This is the newest U.S. Military Pilot/Navigator's Watch by Marathon (MIL-PRF-46374G specification). 42x46 mm.  This is a current issue watch (manufactured in late 2008), USAF and USN, Tritium Tracer (Glass Tubes) Navigational Wristwatch that glows 20 times brighter than an ordinary luminous watch. This type of watch is current government issue to elite military, special operations and law enforcement units such as FBI and United States Marshals Service.  The design and reliability is the same as the legendary Navigator watch produced by Marathon in various forms since the late 1980s but now features a date window as well as red tipped seconds hand.  

The timepiece features a high quality Swiss made high precision jeweled Quartz Movement designed to withstand high G-forces and has a magnetic resistance of 1500 A/m. The watch is water resistant to 6 ATM (196 Ft). It is designed for maintaining accuracy at high altitude to 35,000 FT without compensating pressurization. This is the authentic 1st quality military item and not the commercial, military style "Navy Seals" watch available to the general public marketed by Luminox nor the watches manufactured by MB-Microtec (Mil-W-46374F copies).

This watch is powered by a NEW  Eveready Energizer^® 395 watch battery, and is accurate to +/- 21 seconds per month (mine is actually right on after many weeks!). By pulling the crown out, the second hand is stopped (hacked) for synchronization. 12 O'clock illuminated in red. Easy to read at night. Very lightweight and stylish. Watch is manufactured to MIL-46374G specifications. Stainless steel back is stamped as follows:

This is a great looking timepiece that is actual military issue and has met rigorous military specifications. It is not a factory second or government rejected watch.

The case is is made of an extremely durable black nylon/fiberglass composite material. The rotating outer bezel provides marking for a second time zone. The crystal is an aircraft quality lightweight Lexon material allowing for strength and scratch removal. The dial features the radioactive symbol (Tritium isotope). Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. When it decays, it emits beta particles (electrons) that do not penetrate skin, plastic, glass, etc. The electrons excite the coating on the vials, creating a bright green glow. It is a safe (but very expensive) method of illumination, and is used mainly in military watches and gun sights.

This is brand new and comes complete with black nylon flight strap (watch can be worn on the wrist or over one's flight jacket) and original box & instructions! 7 day return privilege if not delighted.

Don't settle for imitations or rejected material or reserve auctions. Why not own an original, first quality, authentic, current military issue watch? Good luck!

This is what the watch looks like at night (12 o'clock tube is orange on these later watches):
