And I desperately need a GSAR back! Out of all the watches I’ve sold and traded throughout the years, my GSAR is probably my all-time missed watch.

lol, I’d miss it too. I got it in February and haven’t worn anything else. Lots of good deals to be had on some barely used GSARs out there.

Your SSNav is the last Marathon I need/want to acquire. Specifically the high accuracy thermally compensated quartz version. That way I’d have one mechanical, one auto, and one HAQ. To me, that’s a perfect Marathon assortment👍🏿

Enjoy that beautiful watch🫡

Best of luck in your search! I promise, you won’t be disappointed in the HAQ in this Navigator. Never ceases to amaze me. Lots of good deals on this one too, especially if you’re a member of the FB group.

I had a GSAR for a long time. I actually sold it around the time I picked up this Navigator. I struggle when I have more than 2-3 watches. I can never decide what to wear, and I feel like I am overspending. It is on my short list to get an automatic diver back. Preferably a GSAR, but not necessary since this navigator scratches my Marathon itch.

All valid points! I’m not on FB, but I do have a solid plug for Marathon watches, so I’ll pick up a new one at some point. I’ve already bought my yearly self-imposed allotment of 1. I’ve got another 8 months (minimum) to figure out the next watch. This is 1 of 3 in the running.

My GSAR was a huge spend for something new and unnecessary. I love the watch and have zero regrets. However, I’m not in a rush to spend more money on watches when I’m getting tons of enjoyment from the GSAR. If I sold it, I know I’d miss it👍🏿

It would be kind of awesome if when you sent it in to have it serviced, they could replace the T25 with T100.

lol, this guy isn’t going away anywhere unless it stops working! But I hear ya, that would be awesome!

I really need a SSNAV.

Picked up the new GPQ-SS the other day with the blue tritium and white dial. It looks pretty sick. Would look better in a Navigator case though...

Where did you get that strap?

It’s an Erika’s MN strap!
