The Urban Gentry

What makes a watch legendary or iconic? Some are famous for their world changing innovative design, military use, or even for going to space. Well the Glycine Airman has done all that and more!

In today's in-depth review I cover the rich history that made this watch so respected by commercial pilots, US Navy pilots, NASA astronauts, and watch enthusiasts alike. I share the amazing story of how it was created in the glory days of 1950s aviation while taking a look at the limited edition reference GL0164. Why does this watch have such a cult following among the Gentry and watch collectors, and why do I consider the Airman to be the best automatic GMT pilot watch under $1000? Has Invicta's ownership of the brand affected the legacy, design, and value of the watch? Join me for another independent, unbiased review of a very special watch indeed. Chocks away!
