Title: Military Issue Marathon 46374E Hand Wound Swiss Circa 1991

Description: MINT condition. Unused in the original packing material. Carrying ETA Swiss made 17j shock protected movements and having a fiberglass composite lightweight and highly durable water resistant case. This is a non hacking movement which is often used in much more expensive time pieces. The best part about these watches is the tritium gas filled tubes which are in the hands and on every indice. You can see them in the close-up photo and they are the brightest form of luminescence in the world. Note: After further study it appears that because of the age of this Mil watch (issued in 91) the Tritium has decayed somewhat and is not as bright as gas filled tubes on new watches. Fixed spring bars with the original issue one piece nylon strap means if one bar breaks you won't lose your watch. One wind will last about 42 hours. The small paper that comes with each watch says that these are accurate to about 90 seconds plus or minus per month which is extraordinary for a mechanical watch. I have put two or three on the timing machine and sure enough they all run with in 1-3 seconds a day. Measures 34 mm wide (not including the crown) x 40 mm long x 11 mm thick. {$99} {$69} Item #3740 SOLD OUT
