Glycine combat sub gmt
It’s got all the specs I would want in a watch one could buy for $500: a sellita sw300 gmt movement, 200m water resistance, very slim case, 42mm but nice curved lugs that make it fit well.
Despite all these upsides, I can’t seem to attach myself to this watch and it’s gotten little wrist time. Maybe it’s because of how I feel about glycine as a brand.

Uh... How do you feel about the brand, tho?
Brown leather worn look straps work well on it too. Maybe use the watch for a specific occasion/events like casual wear say with jeans going to the pub.
Yeah, what exactly do you have against the brand?
That is one of the best values for money IMO. Should be easy to sell. You can always come back to one if you change your mind down the road
I'm not crazy about GMTs, but your combat sub looks great. I've got two myself, one a bronze that came with a rubber strap. But it goes great with several fabric straps and just got an Artem sailcloth for it - dresses it up. Try getting some single-pass Chevrons from Crown & Buckle (more substantial than the typical NATO straps) or leather or sailcloth. Great way to reinvigorate a once-boring watch.

Glyciine is GOD TIER! Most underrated brand ever!!! 😅
Ignorant opinion here... But I'm hard core about swapping straps to get the right complimentary look. I believe this is what keeps my rotation heavy and even with my collection. However, if it's a brand image issue, no amount of straps can help with that. Interestingly, I'm huge on loving bronze watches AND GMTs.
I think it looks great. As others have already said, a strap change might make a huge difference.

Yes v curious to know how you feel about the brand.
Personally I think they make great value watches and have a great history/heritage.
The Combat Sub at the right price is one of the best value propositions in affordable watches - in my opinion.
