Glycine Combat 6 ClassicvsLongines LONGINES AVIGATION BIGEYE

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.

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Longines Avigation Bigeye for its unique, asymmetric dial, vintage military aesthetic, and cohesive design, with one reviewer noting its GPHG Best Revival prize win. The tactile chronograph pusher action and reliable L688.2 column wheel movement are highlighted, as is the watch's legibility and versatile strap-swapping potential due to its 20mm lug width. However, criticisms include the 30-minute sub-dial's three-minute hash marks, which some find compromise reading speed, and the lack of drilled lugs. The watch's thickness, around 14.45mm, is noted as typical for its movement, and some owners mention minor QC issues with chronograph hand alignment and a loud rotor. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Longines Avigation Bigeye highly for its distinctive vintage-inspired design and solid chronograph performance at its price point.
