What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 36mm

Owners widely praise the Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 36mm for its exceptional legibility, featuring large hour markers and MaraGlo lume. The watch is noted for its comfortable wearability and competent Swiss-made Selitta SW200-1 automatic movement, offering 300-meter water resistance and a sapphire crystal. Some enthusiasts find the price of $1,380 USD on rubber to be excessive, particularly compared to past models or other brands, and the Spartan bracelet is described as lacking refinement. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Marathon OSAR-D Automatic 36mm a reliable and functional tool watch, with its clear dial and robust build being the primary draws.

anOrdain Model 2 OT

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 OT for its exquisite, handcrafted vitreous enamel dial and harmonious design. The 36mm steel case is noted for its simple, rugged field watch inspiration, and the winding experience is described as exceptionally smooth. Some reviewers flag a low 5atm water resistance and noticeable glare on the crystal, while others mention the lack of a seconds hand and limited lume. The 36mm case size is perceived differently, with some finding it wears larger and others smaller than expected. Overall, the consensus is that the anOrdain Model 2 OT is a highly regarded piece for its artistic dial and craftsmanship at its price point.
