Feel free to chase me with torches and pitchforks since my new watch is not actually vintage, but is made to replicate the original late 1960s model. I just received my new Glycine Airman SST "Pumpkin" (shown with my other non-vintage Glycine Combat Sub). Very happy with my new watch (as I have been with every Glycine I've owned), expect for the band, which will be replaced as soon as the steel replacement arrives. The leather band is very thick and not tapered - it's like wearing a belt on your wrist. While I'd love to get an original Pumpkin, I'm am much happier with the cost of the current model.
Thumbs up for your fine pair of Glycines!
Based upon my evaluation of the Ningaloo Reef Auto Chrono which I picked up in 2013, I share your praise of Glycine watches ~ excellent Swiss quality at reasonable price levels.
There are many bargains out there for great Swiss watches as the manufacturers seek to shrink inventory levels in the face of persistent sagging sales affecting the industry generally over the past couple of years.
