Frequent flyers, remote teams and anyone with family in another time zone will appreciate what the 12-hour bezel on the Marathon SSNAV WW194001SS-0803 can do. This 41mm Steel Navigator pairs a sterile black dial with an extra-long 12-inch ballistic nylon strap.

Using the bezel as a second time zone takes seconds. Rotate it so the bezel numeral matches the hour in your other location, and from then on the hour hand reads local time on the dial and remote time on the bezel. Because it turns in both directions with 90 positive clicks, you can adjust it quickly either way when you land somewhere new. Marathon designed this feature into the Navigator with Kelly Air Force Base in 1986 for U.S. Air Force crews.

The rest of the package is just as travel-ready. The ETA F06.412 PreciDrive thermocompensated quartz is accurate to roughly ten seconds per year, so you are not chasing drift between trips. Tritium illumination makes the dial readable on a dim red-eye without pressing anything. The 316L stainless steel case is 11mm thin, sealed to 10 ATM by a screw-down crown. And the 12-inch one-piece ballistic nylon strap offers extra length for larger wrists or wearing the watch over a sleeve.
