I’m working on a strap/bracelet project for my Glycine Airman GL0074 (white dial), and I’d really appreciate opinions.

The watch already comes on a genuinely beautiful mesh bracelet (Pics 1, 2), very well made and visually coherent with the case, but I’d also like to explore a different personality for it.

I recently started considering the WatchGecko Premium Beads of Rice bracelet.

Part of the reason for choosing the WatchGecko is the hope of getting noticeably better machining and finishing quality compared to the many cheaper BOR bracelets available online.

I made a quick visual mock-up AI (not perfect): Pics 3, 4.

I would appreciate opinions 😊

Thank You

Have a good Sunday and a great week everyone.

Good morning everyone,

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend filled with health and peace.

I’m sharing some photos of my Glycine Airman G0167 Bronze with natural patina. There’s something special about bronze watches — the more you wear them, the more character they develop. And once you own a bronze piece, it’s hard not to fall in love with it.

This is a natural, organic page and post — just sharing my watch and enjoying the hobby with you all.

Best regards to everyone.

Good afternoon everyone,

I see a small distance between the rubber sole and the back part. It also seems to have some depth. I also see white marks that could be anything, but I'm wondering if it could be Loctite super glue. I don't have the boots in hand, only the photos. Has this sole been permanently altered?

I ask for permission from the members to make my first post in this sub. This is my first Glycine, the GL0074.

I bought it completely factory sealed, brand new, with all its original plastics, from a former employee and collector—essentially straight from the store. Manufactured in 2017, it’s almost like a small time capsule.

I’ve always found the Airman models beautiful.

I’m still trying to build a relationship with the 22x22 mesh bracelet. The build quality is superb; it has a strong presence and a lot of shine, though at times I find it a bit too wide and somewhat flashy.

I know most people prefer the blue dial, but this off-white pearlescent one has its own charm. It was an incredible find, especially since this model has been discontinued—I’m not sure for how long.

I sent the details to Glycine, and they confirmed it was manufactured in 2017. However, I still don’t know what’s inside—ETA or Sellita.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Cheers to everyone.
