This second model from the fifth generation was most promissing.
From start it was available as 24 hour and GMT.
More importantly are the 2 crowns that gave this Airman 46mm the Old Airman look. This model has put the fifth generation on the right track. Following this line we now know that Airman 8, Airman Special, Airman Vintage V and Airman SST 06 came following in his footstep.
With this 46mm model Glycine was one of the first to produce oversized watches and therefore was one of the companies that made it into a trend. Compared to the next Airman model with a diameter of 53 mm this Airman 46 mm is relatively small.
