Glycine Sales & Service Center in the USA has kept the Airman alive during the period 1988-1990.
It was during this periode that Glycine decided not to produce a new Airman.
Since the Airman was a number one selling watch in the USA for over a periode of 20 years Werner Siegrist owner of the Glycine Sales & Service Center was not willing to let the Airman go.
With the permission of Glycine he produced the Airman GMT-2000.

The Glycine Airman GMT-2000 was designed and produced by Werner Siegrist owner of Falcon Watch USA.
The Glycine Sales & Service Center changed it name in Falcon Watch after Glycine decided to ask royalty for using there name.
The Airman 2000 is still available under the name
Falcon Airman GMT 2001 and Falcon Airman GMT 3000 at Falcon Watch.
