Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
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.
One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.
The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
