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.
Grand Seiko SBGA375 owners praise its classic, subtle design and the engineering of its Spring Drive movement, with one noting it "does not fail to deliver what they are known for." The dial offers good legibility, with polished side bevels on the hour markers catching light well. However, one owner scuffed the bezel within a week, and another questioned if a lug was missing.
