What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic

The Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic is noted for its non-tritium dial option, though some owners prefer the 1-12 numeral layout found on other models. One owner found the 36mm size too small for their wrist. Overall, owners appreciate the Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic for its non-tritium dial option.

Glycine Combat Sub

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub for its exceptional thinness, with many noting its 10.4mm to 10.8mm profile for a diver, perfect proportions, and solid build quality that offers significant value, especially at discounted prices. Its unique aesthetic is appreciated for avoiding homage looks, and the lug design contributes to a smaller perceived wear size despite its 42mm case. Some owners report an inconsistent power reserve and sub-par lume that can be difficult to read at night, while one owner noted a slightly off-color lume pip on the chapter ring. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Combat Sub highly for its refined feel, slim profile, and value proposition.
