Founded in 1914, Glycine watches are best known for their pioneering role in aviation timekeeping.
The brand achieved global recognition in the 1950s with the original Airman, one of the first wristwatches capable of tracking multiple time zones simultaneously. Designed specifically for pilots, Glycine watches became trusted tools in commercial and military aviation.
The Airman 7 continues this legacy by combining traditional pilot functionality with modern mechanical reliability.
Glycine Airman 7 watches are equipped with automatic mechanical movements, sapphire crystal protection, and robust stainless steel cases. The defining feature is the 24 hour display system, allowing wearers to read time in a continuous day night cycle. Dial layouts emphasise aviation legibility, supported by luminous markers and functional bezel design. Variants differ through strap configuration and finishing details while maintaining the core pilot watch identity.
The Glycine Airman 7 collection is categorised within men watches, offering larger case proportions and aviation focused design. Its tool watch aesthetic suits professional, travel, and everyday use. Comfortable straps and balanced weight distribution support long term wear, contributing to its strong reputation within the UK pre owned market.
