Utilizing the smaller sized version of Marathon’s diver’s watches making it perfect for someone who wants a tough, reliable, and military issue dive watch that is smaller yet just as powerful as its larger brothers.
The Diver’s Quartz Medium is a dive watch certified for water resistance down to 30 ATM - 300 meters (1000 feet) underwater. The Diver’s Quartz Medium uses a scratch resistant sapphire glass crystal to maintain maximum legibility. Built from 316L surgical grade stainless steel, the Diver’s Quartz Medium is a tough watch that is comfortable for people with smaller wrists.
The Diver’s Quartz Medium is made in La Chaux de Fonds Switzerland to guarantee the highest level of quality and accuracy in manufacturing.

The Diver’s Quartz Medium uses self contained Tritium gas tubes to ensure constant visibility in low light situations, a Tritium gas tube is placed on each hour marker as well as the hour and minute hands. Tritium tubes are self illuminating gas tubes which contain an isotope of hydrogen that does not dull in brightness.
To maintain proper tracking for maintenance, each Diver’s Quartz Medium comes individually numbered and engraved with a serial number.
Agree with what you said about the white dial and legibility. For how busy it is, it’s laid out extremely well and easy to read. I have the 41mm version. The tritium is awesome. Always the perfect brightness.
Great video. I’ve been curious about this watch for a long time. You did a excellent job of explaining the size difference. I found the video useful because I was wondering if the 36mm would be too small or feminine. You definitely sold me on the watch. This is a high compliment as I am a very seasoned and picky consumer. Nice work. Curr
Scout The Boxer, Puppies and Goats very happy to hear you’re taking the leap based on my review. It’s fantastic - I shamelessly wish I had both the auto and the quartz so you have one more fun decision to make. Can’t wait to hear how you like it when you get it on wrist. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
I'm a stone mason, looking for a reasonably sized heavy duty field watch.. I was leaning towards the Tudor Ranger, but not crazy about wearing a $4000 watch during hard manual labor.. you've convinced me to check out this Beauty & The Beast of a watch.
Much appreciated 🙏🏾
Great review! You convince me and I'm glad to have found your video. This brand is bit less popular in Europe but I love it... I firstly wanted to purchase their 39mm GPM automatic! But now I really love this one too even it's more expensive and with a quartz model
thank you again
Very nice looking watch. Love the multi color look to the face. Great review 👍
It’s an exciting dial for sure, the depth of it alone is worth the price of admission, you get lost in it and yet it’s somehow easy to get in, read the time and get out.
Enjoyed the video! I love my black dial 42mm but think I will have to try out the white one too!
Craig Bess highly recommend! The black dial makes me curious so perhaps we both have a marathon left to run
A tip for screw bracelets... A 1 second blast from a butane torch or lighter makes all the difference getting them out.
Really good video! I just got the auto version and I love it! I’m sure the tritium is brighter with the white dial.
Nice video. You turned me on to the 36mm Lorier. Had never seen that. Right on.
5:11 I believe the clasp you have is actually the Canadian Armed Forces and not the DOD one
looks good on you. thanks for the video!
Mark Kosmala thanks, my friend!
Got the 41mm variant w/ rubber strap recently and can recommend.
Great review.
very nice finishing on the case
I love the fit and finish. It’s shocking I don’t wear it daily because it’s perfect
Excellent 👍
I was waiting for the bigger version (I have a 7" wrist") but I think I'm just going to pull the trigger on the MSAR auto and save some money. Thanks for reviewing!
That’s a decision you won’t regret. Going for the bracelet or the strap? Easy going either direction with the drilled lugs. Looking forward to hearing how it goes
@@watches. normally I'd get the bracelet but I've already got an Explorer and Sinn 104 with bracelets, I know I'd never wear the MSAR with a bracelet
@@dustindodge5974 that’s a perfect three watch collection for anyone there. Sinn and explorer are perfect explorer watches yet the Marathon gives you that same vibe without worrying about scuffing or scratching such beautiful pieces of jewelry
I want to see more dive watches in 36mm. Love it
The nite brand do the t100 tritium watches and they have got to be one of the brightest watches I’ve seen 👍👍
Good review! But I do believe the white dial has a military purpose in extreme bright conditions especially around snow where a black dial is not as visible with high reflections. Not 100% sure though. Love the watch Thks !
Makes sense! Thanks for watching and stopping by the channel!
I don’t have problems in winter time with dark dial either ;)
No, this dial variant is not currently mil-spec.
Great comparison, love these size watches, however what is the weight of the marathon!! Also how long does the battery last,?
Just curious which 2 tools did you use?
I really like the proportions of this watch. The numerals are pretty small on the black dial.
It’s just perfect on wrist. It’s got such a great dimensional balance for anyone to wear.
Always sold out, especially the auto, new sub
Wrist size?
In the video, what was the model of the watch without strap?
Can you be more specific?
@@watches. what's the model of the watch, the one without the strap in the beginning of the video
@@watches. what's the watch at 0:56?
Information is wrong. It’s NOT called “arctic” because it’s white, it’s white because it’s designed for dial visibility in bright, snowy conditions, like … in the Arctic. It was designed for The Canadian Rangers.
Thank you for your comment, my friend. I am duly corrected thanks for the data
How big is your wrist?
What's your wrist size?
6.8-7 inches
wait this is a 36mm? how? how big is your wrist?
6.8inch wrist. The width and bezel make the watch wear bigger on wrist
@@watches. I'm glad you answered this question! I have a 7" wrist but really want the white TSAR which is only in 36mm. Large watches are often overrated. I wore a 36mm Bulova GMT during two tours in Gulf War I and it was perfect for my missions. Thanks for the excellent video and review. Spydercos and Marathons to you my friend.
@@Watchtrain absolutely excellent comment. Thanks for stopping by!
Protech Malibu - lol
1 thing you didn't know.. the automatic, way better 😏
It’s too small for your wrist. Also, the thickness is not properly proportioned on the 36. You’ve got to at least get 41 if not the 46. Quartz movement is worth about $30, so therefore it’s grossly overpriced. You’ve gotta get automatic when spending this much.
Its not small at all on his wrist. You are delusional.
@@randomdude7345 the majority of people who buy the 36 end up returning it for the 41. Watches always appear large on camera. 36 in person looks like a women’s size.
So no quartz watch should cost more than what? $50?
Definitely shouldn’t cost over $1000
Some people think Invicta watches are too small on wrist.😂
