AUTHENTIC MARATHON U.S GOVERNMENT MIL-W-46374F GENTS MILITARY WRISTWATCH

MIL-W-46374F Watches Mechnical 17 Jewels Swiss Manual Winding with Hacking System

With MIL-PRF-46374F a new idea in U.S. Military purchasing was introduced, the Performance Standard. The military no longer specifies endless detail on the design of the watch, they just state what performance tests it has to meet. This gives manufacturers more leeway to be innovative and hopefully gets a better product for the troops at lower cost. Note that some watches under the prior standard have been procured this way, under MIL-PRF-46374F.

In the F standard, issued February 2005, the most noticeable change is on the dial where all extraneous markings have been added including U.S Governent. The H3 and radiation symbol remain so users can focus on the hands and numbers. The case back has similar markings to earlier models.

MIL-PRF-46374G Watches Mechnical 17 Jewels Swiss Manual Winding with Hacking System

With MIL-PRF-46374G a new idea in U.S. Military purchasing was introduced, the Performance Standard. The military no longer specifies endless detail on the design of the watch, they just state what performance tests it has to meet. This gives manufacturers more leeway to be innovative and hopefully gets a better product for the troops at lower cost. Note that some watches under the prior standard have been procured this way, under MIL-PRF-46374F.

In the G standard, issued 12 November 1999, the most noticeable change is on the dial where all extraneous markings have been removed. Only the H3 and radiation symbol remain so users can focus on the hands and numbers. The case back has similar markings to earlier models.

Under MIL-PRF-46374G, the Navigator watch is now called Type III, Class 1, new terminology for the Type 6 of the prior standard. Typical markings for these watches:

CAGE 38775

The CAGE Code refers to Marathon. Some watches of lower grades have been produced by reference to MIL-W-46374G, not a performance spec. In 2000, Stocker & Yale withdrew from the military watch and compass business and sold that division of the company to Cammenga & Associates, Inc. a maker of the U.S. Army Lensatic Compass among other products. Cammenga later stopped making watches leaving Marathon the sole supplier of watches to the U.S. Military.

HISTORY OF MARATHON WATCH COMPANY

The Marathon Watch Company manufactures watches in La Chaux-deFonds, Switzerland, and supplies them to government and military entities since early 1900’s. Most models contain self-luminous tritiumm tubes for reading ease in the dark. Marathon watches are typically not available to the general public, but may be obtained through surplus re-sellers.

The company has garnered a substantial following among watch aficionados for its high-performance diving watch--officially 6645-21-558-0133 and informally known the Marathon SAR (Search and Rescue)-- which was commissioned by the Canadian Defence Force for its search and rescue teams. Other models include the Navigator, intended for pilots and paratroopers, and a General Purpose variant for military and law enforcement field use.
