Buyalov A67 BronzevsGlycine Combat Sub Vintage GL0417

The Buyalov A67 Бронза receives praise for its 1967-style case, bezel, and bracelet, along with unique dial colors like fume-orange and sunburst teal, and excellent SuperLuminova C3 lume. Owners appreciate the bronze case's ability to develop a pleasing patina and its radial brushing that offers a unique 3D shine. The Seiko NH38 movement is noted for accuracy within 5 seconds per day and reliability. However, some owners criticize the loss of Russian character with the Seiko movement and find the dial logo distracting. The watch is also described as thicker and wearing bulkier than desired, with some finding the date window busy and its trapezoid shape unconventional. On balance, owners rate the Buyalov A67 Бронза highly for its distinctive dial colors and case design at its price point, despite reservations about the Seiko movement and case thickness.

Owners widely praise the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Vintage 42mm Automatic Watch GL0417 for its solid build and sharp looks, noting its thin profile contributes to comfortable wearability. The lume is reported to last longer than a Seiko SKX007's, though one owner observed the 6 o'clock marker lume was slightly underapplied and the overall lume appeared weak in a brief test. The watch draws inspiration from vintage Rolex Submariner models, incorporating design elements from various references. Some owners express a desire for a triangle on the bezel pip, and one owner hopes for improvements to hollow end links compared to previous Combat models. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Vintage 42mm Automatic Watch GL0417 highly for its vintage-inspired design and comfortable, thin wearability.
