Navigator - 41mm SSNAV-D AUTO

Designed in Canada and manufactured in Switzerland, Marathon watches are designed to meet some of the toughest MIL SPEC standards out there. Even if you don’t find yourself regularly jumping out of planes and undergoing rapid pressure/altitude changes, the Navigator can withstand these harsh environments with ease. Originally created to accommodate pilots, parachutists, and law enforcement, Marathon’s Navigator still makes an excellent addition to the everyman’s collection. After all, who doesn’t like a good, tough military watch design.

And now, after years of requests from fans of the brand, the Navigator finally comes in a 41mm asymmetrical matte stainless steel case. The crown is now screw down, allowing a bump in water resistance from 60m to 100m. It's matte steel at the 3 o’clock position and nestles in the case side. The glass is scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. It still features a bi-directional 12-hr bezel for tracking a second timezone while remaining 13mm thick. 

The dial is clean and legible, featuring both a 12- and 24-hour scale. Each hour marker is highlighted with an inset tritium tube that will glow in the dark without any exposure to light, thanks to the radioactive gas inside. Running around the dial, you’ll find a bi-directional 12-hour bezel that can be used to count hours or track a different time zone. It features a standard hour/minute hand set with a red-tipped seconds hand. And nestled between the 4 and 5 hour marker is a date window.

Inside the case, is the Sellita SW200-1 movement with Incabloc Shock Absorber. This reliable and tough movement beats at 28,000 bph, with a 38 hour power reserve and is a perfect choice for the Go Anywhere, Do Anything abilities of the Stainless Steel Navigator Automatic.
