Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0279

The Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0279 is noted as a large watch with significant wrist presence, though some owners find it thinner and lower profile than other large dive watches. One owner describes it as a solid weekend beater and loves its design and wearability. The watch is considered a great entry-level Swiss Made diver with exceptional value, though sourcing a bracelet can be difficult. On balance, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0279 highly for its value and substantial wrist presence.

Squale 2002

Owners widely praise the Squale 2002 for its cool vintage aesthetic, legible dial, and the warm feel of its bakelite bezel. The mesh bracelet is noted as high quality, and one owner found the build quality outstanding for the price. However, one reviewer suggested improvements like a thinner case and better wrist balance, while another owner found larger watches like the 2002 ultimately too big for their wrist. One community member questioned the authenticity of a specific watch, suggesting it might be a "Frankinsquale" with a modified case. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Squale 2002 for its authentic dive watch character and unique vintage design at a competitive price.
