USGI Marathon automatic

[leemozoid]

This one is FS on another forum I frequent.

Seller states, "I have a brand new in box Marathon US Government marked automatic watch in black ballistic nylon straps. It comes with all original papers, a 10% off coupon from the Marathon watch company, a green ballistic nylon strap and a Nato style olive green leather strap."

Price is $500. Thoughts?

36mm Officer's Mechanical (GPM) on Nylon DEFSTAN

Marathon's Officer's Watch features a case diameter of 39mm, a thickness of 11mm, and 16mm lug width, making it perfect size for everyday wear. Commonly known as the Officer’s Field Watch Mechanical (OFM) or Stainless Steel General Purpose Mechanical (GPM-SS).

Same one? Not much of a deal in my opinion. I know nothing about the watch itself, but someone should here and advise. Other than the two additional NATO's which are about 40 bucks a piece, you're saving 10 bucks.

Nope, those are the same as the Field Mechanical (GP). Much cheaper in real life than that.

Thanks all. Seems high even with the full kit and USGI markings. I'll move on.
