[Verification](https://imgur.com/a/EEWjV4l) **Glycine Tank**- Likely from the 1950s, 28mm steel case / 18mm lugs and 42mm lug to lug. Manual wind 18j movement (it's a big hard to wind by design due to the very small crown). Dial does show some light marks around the outer edges but overall very nice for the age. Comes on a new dark brown leather strap (does not include the bracelet in the picture link below). Asking $199 shipped, net of fees [Pictures](https://imgur.com/a/GkDEugb)

	Established:	1914
	Website:	http://glycine-watch.ch/
	Country of Origin:	Switzerland

Since its founding by Eugène Meylan in 1914, Glycine has been producing watches at its factory in Bienne, Switzerland.

Meylan was an uncompromising watch engineer who strove for perfection and nothing less. He had a profound understanding of both the market demands and the possibilities offered by the technological advances of the time. Very soon, he succeeded in producing extremely precise, small movements for ladies watches, enabling Glycine to put on the market the finest miniature movements, clad in precious gold and platinum cases, often studded with diamonds.

Glycine became a supplier to the wealthy people who valued highly these works of fine craftsmanship. However, Meylan did not stop there. Around 1931, he presented to the world market a well-functioning self-winding watch, entirely of his own invention, a sensational performance that, for lack of capital, could not be exploited commercially. Some of these GLYCINE Eugène Meylan SA self-winding watches can still be found in the collectors' market.
