Owners find the watch comfortable and impressive, noting its 41mm sandblasted steel case with an asymmetrical design, bi-directional GMT bezel with excellent action, sapphire crystal, and 100m water resistance with a screw-down crown. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Quartz highly for its robust tool watch design and exceptional accuracy at its price point.

Owners widely praise the Garrick S3 Timepiece for its bespoke experience and spectacular finished product, with one owner finding it beautiful. Reviewers note the hand-frosted brass dial and open-worked dial options, as well as the high level of manual finishing. The manually wound UT-G04 and in-house DB-G07 calibres are regulated to less than 3 seconds per day and offer a 45-hour power reserve. One reviewer flags that the central hands lack sufficient contrast for quick time reading. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Garrick S3 Timepiece highly for its impressive finishing and bespoke nature.
