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 for its excellent value, with many considering it the best watch they own for its price point. Its solid build, reliability, and attractive design are frequently highlighted, alongside a surprisingly thin profile and comfortable wearability for daily use. Some owners report accurate timekeeping around +3 seconds per day, and the bezel action is described as satisfyingly clicky. One owner notes that their 4-year-old Glycine Combat Sub still exhibits excellent quality. The 39mm size is particularly favored for its sleekness and versatility, with some regretting not choosing it over larger variants. On balance, owners rate the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 39mm Automatic Watch highly for its exceptional value and well-executed design.

Ollech & Wajs 8001 Havana

The Olech & Wajs Watches 8001 HAVANA is praised for its robust, 1970s-inspired design and COSC-certified Soprod Newton P092 movement. Reviewers note its sharp-edged, brutalist case and integrated bracelet, with some finding the finishing rough rather than elegant. The bracelet's first links lack articulation, leading to an uncomfortable fit for smaller wrists and a significant effective lug-to-lug measurement, despite the bracelet offering a useful 18mm extension. The watch is considered a unique and horologically competent alternative within its category, offering good build and value. Overall, reviewers rate the Olech & Wajs Watches 8001 HAVANA positively for its distinctive design and dependable movement, though fit on smaller wrists is a noted drawback.
