Reviews

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

Glycine Combat Sub Vintage Bronze

The Glycine Combat Sub Vintage Bronze is widely praised for its exceptional value, thin profile, and unique aesthetic, with owners appreciating its comfortable wearability and developing patina. Many owners highlight the watch's slim case, often noted as around 10.4mm to 10.5mm, which allows it to fit easily under shirt cuffs. The Sellita SW200-1 movement is reported to be accurate, with one owner regulating it to approximately +1.9 seconds per day. Lume is generally considered strong, though one source notes it as subpar compared to other features. Criticisms include a non-bronze buckle, a desire for ceramic bezel inserts from some users, and inconsistent power reserve for one owner. On balance, owners and the community rate the Glycine Combat Sub Vintage Bronze highly for its impressive value and comfortable, thin design.
