There is no glass!!! Or at least I couldn't see it! Very very accurate reproduction, absolute GEN feeling under all aspects. Only I suggest the swiss movement, this one (very accurate!) has the seconds hand that (rarely!) jumps a little bit (sometimes cheaper movements [not all] do it) it's not so noticeable and it's - I repeat - rarely. But the thick rubber strap, the sandblast tretment and the overall look is really astounding.
