What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Bremont The Meta Kronos

Bremont The Meta Kronos is praised for its comfortable 40mm size, retro sapphire crystal, and simple dial. Owners note its GMT function and call it a "strap monster." This specific Meta employee edition is a custom S302 Kronos GMT limited to around 54 pieces, featuring a modified automatic movement, GMT functionality, and a custom dial with "move fast" text and Meta-specific colors. It is offered for $3700 plus shipping. On balance, owners value Bremont The Meta Kronos for its wearable size and classic dive watch aesthetic.

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.
