Reviews

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

Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT

Owners widely appreciate the Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT for its outstanding value and attractive design, with some noting its utility for tracking three time zones. The watch features a dual 12-hour and 24-hour dial and a free-spinning bezel with at least 120 teeth, secured by a second crown for precise alignment. Some owners find the GMT hand's similarity to the minute hand frustrating, and one owner noted a misaligned GMT hand with the Sellita SW330-2 movement. Overall, owners rate the Glycine Airman Contemporary GMT highly for its functionality and value as a robust beater watch.

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.

BOLDR Supply Co. Globetrotter GMT

Owners widely praise the Boldr Globetrotter GMT as a compelling sports watch and excellent value, with one owner finding it "addicting to look at." Reviewers highlight the watch's outstanding legibility, featuring applied Super-LumiNova indices and sword hands on a matte black dial. The ceramic bezel is noted for its tight, knurled grip and smooth, quiet bidirectional ratcheting action. One reviewer specifically mentions the multi-city ceramic bezel's sharp markings and orange accents. However, one owner expresses disappointment, stating Boldr "missed the mark with this model." Overall, owners and reviewers largely laud the Boldr Globetrotter GMT for its legibility and bezel action, despite one dissenting opinion.
