What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Oris Star Edition

The Oris Star Edition is a faithful 35mm reissue of a 1966 model, featuring a vintage dial, sunburst finish, and acrylic crystal. Reviewers note the 35mm case size may be too small for some collectors. The watch is powered by the automatic Oris Calibre 733 movement with a 41-hour power reserve and offers 50m water resistance. One reviewer pointed out that the date digits are not sized like the original and the included strap appears cheap. Overall, reviewers appreciate the Oris Star Edition's faithful revival of a historically significant model, with the vintage aesthetic being a primary draw.

Glycine Airman No. 1 GMT

Owners widely praise the Glycine Airman No. 1 GMT for its historical significance and attractive dial. However, some find the 36mm case size to be a bit small, and the GMT hand can be difficult to distinguish from the minute hand. The watch has a very limited 3ATM water resistance. Later versions feature sapphire crystals, differing from earlier plexi models. Overall, owners value the Glycine Airman No. 1 GMT for its historical appeal and dial design, despite minor legibility and sizing concerns.

From video reviewers

The case finishing and dial colors are praised. The value proposition is tied to a sale price, with questions about long-term competitiveness.
