Marathon Military Navigator Quartz Date Review
When a watch clicks for you, the details of it don't really matter. It could be an inexpensive quartz watch or an epically expensive grand-complication. It could be plastic or it could be platinum. You just know when you strap it on your wrist, that it's right for you. Ideally, it's something you can afford, so you don't have to stay awake at night dreaming about a 100k watch you'll likely never own. More often than not, it's something in between; not outrageously priced, but just out of reach. Well, recently I had such an experience with a watch that is quite affordable, quartz and plastic. That watch is the Marathon Military Navigator Quartz Date.Marathon watches were born of a collaboration between a Canadian watch distributor, the Wein Brothers, and one of the oldest Swiss watch brands, Gallet, whose origins date back to the late 1400's.

Torn
Attachment 630452Hello all, I need some assistance. I am torn between the rose gold 15202 vs the 44 rose gold novelty. I have owned both a 15300 and love the style and bracelet. I have owned a SS Diver so I am familiar with the wear of the royal oak offshore. At this Moment I have an opportunity to pick one up at a great price. Both are BNIB and one is sealed. What are your opinions and experiences on either of these pieces. Your opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance AlexI cannot seem to add both images.

Sales person invited to tour PP factory
I visited my local AD yesterday to enquire about the 5320. The young sales person was very friendly and we got chatting. Mentioned that she's still learning about Patek and has only been in the watch industry for about a year. And then she casually mentioned that she's going to Geneva shortly to tour Patek's factory. So I replied that she must be a high-performer since it's a real privilege. She responded that because she speaks Chinese she's been selected along with a few clients. In my experience, most sales are Chinese these days, so it's not a unique attribute.Question: is it common for young sales ppl and clients to tour Patek's factory? Is it something that all sales ppl do as part of their training? Does this extend to other brands?Note:They have not received any 5320G yet but the first one is due in Sep. There's interest (expected) but I will see it when it comes in.5711/1A - 4/5 yr waitlistSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
