Performance meets aesthetics with the large screw-down crown, facilitating easy grip and smooth operation. Entirely hand-finished and Made in Switzerland, the watch features a full-satin finished case, providing a personalized touch while maintaining the synonymous Glycine style. The unidirectional rotating bezel with 60 clicks clicks positively in place, adorned with golden markers and a gilded red triangle pip at 12 o'clock, paying homage to the vintage theme.
Water-resistant up to 200m, the Combat Sub boasts a sapphire crystal with three layers of anti-reflective coating, ensuring clarity under various lighting conditions. The vintage theme extends to the "sandy" textured dial, featuring bold Arabic numbers at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, a triangle-shaped hour marker at 12 o'clock, and C3 SuperLuminova for optimal glow-in-the-dark visibility. The red date display at 4 o'clock adds a vibrant touch, harmonizing with the bezel's triangle pip and the "SUB 20 ATM" lettering at 6 o'clock.
