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 Vintage The Chief GMT

Owners widely appreciate the Glycine Airman Vintage The Chief GMT for its historical significance and homage to the 1953 original. However, one owner notes criticism regarding the main hour hand being a 12-hour hand on a 24-hour dial, which hinders its intended use and compromises the bezel's functionality, leading to a return. On balance, owners value the Glycine Airman Vintage The Chief GMT for its historical connection, though a functional critique exists regarding its hour hand implementation.

Maen Lunar Classic 36

The Maen Lunar Classic 36 is lauded for its attractive salmon dial with radial brushing and its appealing moonphase complication, complemented by a brick bracelet praised for its drape and case integration. Reviewers note the watch's vintage-inspired styling and elegant dial. One reviewer, however, would prefer the omission of lume for a cleaner look, while another would opt for white lume over faux patina and suggests removing the crosshairs from the moonphase sub-dial. The watch is powered by a Sellita SW280-1 movement and was available for pre-order starting at €1,049. Overall, reviewers appreciate the Maen Lunar Classic 36 for its stylish design and well-executed detailing, particularly the dial and bracelet.
