All about the MARATHON 36mm MSAR Medium Diver Automatic – WW194026SS
Iconic Precision for Extreme Situations
Commonly known as the GSAR – Government Search and Rescue – this model is considered the most traditional and established within Marathon's SAR collection. The GSAR is not just a tool, but a symbol of reliability and robustness in extreme conditions. Designed for professional rescue workers and military use, it combines uncompromising technical quality with a functional, practical design.
Swiss Engineering at its Heart
Inside the GSAR operates a precise automatic movement with mechanical self-winding, manufactured in Switzerland. The proven SW200-1 caliber from Sellita Watch Co. SA, based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, is used. Equipped with 26 jewels, Incabloc shock protection, and a maximum power reserve of 41 hours, this movement guarantees consistent and long-lasting performance – even under the most difficult conditions. With a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, the watch is not only precise but also pleasantly smooth in the movement of the second hand.
Robust Construction, Made for Action
The case is made of brushed 316L stainless steel, known for its corrosion resistance and durability. With a diameter of 36 mm, a height of 14 mm, and a lug-to-lug length of 43.5 mm, the GSAR offers compact but extremely resilient dimensions – ideal for daily use in challenging conditions. The screw-down crown ensures additional water resistance, achieving a water resistance of 300 meters (30 ATM). The bezel is unidirectional rotating and equipped with 120 clicks and a MaraGlo-illuminated marker – an essential detail for diving operations or precise underwater timekeeping.
Clear Readability Day and Night
The matte dial emphasizes the functional character of the watch. The indexes as well as the hour, minute, and second hands are equipped with self-luminous tritium tubes, which remain constantly visible even without external light sources. Thanks to this technology, reliable readability in complete darkness is guaranteed. The date display is placed at 4:30 to keep the dial symmetrical and clearly structured.
Adaptable with Versatile Strap Options
To meet the most diverse requirements, the GSAR can be combined with various straps. It comes standard with a black rubber strap including a stainless steel pin buckle. Alternatively, a solid stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp is also available, which provides additional stability and a high-quality wearing experience.

FAQs
About David from WATCHDAVID
My name is David, and I've been deeply involved with watches for many years – not just as a dealer, but primarily as a tester, photographer, and classifier.
Since 2018, I’ve been running WATCHDAVID as an independent watch project featuring reviews, videos, and real-world wearing experiences. Many of the watches you'll find here have been on my own wrist – often for extended periods.
WATCHDAVID.SHOP is intentionally personal. I only sell watches that I genuinely stand behind – no anonymous mass-produced goods, no dropshipping, no "quick trends." Experience, transparency, and honest assessment are paramount to me.
And yes: I am not an anonymous seller. I enjoy good food, sneakers, and photography – and I have a proven weakness for Kinder Chocolate.
If you have any questions or are unsure, feel free to contact me directly. I will respond personally.
Shipping & Insurance
Within Germany and the EU, shipping is free of charge. Shipping is handled by DHL and insured up to €500, €2,500 or €25,000, depending on the watch's value. The watches are therefore always sufficiently insured.
You can find the delivery time in the description and/or below the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after an order is placed, while others are brand new and, for example, will only be available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...
Revocation & Return Shipping
You can revoke your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.
I will cover the return shipping costs for you.
IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself; I will send you the free return label.
To do this, please simply contact me. david@watchdavid.com
It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of any signs of wear. After a successful inspection, I will refund the purchase price to you. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.
Authenticity & Condition of the Watches
I guarantee that all watches I offer are exclusively new, original goods. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly state otherwise (e.g., so-called PHOTO WATCHES).
As an official dealer, I exclusively offer authentic products. These are offered in their original packaging, with a warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in a so-called Full Set. Some deliver more, some less...
Warranty & Service
All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which is usually two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.
Should a warranty claim arise, I will take care of shipping the watch to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and will also organize its return to you. In addition, I will handle all communication with the manufacturer, so you don't have to worry about anything.
Even after the warranty period has expired, I will remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.
No answer received?
You contacted me, via the contact form, about the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you didn't receive a reply?
Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and crazier and are sending more and more to spam.
I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it may take a little longer. As a rule, I reply within a few minutes or hours.
Something can also slip through for me. Or the technology isn't working as it should. Feel free to contact me again. david@watchdavid.com
Mechanics - Sometimes things can go wrong
Before I ship your order, I carefully inspect each watch for visible defects.
However, should a problem arise, such as a defect during transit, please inform me immediately. I will do everything in my power to find a quick solution and ensure your satisfaction.
My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
