Well new to me that is! I have been trying to expand my hobbies so I started by getting a Seiko I have worn for the last 6 months and wanted something new. So I headed over to Poshmark (it’s one of the best kept secrets!) and started scooping around and making some offers. I set my budget at 500 and was looking at Citizens, Tag, and Luminox (bad idea now I have realized.) and stumbled upon this guy. It was originally listed as a Marathon GSAR but I now realize I believe it to be the TSAR model. Any way it landed and I took it to swap the battery out and she is running great it appears, still glows to! I got it for $400 so I hope I did ok, came with the factory Marathon band I switched out for a Maratac I got from County Commn in preparation to try and match my new Benchmade. I figured this would be a decent step up from the Seiko, I think from here I will save for a Seamaster.

Today has been a good day! Anything in particular to note about these watches?

Thanks!




With the Seiko.

Nice watch, congrats. I have an original SAR that has had the shit beat out of it for 20 years, and it still keeps going. They're great tool watches, and cool looking to boot.

I imagine a GSAR wouldn't have a battery.

Good score.

Nice and a good deal.

They're crazy expensive from Marathon.

Marathon SARs are so cool, I just can't get myself to pony up the $2500 for the Anthracite GSAR I want.

Nice find!
