Product Description
This Swiss-made watch by Victorinox features a large chronograph function with three recessed subdials set around an unconventionally shaped inner chapter ring. Between 1 and 3 o’clock is a tenth-seconds timer, and between 9 and 11 o’clock is a 30-minute timer Read More
I bought the black version 241493 around 6 months ago. It’s hard to fault. Only issue is the leather band permanently shows dark staining on the inside from even the slightest sweating.
My first Victorinox. Very happy with the build quality of the case and quality of the leather strap. I have a 6.35 inch wrist, and I was afraid this would be too large because of the ~50mm lug to lug, but this watch is exactly the largest lug to lug I would go with on my wrist. There's no overhang on my size wrist and thanks to the curved shape of the lugs it looks alright. As others also noted, my date wheel was also slightly misaligned, but this is only noticable with single digit dates. My chrono works perfectly fine. Very content given the price.
Pretty good looking everyday watch. A little disappointed that the seconds hand dial seems a little off and the date numeric is not at the centre of the date box.
DonaldTMy seconds hand dial is perfectly aligned, but yeah for single digit dates, the date seems slightly misaligned. That only bothers me nine days of the month though.
I recommend! I have the steel band version and it's surprisingly lightweight. The band has a beautiful combination of brushed and blank steel. The chronograph functions are the best I have tested, and they are reliable! Overall it's a nice casual everyday watch and I love it.
I was expecting a little higher quality but all in all a good solid beater. Hasn’t dropped a second yet and I’ve abused it pretty heavily. The “tacky”meter label isn’t as tacky as it appears in the pics. It’s the right size for 90% of wrists and just enough weight to give it a quality feel but not be a brick. My complaints: out of the box the hands weren’t lined up and while that was a simple fix, it should’ve never been shipped that way. They’ve remained lined up so I guess not a big deal. The date isn’t centered in the window but still legible. The pushers are a little plastic feeling and I was surprised by that but they have a solid feed back and don’t have any play in them. The leather band isn’t fantastic but sufficient and since I’m using it as a beater I changed it to a nato that I think looks pretty good. I do wish it had an hour counter vs 1/10th second but I knew that when I bought it. I feel this is $100-125 watch not $150 but overall I’m satisfied.
JohnDeauxNot long ago you could choose a metal strap, but that option is gone now. 😢 In my opinion the watch is worth way more than 150$ or 139.99$ in this case. I’m able to sell sell these watches as USED for over 600$ in my country (Norway). Watchmakers have these watches too but they sell at almost 800$. Either my country is crazy or massdrop is crazy (or both).
The watch looks amazing and works perfectly! One of my best looking watches. The hand that shows seconds is a little bit off though, and that annoys me a little. Edit: It broke after 6 months and support isn’t responding.
Very nicely made, true Swiss quality unlike the craptastic Glycine (think Invicta with lower quality...) everyone seems to get in a twist about. And Massdrop delivered a decent discount on the metal bracelet version...
Only thing missing is a screw down crow, but this is not really a true diver.
ckm5I would buy another Glycine any day over one of these cheap Costco watches. Love my Combat Subs, both are not COSC, but are tuned and both are no worse that -3/+2 seconds per day. Damn good for an ETA 2824-2.. Invicta now owns the company yes, but it seems to be leaving Glycine to do what they do best and not muck with them,
OldFinnSorry, I have about >$10k of watches (Omega, Mido, Rado, Ocean7, Eterna and a bunch of vintage watches, check my profile for a picture of all the watches I own) and the Glycine is by far the worst purchase ever. The Victorinox is 100x better finished than the Glycine, which has sharp edges all over and shitty machining. As a machinist, I would be horrified to let anything out of my shop like this, even if the internals are 'expensive' - and Victorinox uses ETA movements as well, so the ONLY difference is the quality of the case, exactly where Glycine fails miserably.....
But, hey, if it makes you happy, that's what makes you happy, more power to you. I'll spend my money elsewhere. Even Invictas are better value....
