Marathon's GSAR has long been associated with the U.S. Marine Corps, and reference WW194006SS-0209 makes that connection explicit. This is the Official USMC edition of the 41mm Government Search and Rescue automatic, with a matte black dial, a brushed 316L stainless steel case and a steel bracelet.

The GSAR was developed to Canadian Government search and rescue requirements and was issued to the Marines, so this edition isn't a costume. It is the real tool, with the features that made it the most storied watch in Marathon's SAR family: a 300m case sealed by a screw-down crown with guards, a sapphire crystal, a 120-click unidirectional bezel sized for gloves, and tritium gas tubes on every hour marker and hand. A Swiss Sellita SW200-1 automatic with Incabloc shock absorbers powers it.

For Marines, veterans and their families, the USMC GSAR is a meaningful way to wear that connection every day. For everyone else, it is a dive watch whose design was shaped by people who needed it to work. The steel bracelet gives it the solid, substantial feel that this edition deserves.
