creds than Marathon! I have owned the original black polycarbonate case / acrylic crystal / black dial version for several years. I wear it on a more colorful after market one piece nylon strap. The watch has been amazingly accurate. It is running perfectly on the original factory installed battery. Of a ridiculously large watch collection this has by far the most wrist time, as it's my night time watch! The tritium is as bright as when I first purchased the watch. My one wish is that Marathon offer a regular time elapsed bezel which day to day would be more useful than dual time for my needs. Congratulations.

    • @JM-gy6zb

      What I like about these bezels is that they can do both pretty well. They include minute markings up to 20 minutes which helps the timing bezel utility.

    Mark so glad you chose Marathon a long standing family owned Canadian 🇨🇦 watch company for your collaboration, being a proud Canadian I purchased one of the early Navigator originals from your company and it is one of my favourite pieces in my collection and faithfully ticks away with F06 jewelled movement very accurately. Biggest improvement ( other than the sapphire crystal) is the battery hatch. Much better than having to open the case and possibly compromising the water resistance. The white dial and blue hands and markers are killer! Hope they sellout for you in a week. Cheers and Congrats…MikeR.

  • @amomentarygenius
    @amomentarygenius 5 місяців тому +3

    Bought it the second I got the text. I love the concept of how the white dial and blue tritium tubes subtly represent the LIW logo. It's a unique way of having the LIW logo on the dial but keeping the dial clean.

    Really wonderful to see tritium as opposed to standard lume, that’s certainly a big plus to the watch. Unfortunately the watch is too big for my little wrist but I’d love to see an Islander 38 or 39mm with tritium. Not THAT I would drool for

    Hey Marc, you not only deserve this Collab, you earned it! BUT, I would like to see your Logo on the Dial or Islander writen on the Dial, not just only on the back of the watch. I would have bought it instantly with a litle bit of LIW on the Dial... For example instead of the H3 a Islander Logo, which also would perfectly balance the radioactive logo in terms of symetry

  • @LS1007

  • @Nefville

  • @nickkincanon4582
    @nickkincanon4582 5 місяців тому +1

    Absolutely fire. My only wish would be a timing bezel, but course, that’s not in the DNA of the Navigator. Slobs like me don’t travel anywhere, so not a big GMT bezel guy. Although easy enough to translate I suppose. For anyone who hasn’t experienced, Tritium is awesome.

  • @FuquaRomeo
    @FuquaRomeo 5 місяців тому

    Marc, Once this one sells out, will you please release an Anthrocite GSAR with your blue tritium. I would jump on that one!!!
    And, I would love to see your logo or "Islander" on the dial.
    Looks great.

  • @Texas240
    @Texas240 5 місяців тому

    Mark, I'm glad they're a limited run so I don't have to worry about you selling enough to know that there's a market for tritium lume AND blue lume.
    I've pointed out several Islanders that were begging for BGW9 (more bluish) instead of C3 (green).
    And I've pointed out several Islanders that had a great dial face and index design where tritium indecis would have worked great (similar to the way Ball Watch tries to work tritium into "classic" or normal looking watches).
    Anyway, since these will sell out (and not a huge marathon or quartz fan), I don't need to buy it to show support for the product and can continue eagerly awaiting a BGW9 and /or tritium Islander in a 42mm+ size and diver style. (black DLC and orange-ish tritium is also sharp!)
