I'm amazed a big brand could produce such a poorly-wearing bracelet. See my opinion on the Marathon GSAR Bracelet and let me know what you think!

That's shocking. The pressed clasp has always been a red flag to my eyes. Shameful crap.

People have lost their damn minds. This clasp was good enough for Rolex for nearly 70 years. Until 2010 probably. This shit has never failed anybody or broken…ever. Maybe the thin stainless steel clasp is the better... Maybe the thick miled clasp is just overkill.?

My wrist and the bracelet managed to survive two tours to Afghanistan getting beat around on all sorts of things. It’s meant for harsh environments worn by serious people. People are insufferable around here.

Thank you for your service and for watching. Yep, I didn’t really like this bracelets although I think marathon watches are fantastic. Maybe I got a bad one?

For the price it's a shame. If it were a $10 bracelet, just as a place holder for a more complete one, I'd understand, but for $300+ it's incredible.

That sucks Sam. I would think that Marathon sould take the bracelet back. I have taken down sharp edges on a bracelet with a scotchbrite pad.

Yikes. Been looking to get a “deal” on a Marathon for a long time. Agree I wonder if it’s just QC issue but yeah that clasp is el cheapo. I had a sharp bracelet on a Phoibos, but I guess it was a one off, too.🤷🏼‍♂️

I had a Marathon Tsar on rubber strap but I'm more of a bracelet guy. Did a little research and found that the bracelet is not great and it costs over $300, I sold the Marathon and now the Helm Vanuatu Ti is my beater watch.

Hey! I’m going to be testing one type in an upcoming upload. But I like the uncle straps. They have sent in a few for review and the razor wire is my favorite.

I think a lot of channels are wary of this because they want to build relationships to get interviews and early insights on models, gear to test and stuff - but ultimately if I owned a watch company the praise I'd want to win is from the really independent "Say it as I see it" channels tbh. Keep going mate you're smashing it and you're on your way IMHO.@@CasualWatchReviews

You must have a girls wrist, I'm on my second Marathon JSAR and wore the first one for 10 years daily on the bracelet.

Hey. Assuming you are asking a genuine question here. What would wrist size have to do with the poor level of finishing and the cheap clasp on this bracelet? And could it be possible this bracelet got worse over time as a cost cutting measure or different supplier to Marathon?

I was beyond disappointed when I got mine. Bought the bracelet after I bought the watch on the rubber strap. Both sucked. It all came down to that clasp! Embarrassing!!! I only sport the GSAR on a Crown and Buckle heavy duty NATO.
