Honouring Canada’s
157th Birthday
The 41mm Arctic Red Maple GSAR celebrates Marathon's homeland of Canada. Featuring a crisp white dial embellished with a bold Red Maple Leaf appliqué, this new release pays homage to our country's esteemed military legacy.
The first 157 pieces have been produced with a limited edition case. This version features special ADANAC engravings as well as a unique case back, marking the watch as a limited edition.
Born in the north
Each watch bears a unique serial number and is engraved with Marathon's historic ADANAC branding— embodying Canadian pride and resilience.
During Marathon's history supplying Allied Forces, select government contracts included rigid restrictions that prohibited branding on timepieces. In a nod to our own heritage and to ensure wearers knew that their trusted timepiece was bornright here in the North, Marathon included the word "ADANAC" on the dial of these watches—Canada spelled backwards. Models featuring the unique ADANAC marking are exceptionally rare and are known now as coveted collector's items.

the spirit of Canada
At Marathon, we take pride in embodying the spirit of Canada in every timepiece we create. The 41mm Arctic Red Maple GSAR and the limited ADANAC Edition each pay homage to our past, celebrate our present, and promise the continuation of our legacy.
