The files
Marathon GSAR Arctic.
A retired paramedic who now works as a lifeguard, specialising in open water at triathlons, wearing a Marathon GSAR Arctic.
Marathon OSAR-D Arctic Dial
A Sergeant with a Sheriff's Office Training and Development unit, wearing a Marathon OSAR-D with the arctic dial.
Marathon MSAR
A Coast Guard sailor aboard USCGC Glen Harris, photographed at the LRAD hailing device on the cutter's deck during counterterrorism and narcotics interdiction operations in the Gulf of Oman. Kit up, sidearm holstered, one of the small boats' watchstanders in an overseas patrol area most people never associate with the Coast Guard. On the wrist through the gloves is his Marathon MSAR. Return submission from this handle, and the setting only got farther from home.
Marathon GSAR 41mm automatic
A deputy with a large Arizona sheriff's office, three years into wearing the Marathon GSAR as his duty watch, photographed off the clock on a trail in the mountains of Montana. His account: it's been pretty banged up and has seen a lot, but it's never failed him. Countless hours on shift, and now a lake in the high country on his own time, same watch for all of it.
Marathon GSAR
End of watch. A Toledo police officer closes out a midnight shift, the gear still on, the sun coming up. On the wrist is his Marathon GSAR, a Search and Rescue diver built to military specification, with tritium tubes that glow on their own and never need charging. The phrase means the end of a shift, and in this line of work it carries a heavier meaning too. Either way, he made it to morning.
