Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 46mmvsSeiko Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition

The Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 46mm is widely regarded as a rugged and legible timepiece, featuring a familiar geometric dial with MaraGlo lume and a white dial with applied hour markers that enhance legibility. Owners and reviewers note its 300-meter water resistance and the reliable Swiss-made Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement with improved shock protection. The watch is described as large, thick, and heavy, with some owners finding it comfortable on the wrist while others note its substantial presence, particularly at a table. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Marathon OSAR-D (Original SAR with Date) Automatic 46mm for its rugged build and excellent legibility.

The Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition features a 40mm case, 300m water resistance, and a 72-hour power reserve from the Calibre 6R55 movement, with a new grey bezel insert and a wave-patterned silvery-white dial. Owners find the watch attractive and the large case wears well without feeling bulky. However, some consider the price of €1900 for a 6R54 movement with an accuracy of +25/-15 seconds per day to be too high, and the production run of 6000 units is not seen as a true limited edition. Overall, owners find the Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition aesthetically pleasing with good wearability, but express concerns regarding its value proposition and movement accuracy for the price.
