What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Marathon GSAR (Government Search & Rescue) Diver's Automatic

The Marathon GSAR (Government Search & Rescue) Diver's Automatic is widely praised for its legibility, comfort, and exceptional tritium illumination, with reviewers highlighting its utilitarian, military-equipment feel and a 41mm case size considered ideal. Owners appreciate its grippy bezel and the 300 meters of water resistance provided by the screw-down crown, deeming it a solid value for a Swiss-made tool watch. Some owners report quality control issues, with one user needing to warranty two watches, and another notes the GSAR wears taller than other models, leading to occasional bumping. The reliable ETA 2824-A2 movement is a consistent feature. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon GSAR (Government Search & Rescue) Diver's Automatic highly for its bright tritium lume and robust, no-nonsense tool watch design.

Mr Jones Watches Beam me up!

Mr Jones Watches Beam me up! is widely praised for its fun, unique design and conversational appeal, with owners highlighting the sharp, color-by-color printed dial and layered dial that creates an interesting technical build. The UFO beam indicating minutes and a piglet indicating hours are noted as appealing to sci-fi fans, and the watch is described as a satisfying daily wear and a great conversation starter. Some owners wish the brand would update its lugs, and one user finds the pig hour marker off-putting. The watch uses a quartz movement, and legibility of the hour pig can be difficult, with the minute reading being more of a range than precise. Overall, owners rate Mr Jones Watches Beam me up! highly for its fun, unique design and conversational appeal.
