I have a Marathon JSAR II from the June 2010 contract in TZ Near Mint (93% - 96%) condition. I recently received the watch but just didn't bond with it - the bezel/dial ratio really bugs me, I don't know why the bezel is so narrow on such a big watch. Also, even though I like big watches, the design of this one is such that it doesn't sit right on my small wrist.
There are some strap changing marks under the lugs, one is particularly bad, that's the one that is pictured. There are also a couple of faint hairlines here and there but that's it; the rest of the watch is in mint condition, the crystal and bezel insert are clean and unmarked. The previous (original) owner never wore the watch on the factory strap and neither have I - in fact, I've never worn the watch at all since the factory strap can't get small enough for my tiny wrist.
I also just received a lightly used black Isofrane which I had planned to wear on the JSAR. I will sell it along with the watch if anyone is interested; I currently have no plans to sell the strap alone. The Isofrane has the IN buckle and comes with the box and certificate of authenticity. I will toss in a couple of Sinn-type shoulderless springbars which are the only type I would trust on a watch this heavy.
I'm asking $450>$425 for the JSAR alone or $525>$500>TRADED for the watch and the Isofrane. Prices include shipping in the U.S. via USPS Priority Mail with insurance, paid via Paypal.
As for trades, here are some things that would interest me, cash +/- as appropriate:
- Spyderco Matriarch 2 or Warrior
- Benchmade 62
- Microtech Combat Troodon, D/E, PE blade
- MOD CQD Mk. I, PE blade
- The bigger Executive Edge knives, like the Outdoorsman or Fazendeiro
- Lights: particularly interested in small, powerful lights like the Jetbeam PC10 or maybe a handheld HID light like the FireFoxes FF3
- Casio GWA1000-1A
- Might be interested in a Garmin handheld GPS unit, still not sure what I would do with it.
Please PM me if you are interested. Thanks.
