Gents, I like to know if those mentioned cases same with Benrus? Or they are just similar design?
Thanks!

Marathon, Adanac & Gallet quartz

Assuming you’re referring to steel case:


Similar- a lot thinner. About same diameter though.

If you find a nice one at a good price go for it. They are lite weight and great size.

There is supposedly a new Marathon coming soon. Might want to wait for that before deciding.

these are fairly close to the Benrus and can be found at decent prices...
