What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro for its scratch-resistant coating, thin and compact 38.5mm case, and versatile dial options. The layered finishing with polished chamfers and comfortable bracelet are frequently highlighted as strong points, contributing to its wearability. One owner notes good timekeeping, while a reviewer states the Miyota 9015 movement is adjusted to +/-10 seconds per day. A potential drawback mentioned is the date numeral appearing in half shadow due to anti-magnetic shielding, and one owner considers the bracelet clasp dated. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro highly for its durable construction and thoughtful design at its price point.

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.
