Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Currently I have a Marathon GSAR inbound and I am looking for strap recommendations for ToxicNATOs. Currently I have a Jungle Green Toxic Shiznit Black PUT in my cart, but would like to see what else is recommended.
Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
The ones he just renamed (previously called the Admiralty and CRC) would be excellent.

Charcoal is awesome in person. It looks weird on the website.

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Any color will work for a GSAR / TSAR, but I enjoyed a lot wearing olive and tan natos with the TSAR I had.

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Thanks! Your TSAR does look good on the tan strap. It’s funny you mentioned olive because I have one of those sitting in my cart waiting to be ordered. What’s the blue strap in your last picture?

Most of the straps in the second picture (including the blue one on the third) are from gnomon watches. Good straps with fun colors, but lately I've only been wearing toxic natos in grey, tan, olive and navy blue.

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Thanks! The ToxicNATOs are the best I’ve used and I’m slowly replacing my other NATO straps with ToxicNATOs.

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Marathon bracelet is solid, it's also the most difficult bracelet to sized that I've dealt with

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
I've found the bracelet on sale numerous times on WUS for 100-120 bucks. If you put in a WTB ad over there, someone will bite. Good luck!

Check out the Magnum rubber straps from Toxic too.
Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
What makes it difficult to size? How is it sized? Do the pins screw out or push out?Joeprez wrote:Marathon bracelet is solid, it's also the most difficult bracelet to sized that I've dealt with
Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Thanks I’ll do that once I get the watch. Hopefully it’ll be in tomorrow.deepcdvr wrote:I've found the bracelet on sale numerous times on WUS for 100-120 bucks. If you put in a WTB ad over there, someone will bite. Good luck!

I dig the Toxic rubber instead of the one it comes with, or, pick any nato or zulu that suits your fancy...
It's a very versatile watch.

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
Indeed, I dislike the rubber it came on as I can’t get the right size because I’m between holes. I picked up a few ToxicNATOs today and ordered some extra spring bars so I’ll experiment with different colors. How hard is it to get the spring bars in the Toxic Rubber?Brother Rat wrote: ↑Wed Mar 07, 2018 6:49 pmI dig the Toxic rubber instead of the one it comes with, or, pick any nato or zulu that suits your fancy...

Re: Strap Recommendations-Marathon GSAR
You need the right spring bars. I think they are the 20mm x 1.78mm x .9mm tips shoulder-less https://www.toxicnatos.com/collections/ ... /toxicbarsItnStln wrote: ↑Wed Mar 07, 2018 6:55 pmIndeed, I dislike the rubber it came on as I can’t get the right size because I’m between holes.
