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 Sub Sport

Owners widely praise the Glycine Combat Sub Sport for its exceptional value, thin profile, and solid build quality, often noting its finishing and wearability as superior for its price point. Reviewers consistently flag its slim case, with measurements around 10.4mm to 10.8mm, and appreciate its non-homage design and comfortable lug curvature. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting only 2 seconds per day loss, while another notes their Sellita SW200 movement runs at +6 to +9 seconds per day. Some owners report inconsistent power reserve not reaching the advertised 42 hours and find the lume sub-par for nighttime legibility. A few also mention sharp bracelet edges and a potentially short bracelet for larger wrists, and one owner dislikes the "COMBAT" text on the dial. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Glycine Combat Sub Sport highly for its impressive thinness and value as a Swiss automatic diver.

Spinnaker Bradner GMT

The Spinnaker Bradner GMT is praised for its awesome lume and comfortable wearability, with one owner noting the rubber strap is very comfortable and the beads of rice bracelet fits well on smaller wrists. Some find its 15mm thickness and bold colorway may not appeal to everyone, and one owner views it as more of a casual GMT with tool-watch styling than a diver. Overall, owners rate the Spinnaker Bradner GMT highly for its value and comfortable wearability.
