Picked up the black dial on NATO at Costco recently for $240
for 300$ with a blue dial and SS strap, this is a pretty solid deal for a Swiss made dive watch.

They are owned by Invicta. This says it all.
The value is if you like any of these variants and the Costco return policy / non gray market import status. If not, you'll likely see $300~ again, especially on the 42s.
The actual sale was the $240, now sold out. I've been watching these for a while waiting for a sale, but I guess this advertisement preempted me. I have the black pvd version and it's a solid piece. Thickness is the selling point, as it's noticeably thinner than many other autos in the price range.
Absolutely a notch or two above seiko and orient at and below $300.
This probably keeps better time.
However, as someone else mentioned, the QC doesn't seem great. The movement has a bit of a gritty feeling when you turn the crown and some dates on my date wheel aren't aligned that well.
But overall for a Swiss micro-brand at this price point, it's pretty good value. Just need to have your expectations in-line with that.

Glycine brand used to mean something until Invicta bought them. They are decent watches but being associated with Invicta with their shading pricing ploy makes me not want to touch this brand.
