Glycine was founded in 1914.

Glycine is my new go to recommendation for “first nice Swiss watch”. The bang-for-the-buck you get with them is incredible. It’s a great choice.

Their Combat Sub series is excellent if you like the diver look. The Airman is also nice… honestly, they’re all really great; you can’t lose.

Duty is there to discourage you from doing exactly this. Your country is using “the stick” to get you to buy locally. If it’s available locally, you may pay more, but you’ll avoid duty.

Do you still pay duty on items within the EU? If not, maybe you can find an EU seller.

PPG is a paint company and this is a “merch” watch. There are companies in China that will make cheap watches and stick your brand logo on it.

Without any original internals, there is zero value for any collector. This is purely just scrap.

They replicate all kinds of Tissots… the Le Locle, and the PRC200 is one of the most commonly faked models of any watch

PRX replicas are all over the place right now
