Linde Werdelin 3 Timer White DialvsGlycine Airman No. 1 GMT

The Linde Werdelin 3 Timer White Dial is widely praised for its unique, masculine, and industrial design, featuring sharp edges, hexagonal screws, and a distinctive case shape. Owners and reviewers highlight its attractive dial with a concentric circle pattern and the functional GMT complication for tracking three time zones, facilitated by a bi-directional bezel and an ETA 2893-A2 movement allowing easy one-hour GMT hand adjustments. Its wearability is noted as comfortable despite its size, and the easy strap-change system is appreciated. However, some find the 44mm or 46mm case size large, and the €4800 / $5,700 to $6,300 price for an ETA movement is considered high by some reviewers. One review mentions the ETA 2893-2 movement has a below-average 38-hour power reserve and is not a true GMT complication.

Owners widely praise the Glycine Airman No. 1 GMT for its historical significance and attractive dial. However, some find the 36mm case size to be a bit small, and the GMT hand can be difficult to distinguish from the minute hand. The watch has a very limited 3ATM water resistance. Later versions feature sapphire crystals, differing from earlier plexi models. Overall, owners value the Glycine Airman No. 1 GMT for its historical appeal and dial design, despite minor legibility and sizing concerns.
