What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT

Owners widely praise the Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT for its outstanding value and attractive design, noting its ability to track three time zones and the functional dual 12-hour and 24-hour dial with a precisely toothed, free-spinning bezel that can be locked. Some owners find the GMT hand's similarity to the minute hand frustrating, and the ETA movement can exhibit a misaligned GMT hand. One owner notes the lume pips are weaker than the hands, while another highlights its 200m water resistance and considered it a great beater. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT highly for its unique functionality and value proposition.

From video reviewers

The case finishing and dial details are praised. The watch offers exceptional value with its Swiss Made GMT functionality for under $500.

Glycine Airman GMT

Owners widely praise the Glycine Airman GMT for its value and classic design, with specific appreciation for its 39mm sizing, 200m water resistance, and beefy signed crowns. Reviewers highlight its faithful re-issue nature, retaining vintage features like the plexiglass crystal and locking friction bezel with a thumbscrew crown, while some owners note its subtle blue degrade dial and red-tipped GMT hand. Accuracy from its Sellita-based automatic movement is described as acceptable, though some owners find the dual 12-hour and 24-hour scales confusing and the slim GMT hand difficult to read. On balance, enthusiasts and reviewers rate the Glycine Airman GMT highly for its vintage charm and robust build at its price point.
