The Glycine Combat Sub 39 Sport Automatic combines the rugged capability of a serious Swiss dive watch with compact proportions and a distinctive Tiffany blue / turquoise dial. This brand-new example is reference GL0540, featuring a 39mm stainless steel case, Swiss automatic movement, sapphire crystal, stainless steel bracelet, and an impressive 300-meter water-resistance rating.
The standout feature of this configuration is undoubtedly its Tiffany blue matte-finished dial. The bright color gives the traditional Combat Sub design a fresh and contemporary appearance while maintaining the excellent legibility expected from a purpose-built sports watch. Contrasting black hands and luminous hour markers provide excellent definition against the turquoise background.
At only 39mm in diameter and 11.2mm thick, the Combat Sub 39 offers particularly versatile proportions. Its relatively slim profile is impressive considering the watch maintains a substantial 300 meters / 1,000 feet of water resistance, making it equally suitable as an everyday sports watch or a capable dive watch.
Protecting the dial is a flat sapphire crystal with three layers of anti-reflective coating on the underside, helping reduce reflections while maintaining excellent scratch resistance.
Powering the GL0540 is Glycine’s GL224 Swiss automatic movement, a 26-jewel mechanical caliber with approximately 38 hours of power reserve. The combination of Swiss mechanical construction, compact dimensions, and serious water resistance makes the Combat Sub 39 an especially versatile automatic sports watch.

The Glycine Combat Sub has earned a strong following by combining traditional Swiss mechanical watchmaking with serious dive-watch specifications and remarkably wearable dimensions. The 39mm version takes that formula and packages it in a size that works particularly well as an everyday watch.
The Tiffany blue dial gives reference GL0540 a very different personality from the traditional black and blue configurations typically associated with dive watches. Its bright color contrasts beautifully against the stainless steel case and bracelet, while the matte finish keeps the overall appearance sporty rather than overly flashy.
Its proportions are another major strength. At 39mm across, 46.5mm lug-to-lug, and just 11.2mm thick, the Combat Sub 39 remains relatively compact while still delivering an impressive 300-meter water-resistance rating.
Inside, the Swiss automatic GL224 movement provides traditional mechanical operation with 26 jewels and approximately 38 hours of power reserve. Combined with the sapphire crystal, screw-down crown, solid screwed caseback, Super-LumiNova®, unidirectional bezel, and security diver clasp, the GL0540 offers a compelling combination of everyday wearability and genuine sports-watch capability.
For anyone looking for a compact Swiss automatic diver with serious specifications and a color that stands apart from more conventional dive watches, the Tiffany Blue Glycine Combat Sub 39 GL0540 offers an especially distinctive package.
