Reviews

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

Glycine Combat Sub Sport

Owners widely praise the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 39mm Automatic Watch GL0403 as an exceptional value, noting its sleek design and solid, tool-like build. Some owners report a minor color mismatch between the lume pip and dial lume, and one suggestion for improvement includes a clasp with tool-less micro adjustments. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 39mm Automatic Watch GL0403 highly for its impressive design and build quality at its price point.

Thorn Titanium Dive Watch

Owners widely praise the Thorn Titanium 39mm Automatic Dive Watch for its exceptional lightness and comfort due to its titanium construction, with many highlighting the impressive finishing and the "game-changer" tool-free bracelet adjustment system. The lume is also frequently called out as superior. However, some owners find the watch wears a little small, and one owner returned it due to a ghost-date issue and the watch stopping once every 24 hours, with another reporting the watch stopped when the seconds hand reached 60. The design is described by one owner as somewhat uninspired, aside from the custom dial, due to common mod parts. Overall, owners rate the Thorn Titanium 39mm Automatic Dive Watch highly for its wearability and bracelet system.
