Dan Henry 1970vsGlycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic

Owners widely praise the Dan Henry 1970 for its striking looks, particularly the art deco hands and fantastic crystal. The 44mm size is noted as a drawback for wrists under 7 inches, and one owner reported strap change marks inside the lugs and a small mark on the clasp. The watch features a 41-hour power reserve and 200-meter water resistance. Overall, owners rate the Dan Henry 1970 highly for its distinctive vintage-inspired design and value at $295.

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic for its exceptional thinness at 10.4mm for a 42mm diver, perfect proportions for small wrists, and unique, non-homage aesthetic, with some considering it the best dive watch under $400 due to its superior finishing and value. The case shape, dimensions, and drilled lugs are also highlighted as positives, and the dial is legible with good lume on the hands. However, reviewers and owners consistently flag sub-par lume on the markers that fades quickly, and an inconsistent power reserve. Some owners report the stock strap or bracelet is subpar, and one owner experienced the bezel detaching after a light bump, questioning build quality. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner noting it runs about 2.5 seconds fast per day, while another reports an inconsistent power reserve. On balance, owners rate the Glycine Combat Sub Box Ceramic highly for its thinness, unique design, and value, despite concerns about lume and strap quality.
