What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sinn EZM 12

The Sinn EZM 12 is widely praised as a purpose-built tool watch for air rescue and medical professionals, with reviewers highlighting its innovative design for critical timing, including a one-hour countdown bezel, an internal 10-minute bezel, and a pulsometer for pulse-taking. Its Tegiment hardened case, Ar dehumidifying capsule, and easily removable components for decontamination and strap changes are consistently noted as practical strengths. Owners and reviewers also point to its value at around €2,527/$3,340 and robust magnetic resistance. However, some owners find the dial layout busy and the lume on the hands disappointing, while the winding and inner bezel crowns are reported as difficult to operate, and the 38-hour power reserve is considered less robust than expected for its serious purpose. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sinn EZM 12 highly for its unique, practical design and robust construction tailored for demanding professional use.

From video reviewers

The tegimented case and bezel offer superior scratch resistance. The dual rotating bezels, an inner count-up and outer countdown, allow for monitoring multiple timeframes simultaneously. Reviewers noted the pulse rotor for measuring heart rate as a unique function.

Glycine Combat Sub Vintage

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub Vintage for its excellent proportions and slim profile. One owner notes the lume pip on the chapter ring is slightly off-color. The power reserve is reported as inconsistent. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Combat Sub Vintage highly for its value and slim wearability.

From video reviewers

The slim 10.5mm thickness is a consensus strength. Reviewers noted the two-tone option as an aesthetic appeal. No consensus weakness was identified.
