Reviews

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

Glycine Combat Sub

Owners widely praise the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0092 as an exceptional value, with one owner noting it is available for $330 while advertised elsewhere for over $1000. The matte black dial, red bezel, and gold accents on the GL0092 are considered a successful and versatile combination, suitable for various straps. One owner reports the lume on the 6 o'clock marker is slightly underapplied, though the dial generally appears perfect. The watch's dimensions are noted as 42mm x 49.5mm x 10.5mm. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0092 highly for its remarkable value and attractive design.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner noted that this manual wind Yema Diver, while featuring a cool patina, is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value, positioning it as a fun second watch rather than an investment. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment, with one owner experiencing a water ingress issue.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
