Reviews

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

CWC RN Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 with Date

Owners widely praise the CWC RN Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 with Date for its authentic vintage look and legible dial, with reviewers noting its faithful homage to the 1980 original and durable 41mm case. The watch features an upgraded sapphire crystal and improved lume, and its 120-click bezel is described as perfectly clicking. Some find the vintage-tinted dial and hands' gold tone slightly too pronounced and the applied paint too glossy, while the day/date function draws mixed opinions. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the CWC RN Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 with Date highly for its authentic vintage aesthetic and robust build.

Glycine Combat Sub

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub for its exceptional thinness, with sources noting case thicknesses around 10.4mm to 10.8mm, perfect proportions, and a refined aesthetic that avoids homage designs. Many highlight its significant value, especially at discounted prices, and its solid build quality. 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 blend of wearability and value.

From video reviewers

The Glycine Combat Sub offers good value at its price point, with reviewers highlighting its attractive design and comfortable wear. However, multiple reviewers noted areas where cost-saving measures are apparent in the build quality.
