What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Glycine Combat 6 Classic

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat 6 Classic for its refined engineering, comfortable 36mm wearability, and exceptionally legible dial with well-executed lume on markers. One owner notes the salmon dial model features a decorated Glycine Cal. 224 movement, an ETA 2824-2. A reviewer points out that while dial markers have good lume, the hands have minimal lume, and the serial number etched between the lugs is visible.

Galo Novo Cruisin

Owners widely praise the Galo Novo Cruisin's attractive specs and price, with many calling it a perfect summer watch and appreciating its clean, refreshing, and beautiful design. The bronze case variant features "killer lume" that glows blue-green and looks great in the sun, and the watch is comfortable enough for constant wear. However, owners are split on the 38mm/39mm sizing, with some finding it too small and others preferring sub-40mm cases. Significant frustration exists regarding Galo's communication, with owners citing rolling delays, a perceived lack of transparency, and misleading timelines, leading to a negative customer service impression and some considering order cancellations. One owner noted their crown does not screw in. Overall, owners rate the Galo Novo Cruisin highly for its aesthetic appeal and value, despite significant concerns about production communication and transparency.
