    i ve just read the glycine ceo interview may be he will read it

    some of my comments as a glycine airman collector

    first : the build quality of this watch is perfect and it really feel like a vintage airman
    second : you should made a limited batch with double or super dome crystal (glycine airman collector and kind type of watch are used to "polywatch")
    third : why don't you offer a red date wheel or a cyclope date wheel as some vintage airman has

    it will be my summer watch because i can dive with it why : my gmt master doesn't

    enjoy your flight

    Looks great, nice combo! I'm hopeless at finding good watch/strap combos, I like everyone else's better than mine (well, almost everyone's!).

    That's a beautiful watch/strap combo. Congrats on a great choice. Is that a Glycine strap, or aftermarket?

    THAT, is a beautiful strap. I just wrote a few days ago that I didn't like leather straps on the Airman (mine is also the 22 GA), but this seriously made me change my mind. Just, wow.

    I did not have glycine watches in my relevant set, but now i consider glycine as a perhaps-i-buy-one-as-a-gift watch. Congratulations glycine :P

    Arnold,
    Nice watch! If you don't mind modifying your watch, you could easily get a red date wheel for this watch and a cyclops to put on the crystal over the date. The parts should be available at Frei & Borel and there are quite a few custom watchmakers who could do the work easily.
    I'd like to see domed sapphire on these watches as well.
    Keep the RPMs in the green
