Not new but back from new york

this beauty has been at Glycine NY for awhile now! New crystal, service and threw it on a ridinfool strap!!

Glycine Stratoforte

Now that's what I'm talkin about Trev!!! GORGEOUS! Glad it's back on your wrist!

Much like Poli's Hamilton yesterday, those chrono sub-dials don't OVER POWER the rest of the dial...great looking Glycine!

I agree Alan, I don't think sub-dials should take away from the overall watch. Apparently there are companies that view this differently.

HEY TREV, IVE BEEN LOOKING AT THIS WATCH AND SOME OF THE BLACK JACKS WITH THE VALGRANGE MOVEMENTS, HOW IS THE GLYCINE IN QUALITY AND FIT AND FINISH. THANKS STEVE

Yowza Trevor ! What a watch this one is ! I like how the
black numbers and markers show up against that dial !
Then the new Ridinfool looks AWESOME ! The stitching is
exceptional imho. Plus the way the thread ties off near the
watch itself is EXTRA nice ! What a SUPER watch ! You will
REALLY be able to ENJOY this one now. Congrats to you !!!

Super watch Trevor! I've been looking at these.....almost snagged a white dial but someone beat me to it. The strap is perfect!

Nice glycine trevor.When did you buy it? other than the crystal,any reason for the service? the turn around time was really good.last question.Hows it running since the service?

There for the crystal and the fuckers wouldnt do just it, had a whole service pack bullshit! Think it ran better before! I've had it a few years and bought it used and was told the scrathces could be removed, the guy just didnt tell me it took a new crystal to do it! Glycine wont let any of their dealers change the glass, even the glycine king that moved out to Arizona (some old dude who started the service center in NY and know more about them other than the owner and his daughter that runs the company now! Sean, watch runs spot on with the chrono running but seems a couple minutes a day slow with it stopped????? Never heard anything like that and since it doesnt have a running second hand (two subdials) i've just kept it in chrono mode

LOVE the cream dial. I would NEVER have thought to put such a refined looking watch on a rough, thick strap like that - but it works

Steve, old school swiss workmanship. the owner worked for the company like 40 years before he bought it! he still active in the company and is in his 80's and most of his work is with the movement! His daughter is one of only a couple women running a high profile swiss watch company and she designs most of the cases. In the past they were geared toward the military only but since see has taken over they have a driver and a few other pieces! Not sure you can get much better quality from a swiss watch company that puts customers and service first! I give them an A+ in quality and service but some of their pieces can be a bit pricey!!

Doc it came on thick tan leather strap and there is a bracelet for it but didnt care enough to spend 400 bucks for one! Cream dial is great but one huge drawback... ZERO LUME, none! the blue dial has lume on the hands and hour markers and the white dial has lumed hands! This is a daytime watch and the only drawback to a lume guy!

That's absolutely funny. I usually notice the lume like 2nd when looking but never even noticed that yours has none. Wow, either I really like the design or I'm loosing it

Goodness, what a beauty and that strap is Killer too.

I know Robert, some people are just on the CUTTING EDGE when it comes to design! What was I thinking?

I see now Duff that we are probably going to have to get mink off of you!!

Oh and that dial?

That thing is incredibly beautiful! I'm really taking a liking to Glycine watches! Glad it's back so you can strap that bad boy on!

I'm usually not a big chrono fan but, as others have said, that is a beauty. Lack of a running seconds subdial really cleans up the overall look. Big fan of the ridinfool strap, too.
