Marathon Arctic OSAR 41mm Automatic

The Marathon Arctic OSAR 41mm Automatic is noted for its comfortable wearability on wrists under 7 inches, with one owner finding the 41mm size perfect. Accuracy observations vary, with one owner reporting a consistent +1 second per day and another noting -20 seconds per day. The watch features a Sellita automatic movement and has dimensions of 14mm thickness and a 48mm lug-to-lug. Overall, owners appreciate the Marathon Arctic OSAR 41mm Automatic for its comfortable fit and Marathon's overall appeal.

Boldr Safari

Owners widely praise the Boldr Safari for its attractive dials, robust build with 200 meters of water resistance, and reliable Seiko movements. The California dial design is a frequent highlight, as is the strong lume. Some owners note the GMT variant offers full GMT functionality, while others point out the movement's date-only nature on certain models leads to a vestigial crown position. The animal artwork on the display caseback is a point of contention, with some finding it detracts from the view of the movement. Overall, owners rate the Boldr Safari highly for its value and distinctive design elements.
