A bold racing stripe ignites the rich blue dial of this beautifully detailed update to our Marlin Quartz Chronograph Tachymeter. At the 3 o’clock mark, you’ll find a 24-hour sub-dial decorated with the checkered flags that signal victory on the racetrack. Driven by an ultra-precise quartz movement, this smooth timepiece includes a chronograph for tracking elapsed time and a tachymeter index along its outer minute track for measuring speed. Though it brings a new and exciting edge to our Marlin collection, it retains classic Marlin features with a sturdy 40mm stainless steel case, domed acrylic crystal, and retro-style applied indices at 3, 9, and 12 o'clock. Completing its racing aesthetic is a perforated blue natural leather strap sourced from the Leather Working Group (LWG) and equipped with quick-release spring bars.
