Introduction

Huckberry and Marathon have teamed up again to deliver a refreshed take on a classic military-inspired timepiece. The new Navigator blends heritage design with modern materials, offering a versatile option for anyone who appreciates rugged style with refined details.

What Happened

The collaboration introduced the 41mm CeraShell Arctic Navigator, featuring a matte-black case paired with an Arctic-white dial—a first for the CeraShell platform. Huckberry kept the familiar 12- and 24-hour scales but swapped the traditional red seconds hand for a bold hunter orange tip, while minimizing branding by placing the tree logo on the crown. The case utilizes Marathon’s proprietary CeraShell material, combining bio-sourced plastic and ceramic powder for a lightweight build just 11.5mm thick, protected by a sapphire crystal. Tritium tubes ensure constant visibility on the hands, markers, and bezel pip. Inside, an ETA F06.115 HeavyDrive quartz movement powers the watch, with water resistance rated to 60 meters. The piece ships with two straps: an olive-green DEFSTAN nylon band and a coyote-brown HANK strap constructed from neoprene and Kevlar, extending the military aesthetic beyond the dial.

Why This Matters

This release underscores the enduring appeal of heritage-driven watch collaborations. By staying true to the original Navigator’s military roots while introducing subtle color updates and material refinements, Huckberry and Marathon offer a piece that feels both timeless and seasonally relevant. The watch’s rugged construction and thoughtful details make it a practical choice for everyday wear and a solid addition to any curated collection.
