Reviews

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

Glycine Combat Sub

The Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0094 is praised for its slim profile, measuring 10.4mm thick with inward-bending lugs that contribute to comfortable wear on smaller wrists. Owners report excellent timekeeping, with one noting accuracy around 0.01 seconds per day. The lume is noted to last longer than a Seiko SKX007, although visibility of individual markers can vary, and one owner observed slight underapplication on the 6 o'clock marker. The watch is widely available for around $300-$340, though some retailers list it significantly higher. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0094 highly for its comfortable wearability and accurate timekeeping at its accessible price point.

Resco DLC

Owners report satisfaction with the DLC coating, with one stating it is considered indestructible and the gold standard. Another owner chose the Resco DLC White specifically for this coating, expecting it to resist scratches better than previous coatings. One owner noted rust on the case by the time and date adjusting screw of a different Resco model, which the company stated was normal. Overall, owners value the durability and scratch resistance of the DLC coating on the Resco DLC White.
