Glycine has been producing watches in
their factory in Bienne, Switzerland since their founding by Eugène Meylan in 1914.
Their first customers were prosperous gentlemen who valued Glycine watches as miniature
works of art and treasured their gold and platinum cases. Glycine introduced their first
range of chronometers in 1934. These watches passed the difficult tests of the Official
Swiss Quality Control to obtain a certificate for excellent timing results.
Today Glycine's network of agencies throughout the world is steadily growing,
allowing the company to increase production, while remaining within the limits of a
quality product. Strong and reliable after sale service remains an important factor
in the company's growth. Offering excellent value at a reasonable price is an
important part of Glycine's philosophy. The company's strong foundation coupled
with their emphasis on rugged and reliable products with classic and elegant styling
have made Glycine a respected name in Swiss watch making today.
