The Glycine Men's Airman SST GMT 43mm Automatic Watch GL0312 is praised as one of the best values for a Swiss automatic GMT watch. Owners note its 1970s reissue design, referencing the brand's hometown of Bienne, Switzerland, and the dial's two black shades representing AM and PM. This model is recognized as an early purpose-built dual-time zone watch. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Men's Airman SST GMT 43mm Automatic Watch GL0312 highly for its value and historical design cues.
The IWC Schaffhausen Iw379502 Aquatimer Chronograph Edition Galapagos Islands is praised for its connection to the Charles Darwin Foundation and its flyback chronograph function. Owners appreciate the legibility, the ceramic bezel described as a "work of art," and the watch's lume. The black and yellow design with different color lumes is also a noted positive. However, some owners question the durability of the rubber-coated stainless steel case for an all-black watch. The watch is described as having a considerable thickness, with one owner calling it "pretty chonky." Strap options are limited due to non-removable bars. One owner notes the case dimensions as 44mm x 17mm, finding it surprisingly wearable despite its size and weight. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw379502 Aquatimer Chronograph Edition Galapagos Islands for its unique design and charitable connection, despite some concerns regarding its thickness and strap limitations.
