The Gallet/Marathon ADANAC (Canada spelled backwards) was issued to both Canadian and US military personnel in the mid to late eighties. From the design one can see that it was intended for both pilot and diving use, making it an interesting milspec piece with clear inspiration from the Benrus Type 1/2. The minimal and asymmetric case design of these watches is easy to fall in love with for its clean aesthetic. If you’re looking for a piece of military history to wear that has wrist presence, this is a fantastic option you’ll find getting rotated often into your tool watch lineup. Not only does it remain in stunning "like new old stock" condition, it includes its original box with issue markings and an original and uncut strap.

Dial: Mint and no blemishes under magnification. All the tritium lume plots are intact and have aged to a gorgeous custard color.
Hands: Are matching and contain all of their lume. Case: Fantastic with almost no signs of use. Appears unpolished. Correct unsigned crown. Bezel: Nearly flawless.
Crystal: Very light scratches that could be later buffed with Polywatch. There are no cracks or dents.
Accessories: Original box and uncut strap.

All operations of the watch function flawlessly. The movement just had a complete service, is running well on our timegrapher and comes with our 1-year mechanical warranty.
