Swatch x Blancpain turned out to be a hoot, but what's the best way to spend $400 if you want a Swiss diver not made of plastic?

Glycine was at one point my best watch, i loved it. But we tend to move on and move up in watch collecting don't we? Seeking the more refined brand, the more respected brand. Well this video reminded me of what a soft spot i have for Glycine and prompted me to order this model. It came today and it is knocking me out. It demonstrates to me that a great watch is a great watch---regardless of price. I have other more expensive pieces now, but man, this one is great. I mean, the finishing on my Tudor BB is not noticeably different than this. Wears like a thin slab of coolness on the wrist (again, besting the Tudor in thinness and wearability). As a side note, nobody seems to have a problem with Swatch group watches so there's no point making a huge deal about the Invicta ownership here either. Actually, huge props to them for helping Glycine to continue making great Swiss watches and doing it at a price that, as you point out, is a headline itself.

My family owns 3 Combat Subs. No better deal out there for mechanical Swiss divers. Very nice watches, well made and highly recommended. The Swatch is a disposable plastic toy.
@mitchaelhollingsworth16989 ай бұрын
Years ago glycine combat subs were going for 600-1000 and i thought of them like squale. Now the products haven't really changed, but the invicta ownership had changed the business side of things for them and the perception. They aren't exclusive or scarce anymore and that changes value dramatically. They used to be critically acclaimed and now they are simply a fantastic bargain, so their notoriety is for a completely different reason
@SpaceG959 ай бұрын
I see that as a good thing. For a man of limited finances, I find it refreshing that a swiss made watch with heritage is actually attainable.
@mitchaelhollingsworth16989 ай бұрын
@@SpaceG95 i agree. I bought a hamilton khaki aviation air race grey market a few years ago for around 300 and was amazed to actually get a swiss watch for that price. I ended up moving that on and i largely gravitate towards german brands or microbrands now because i prefer the designs and value for money. I like some swiss brands and watches, but bending the knee to elitist swiss watch cartels is something i really dont want to do.

Proud owner of the 39mm version, GL0401 ! It's my absolute favorite watch, started wearing it pretty much all the time. It wears amazing, put it on a black/gold Nato strap, the gilt is great and build quality is unrivaled for the price :) My dream was to get a Tudor BB58, but honestly after getting the Glycine for 500€, it's hard justifying spending 4k on a BB.

You got exactly the point imho, there are tons of video suggesting you how to spend better your money, but all those good suggestions are valid if you have only that watch.

Your essay on the comparison between the plastic Blancpain and the Combat is so spot on. Enough so that I subscribed. Your point about the deep discounts (thanx Invicta bad press) is absolutely true. This is a situation in which an unused nice quality diver containing a Sellita for under 400 is extremely rare. The only other brand with similar specs that gets routinely discounted this significantly would seem to be Gevril....but the history of Glycine is much more legit. I guess you could occasionally put Certina and Mido in there too, but anything new contains a Powermatic with the "hobbled" regulator---which is why I don't acquire them anymore. I think it is cool that you buck the typical online trend of only whispering Glycine, due to the instant backlash about them being Invictas. I have a 24 hour "blue/black" Worldtimer, and a gorgeous sunray blue moonphase Combat, and paid relatively nothing for them. I also have Speedies, Seamasters, Ulysse Nardin, Hydroconquests, etc., but will pull out a Glycine when I want a carefree outing not worrying about scratches on the Hesalite. Bang for the Buck baby! You might want to double check your timeline comparison on the whether the "Fifty" was patented or came to market before the "Sub". Not sure we should always blindly follow the corporate storyline. You are presenting intelligent narratives, and don't seem to have been ensnared by manufacturers "quid-pro-quo" largesse yet. I will continue to have you on my top half dozen watch stuff views.

I have been interested in watches for many more decades that I would care to admit and, these days, I have quite a few high-end mechanical timepieces and one sort of high-end quartz (Breitling Aerospace, my go-to travel watch). Even though I decided to stop buying watches 8 years ago as what I had collected was way more than anyone might possibly need, I saw the Glycine Sub at local Costco in December 2022 and immediately bought it as, being interested in watches for many decades, I was well-familiar with the brand and wanted to check it out to see what was the catch and why it was so cheap. During the month after that, I discovered that I gradually started picking it up over other watches I had at that point at home (the vast majority of my watches are in a bank safety deposit box, but I rotate them constantly). Fast forward almost a year. It has been on my wrist practically non-stop since then. I just love it: it is light, comfortable, well-built, accurate (+4.5 seconds a day - totally on par with all my high-end pieces), easy to clean (taking it off the NATO strap takes 10 seconds and it can be rinsed or washed). Unscrewing and screwing the crown back in gives that hard-to-describe pleasure one gets only from operating a precisely built mechanical gadget, but - if you happen to have a gadget like that - you'd know exactly what I am talking about. In short, it is a great watch. I was smiling through the Glycine part of the video, as @WatchCrunchOfficial's opinion was so close to what I think about that watch.

This affordable Glycine is real food for thoughts. It has provenance, performance, street cred and looks good on the wrist. Do you really need a SeaMaster or a JLC Polaris to feel good ? Buying a €61 Pagani Design vintage Patek chronograph homage (something I would not have been caught dead doing five years ago) and a €200 1990’s quartz YEMA Superman Worldtime from eBay has had more impact than I expected. I truly enjoy wearing these two pieces, and suddenly made the spending of €5000 on a watch look completely shocking.

I go with the SwatchPain. If I wanted a value diver in the Submariner vibe made by an Invicta company... I'd go for *another* Pro Diver for less than $100 (my current one is at least 10 years old and runs great, even after my washing machine "test" last year). If I wanted a quality watch at a great price but in the Blancpain vibe I'd recommend the Baltic Aquascaphe which has many elements of the BP Bathyscape. But I can see a day at the beach with the SwatchPain.

I own a pre-Invicta Combat Sub [along with a pre-Invicta Airman Base 22 [both ETA movements]. I love the Glycine brand for its heritage, reliability and value. The Combat Sub started out as Glycine's field watch and that's what I use it for... Swiss ETA 2824 movement, 10.5mm thin, drilled lug holes, sapphire crystal, 200M WR with a timing bezel makes it perfect. I'm a retired US Marine [and aviator, also dive trained], and I've spent years in the field. I think I l know what is required of a great field watch.
