What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic

The Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic is noted for its non-tritium dial option, though some owners prefer the 1-12 numeral layout found on other models. One owner found the 36mm size too small for their wrist. Overall, owners appreciate the Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic for its non-tritium dial option.

Norqain Freedom 60 GMT 40mm Ice Blue

The Norqain Freedom 60 GMT 40mm Ice Blue is widely praised for its comfortable 40mm size, clean dial design, discrete GMT display, and brilliant domed sapphire crystal. Owners and reviewers highlight the watch's great finish and the intuitive jumping local hour feature powered by a COSC-certified Kenissi NN20/2 movement. The movement offers a 70-hour power reserve and has demonstrated accuracy of +2 seconds over a week. However, its 14.5mm thickness is noted as making it not a thin or small watch. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Norqain Freedom 60 GMT 40mm Ice Blue highly for its comfortable wearability, attractive summer blue dial, and reliable, accurate movement.
