Reviews

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

Circula Watches SuperSport

Owners widely praise the Circula SuperSport for its excellent value, German heritage, and impressive specifications, with many highlighting its petrol dial and genuine Super-Compressor design. Reviewers note the refined brushed finish, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a solid build quality with smooth crowns on the final version, which also offers excellent lume. The 40mm case is described as thinner and more refined than a prototype. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Circula SuperSport highly for its attention to detail and quality at a competitive price.

From video reviewers

The petrol dial color and the super-compressor case design are highlighted strengths. Reviewers did not agree on any weaknesses.

Glycine Combat Sub Sport

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub Sport for its thinness, with various sources citing measurements between 10.4mm and 10.8mm, and its comfortable wearability due to contoured lugs that make it feel smaller than its 39mm case size. Reviewers and owners consistently highlight its value, with some considering it the best dive watch under $400 and noting its refined finishing and smooth winding action. However, opinions are mixed on its design, with some finding it unique and others plain or questioning its homage status. Lume quality is a point of contention, with some finding it subpar and hard to read at night, while others describe it as marginally better than a Seiko SKX007. Some owners have also reported inconsistent power reserve or stem issues. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Glycine Combat Sub Sport highly for its exceptional thinness and value proposition at the price point.
