Is my Glycine Pre-Invicta?

ROTAP said:

The logo is what's confusing me. I have the "in-between" logo, with the wings. I looked at some casebacks of the pre-invictas online, and they have a 4 digit reference number whereas mine has an 8 digit number. A lot of watchies have a pure hatred for Invicta, but it doesn't really matter to me. It's an excellent timepiece. I used to have Invicta Derangement Syndrome, bit I founf help at 1-800-dontbuythem.

John, I was admiring your watch in the WRUW forum today, what a keeper!
I understand your dilemma, and I care, in fact, I'm happy to pm my address so you can send it here for evaluation. Free of charge 😁 .
I get your inquiry, it matters if you intend to resell it. I imagine Glycine streamlined their production but I don't think their quality diminished with their name. There are miles of threads since they sold their soul, but I couldn't find a definitive answer for ya.

Can we please get something straight. Glycine may be owned by Invicta, but they haven't changed their machining, their movements, their personnel, or their materials as a result. Glycine are still an excellent Swiss brand who make superb watches at very competitive prices. Thank You

Without a doubt, Glycine assembles superb watches at very competitive prices. I could care less if mine is pre or post Invicta, I'd buy it again today, that much is straight.
Overlooking inflation, their watches are 40-50% less expensive than in 2015 (great!). They had a sales platform and reputation then and would have died, so they didn't change, rather cut their prices to survive?
