Marathon Glow-in-the-Dark Unmounted Wrist Compass
Marathon Glow-in-the-Dark Unmounted Wrist Compass
Marathon Watch Company traces its roots to 1904, when Hersh Wein founded Weinstrum Watch. His son Morris Wein founded Marathon in Montreal in 1939, and by 1941 the brand was supplying wristwatches and timing instruments to Allied forces.
Today Marathon is headquartered in Vaughan, Canada, and assembles its watches in its own factory in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. It still develops and supplies timepieces under contract to the Canadian, U.S. and British governments and other Allied forces.
The range is built around three families: the Search and Rescue (SAR) dive watches, the Navigator pilot watches and the General Purpose field watches, lit with tritium gas tubes and MaraGlo luminescence.
Crafted by Marathon, this wrist compass shares the rugged build of the General Purpose series. Its black dial boasts luminescent MaraGlo paint, aiding navigation in low-light situations, while remaining visible for up to 8 hours after charging. Designed for SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape), it's water-resistant up to 30 meters, housed in high-impact fibreshell resin, and sports a nylon strap for versatile attachment to 16mm lug-width watches. Ideal for critical missions in extreme conditions.
