Two Americans

Two US military watches separated by almost 40 years.  Similarities show the bloodlines.  Benrus Type II Class A from November 1976 and Marathon GSAR February 2010 issue.

Marathon GSAR

I finally got around to getting one of these modern Marathon dive watches.  This is the GSAR or Government Search And Rescue dive watch.  It uses tritium gas tubes for illumination.  The dial style is based on the classic Type II arabic 12/24 hour dial.  I got mine from CountyComm.
