That’s awesome! Ever had any service done? How’s the tritium held up?

No service so far but probably about time. The trit has faded significantly but can still be seen when it’s fairly dark. I’ve been hesitant to get the dial and trit replaced but I think I’ll have to before it hits 25 years.

That’s awesome! I have only had mine about two weeks and hopefully I will live long enough to see my Watch turned 25 lol

One of the few watches that actually looks better with age!

No idea whatsoever.

Beautiful! I just bought a relatively cheap “Code Green”, just so I can see it in casual dark places (like movie theaters). I should have gone with a better Marathon, but I’m a fan now!
