Oris Divers Sixty‑Five DatevsGlycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic

The Oris Divers Sixty‑Five Date is lauded for its vintage aesthetic, comfortable 39mm/40mm wearability, and excellent legibility, enhanced by a domed crystal. Reviewers note its smooth winding action and functional Oris 733 automatic movement. Some find the domed crystal causes light reflection that can make the black dial appear less black, and the white date wheel is visually jarring on certain dial colors. Overall, reviewers praise the Oris Divers Sixty‑Five Date for its classic dive watch charm and comfortable wearability.

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic for its exceptional thinness at 10.4mm for a 42mm diver, perfect proportions for small wrists, and unique, non-homage aesthetic, with some considering it the best dive watch under $400 due to its superior finishing and value. The case shape, dimensions, and drilled lugs are also highlighted as positives, and the dial is legible with good lume on the hands. However, reviewers and owners consistently flag sub-par lume on the markers that fades quickly, and an inconsistent power reserve. Some owners report the stock strap or bracelet is subpar, and one owner experienced the bezel detaching after a light bump, questioning build quality. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner noting it runs about 2.5 seconds fast per day, while another reports an inconsistent power reserve. On balance, owners rate the Glycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic highly for its thinness, unique design, and value, despite concerns about lume and strap quality.
