03The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely praise the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Bronze 39mm Automatic Watch GL0517 for its quality and value, with some considering it superior in finishing, thinness, accuracy, and movement feel compared to other automatic dive watches under $400. The 39mm size is noted as compelling, offering a similar aesthetic to other popular models. However, some owners report minor dial alignment issues, with one user suggesting it is within acceptable tolerance for an affordable watch. Dissatisfaction with the original strap/bracelet and clasp is also mentioned by multiple owners, and one owner expressed concern about potential bronze rot from seawater. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Bronze 39mm Automatic Watch GL0517 highly for its finishing and value, despite some caveats regarding strap quality and minor alignment concerns.
