What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Glycine Combat 6 Classic

Owners praise the Glycine Combat 6 Classic's dressier 36mm profile, comfortable and light wearability, and an exceptionally legible dial with lume on numerals. The Cal. 224 movement, an ETA 2824-2, is noted as reliable. One owner points out minimal lume on the hands and a visible serial number between the lugs. Overall, owners find the Glycine Combat 6 Classic a reliable and good value option, particularly for its wearability and dial legibility.

Vario 1918 Trench Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.
