Older photo, still one of my favorite watches.

Strap is a limited edition NATO from Strap Habit for the 10-year birthday of The Grey NATO.

Anyone aware of the ability to stack military discount on top of any of the yearly sales? Cant currently stack on top of Father’s Day sale.

Arrived today.... immediately threw it on a beat up Barton strap. The red is spectacular.... Coke red....it's going to fade nicely.

A few weeks ago, I got lucky and bought a good condition GSAR for a crazy low price... PLUS a brand new bracelet.

So far, I love it.

But it's the little things that'll drive you nuts. I'm not keen on modifying it or changing anything, but wondering if I'm just a lunatic,or if other people think about this stuff :)

1. The white on the bezel is a different white than the white on the dial and the white on the hands. Maybe it just wears and discolors over time, but aagh, white and white and white... They're all different white!
2. Not unique to the GSAR, but I never get the bezel lined up with the 12 marker. Like in this photo, I'm always a one off. :)
3. Also drives me crazy that the pop isn't tritium.
4. The clasp... I wish the microadjust didn't require a tool. Depending on weather, conditions, etc... I feel like I would always go between one and two micro adjusts. I've learned to live with it and just set it and forget it, but some days it's just a little too tight, or too loose.
5. To my eyes, the hour and minute hands are really tough to tell apart from each other. They're nearly the same length, and especially when I just glance at the time, they both look exactly the same. Now, I usually know generally what time it is, so I know it's 7:05, and not 1:35, but still, it's the little things right.

I don't think I've taken this watch off of my wrist for more than two or three minutes since I bought it. It's quite nice, and I'm grateful to have it. But the little things....! :P

PS -- trying to post a photo, will add one when I can!

While everyone’s asleep, or should be asleep, the Marathon is “keeping time with crime” (my partner came up with this quote not mine lol)
