With several models available in the Glycine Combat Sub collection, the different bracelets and straps available include: The stainless steel case ranges from 42mm to 48mm in diameter, depending on which model you’re looking at. The range of case sizes offered is enough to fit wrists of all sizes. The 50mm lug to lug tip is well-fitted and guaranteed to match the way the case spans across the wrist. The sides of the lugs are cleanly polished, giving the watch a well-built, professional look. The COMBAT SUB 42 GL0200 has a bronze-hued unidirectional turning bezel with an aluminium ring. It is paired with a blue dial and a versatile brown calf leather fabric strap that matches the bezel, crown, and lugs. Its large indices and hands are framed with gold plating to give additional luminescence and visibility when needed. This model also contains an eye-catching red-coloured seconds hand that adds to the watch’s classic look. The Glycine Combat Sub 48 models are the newest additions to this collection. The watches below are also powered by the highly precise GL224 Swiss automatic movement:

Additionally, the GL224 Swiss automatic movement is not used in all of the Combat Sub watches. The timepieces in this collection can be classified into three different categories, each with its own type of movement: The thin golden crown of the Glycine Combat Sub bears the logo of the brand. It is built to provide additional protection to the watch, which is great if you regularly go out for outdoor activities, as it can withstand greater impacts. Bezel Unusually for me, I don’t wear this watch on the bracelet very often, because with the downswept lugs it looks and wears wonderfully on a NATO strap. Final ThoughtsAs a tool watch I wouldn’t hesitate to take it on an actual dive – the stiffness and thinness of the bezel is the only thing that would give me pause, as all bezels are more difficult to operate with wet or gloved hands. For everyday wear, it sits low enough on the wrist that it doesn’t attract doorknobs or hard edges. Glycine has explored an assortment of different colour combinations in their watches to come up with a wide range of options for the Combat Sub. Whether it’s the Combat Sub’s straps, bezels, or dials, you will have an array of choices that you can customise to create with your perfect watch. Here are the colour choices offered: Additionally, the Combat Sub offers three layers of anti-reflection coating on its sapphire crystal. This is a serious edge over other brands since the Combat Sub’s sapphire crystal is well built with no curved or dome reflections even at sharp angles, making for excellent readability.

WATCHES.AG is rated for the fourth consecutive year with an excellent credit standing. The Bisnode credit certificate honors companies for a stable economic enterprise situation.Glycine has been manufacturing watches since its founding in Bienne, Switzerland, in 1914. They’re probably best known for their Airman line of pilot and GMT watches, which were used extensively by the US military and even taken into space. The Combat line, including the Sub dive watch, has been in production since 1967. Powering the watch is of course the classic, reliable Swiss ETA 2824 automatic movement, although Glycine refers to it as the GL224. Not much needs to be said about these movements; they are tough, refined, and capable of excellent accuracy. When I bought my Combat Sub it was keeping time at +20 spd, which is within spec and not terrible, but with a bit of easy regulation (done by myself- my first time opening up an automatic watch) it keeps time consistently at +6spd. The landscape of modern dive watch design is a crowded one. It’s such a popular genre that most manufacturers have at least one example in their lineup. Many brands try hard to present something different, something to make their watch more compelling than the competition, and some go the homage route. While the watch in review today is not revolutionary in design or specifications, I very much feel that the attention given to this one makes it stand out head and shoulders above many other good dive watches.

If you tend to spend most of your time indoors and rarely engage in physical activity, you would likely prefer to wear a classic dress watch. If you’re regularly engaging in outdoor activities and sports events, then you might want to look at a sports watch like the Glycine Combat Sub instead.
