How to wind a GLYCINE watch?

About Glycine

Since its founding by Eugène Meylan in 1914, Glycine has been producing watches in its own factory in Bern, Switzerland. Soon, he succeeded in producing extremely precise movements for women's watches, and Glycine then marketed small-caliber watches with white or gold-plated cases, often set with diamonds.

Glycine began supplying watches to some well-to-do individuals, and the watches did indeed receive rave reviews from these customers. However, Meylan was not complacent and stagnated. Around 1931, completely relying on his own creativity, he designed a self-winding watch with good performance, but due to lack of funds, it was not put into commercial production. . Even now, these Glycine self-winding watches from Eugène Meylan SA can still be found on the collector's market.

In 1934, the chronograph collection was released, and a production line passed the precise inspection of the Swiss official quality inspection department. The depression of the 1930s and the coming world wars were so taxing that Switzerland cut off all its export markets.

However, Glycine persevered and became one of 29 exhibitors at the Basel Fair in 1938, and became an uninterrupted annual must-do for the company.
