The Glycine caliber GL224 is a Swiss made automatic watch movement. As of 2016, Glycine Watch SA is owned by Invicta Watch Group.

ETA or Sellita Base:

The early Glycine caliber GL224 movement was based on the ETA caliber 2824-2. There may still be some of the ETA pieces out in the wild, but most of the newer GL224 powered watches available are based on the Sellita SW 200-1 – but you never know. The GL224 is what Caliber Corner refers to as a Forrest Gump Movement.

Glycine Caliber Gl224 2824 2

The movement pictured above is an earlier caliber GL 224 based on the ETA caliber 2824-2 with a custom branded Glycine rotor. This example was found in a pre-Invicta F104 watch.

Pictured below is an example of a GL224 based on a Sellita caliber SW200-1 with a custom rotor. The image was submitted by Brad (from the comment section of this post) of the movement found in his Glycine Combat watch.

Glycine Caliber Gl224 Sw200 1

How do I know which movement is in my watch?

Throughout the official Glycine documentation and technical data, they only refer to the caliber GL224 as a Swiss automatic movement. ETA and Sellita both engrave their logo and caliber number below the balance wheel, however, the easiest way to tell if your Glycine watch has the ETA or Sellita is by the jewel count on the rotor. If your GL224 powered watch has the ETA 2824-2, it will say 25 jewels. If your watch has the Sellita caliber SW200-1, the jewel count will be 26.

Why are they the same caliber number?

Glycine is currently owned by Invicta watch Group, which has been known to change base calibers in their watches while maintaining the same caliber number. Even though the SW200-1 is a clone of the 2824-2, they are not the same movement. For that reason, it would be beneficial to the watch community if they identified the movements with different caliber numbers, or at least added an indicator such as GL224-2. Since the GL224 can be either an ETA or Sellita, you might not know which you are getting, especially from sellers that don’t show the back of the watch.

GL 224 or GL224?

The official Glycine documentation refers to this caliber as GL224 without a space, but as you can see in the ETA powered movement at the top of this post, the rotor is engraved: Cal. No GL 224, with a space. The Sellita based image submitted by Brad is engraved: Cal. No GL224, without a space.

It’s possible that Glycine got rid of the space when they switched from the 2824-2 to the SW200-1, but this is doubtful because datasheets of older models powered by the 2824-2 were written the same way (GL224), despite the rotor having GL 224. Glycine provides limited documentation and images on their official website. If you have a 25 jewels ETA based GL224, please comment below if the caliber number on your rotor has a space or not.

Examples of watches with this movement:

Below is an ETA 2824-2 based GL224 movement found in a pre-Invicta Glycine F-104.

The rotor indicates 25 jewel not 26. I’m sure Glycine will need to switch to the SW200 as it’s base given Swatch Groups shift away from reselling ETA outside of their brands

since Invicta Glycine and change the crown logo by adding wings on the side of it making it look more like the Invicta, which looks like the longine or the briefly logos, Invicta also has it at 26 Jewel or at least the gl0102 has 26 jewels, and I imagine the others do as well.
Besides it was Sellita making the 2824-2 movement for the ETA Swatch group.
previously there was a – 1 + a – 3 but Swatch group decided to get rid of those.

There is actually a one-year injunction against the Swatch group for forcing other companies to put the 2824 movement inside their watches and the number of other things are going on with the Swatch group and shoving in the 2824 movement inside watches like jaulinna Jean which they own among 50 and other brands such as army gun Hamilton and Tissot and many more. the Swatch group also pulled all parts and I’ll repair is away from everybody in the world and controls all work on their watches.

Most watchers worth are green and salt are there weight in gold? LOL can fix any 2824 movement or the clone no matter who makes it. Very basic standard movement. If you want to have it done locally and not send it out then price the repair at the current rulers that you have confidence in that can fix your movement. But they’ll have to be able to get parts. If it’s not the solita group or the STP group and is likely the sellita group then you’ll be fine for parts but if it’s the Swatch group you’re screwed.… Read more »

I’m not a watchmaker so I can’t open and compare the movements to win this argument. So I’ll just leave it at this: I’ve never seen ‘finish elaborated’ used to describe decorated rotor and plate. I think they mean the elabore grade and there is a bit of a language inaccuracy in their description. Cheers!

I have just found the makers mark on the edge of the movement above the balance wheel. My GL224 has a sw200-1 movement.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with the SW200-1, but if you are using a different ebauche it should be a different Caliber No. to differentiate. The two movements are not the same, even if it is a clone.

Brand new watch, only holding about 2 hours of power reserve before stopping. F104 model 48 mm size. Tested it fully wound in different positions and with it on the wrist all day. This could be why Glycine is giving all of their watches to grey market sellers at 75% off. There’s possibly something wrong with Glycine watches, don’t let the low prices full you. AVOID.

Last week I received a Combat 6, 36mm expecting the ETA 2824 to find that the jewel count was noted to be 26 and eventually identified the SW 200-1 stamp on perimeter of movement. I’d have to say I wasn’t entirely surprised given what I have read about the SW family and it’s umbilical relationship with ETA. So, I set (hacked) the time as of about 15:00 on Thursday Jan 18th and strapped it on. Worn during next 3 days exclusive of rest of collection, than had it on Wolf winder until this A.M.

My jeweler and watch repair specialist advised me the same thing about my Glycine Combat 6 Model GL0115 w/caliber GL280 26 jewels.
He said that 26 jewels is in fact a Sellita SW200 base movement. My watch day/date has stopped and needs repair. The warranty is still good and cost me little to ship to Utah where the service center for Glycine is.

I prefer “work watches,” and have been looking at the Glycine combat sub. Am used to ETA 2824 as have Marathon GSAR, UTS 1000mV2. I read that Invicta bought Glycine and from reading this blog, the movement (combat 2824) has had issues. Never have appreciated Invicta. Seems hard to get a Glycine here in the states via AD though many available via grey market. Had my UTS regulated after 8 years of hard use. $350 local watch repairer. Running great now. ETA 2824 very common movement so parts easy to come by. Enjoy your Sunday.

Since I had my UTS 2824 regulated (after 6 years of hard use), it runs much better. I bought a Glycine combat sub 0087 (2824) and time holds well. Regarding pros/cons of getting a watch regulated, if it starts losing at least five minutes a week (my situation), the watch should be looked at.

Have a pre-Invicta Double Twelve with this 26 jewel movement, which after reading above comments, I understand is the SW200. After about three days, zero deviation (during this period, it varied plus and minus about one second). Sure, it’s been only a few days, but I’m very impressed. Purchased it from Jomashop for a total of only $505.

After my last adjustment almost 4 weeks ago, my Glycine Combat Sub has virtually zero deviation. During the daytime ( I wear my watch for approx 12 hrs/day) it gains about a second but when I put it away for the night crown up, it’s pretty much spot on with the atomic clock the next morning.

So after reading this whole thread, I didn’t see the one thing I wanted to know: should I go for a 25 or 26 jewel; which is better?! Thanks!

My Combat Sub 42 GLOO83 that I paid $325 for with Selitta Movement is consistently fast 1 second every 2 days. I can’t be happier with this watch in spite of it being a dive watch, and me not a diver, which I think is silly. It is rugged and comfortable with the silicone strap I put on it. The NATO cut into me and made a super thin dive watch…thicker. But again…the accuracy…It’s been accurate like this for months measured against NIST Time every day I wear it.

Just bought a ETA version 25 jewel and the case is in great shape but it is running 45 seconds slow per 24 hrs.

I bought the Glycine Combat Sub a month ago GL0083, and it is running +1.2SPD.

I don’t know which movement is in it but think it might be the Sellita SW200-1.

Tested results are +SPD Beat error

Dial up 0 .2

Dial down 1 .2

Crown up 1 .2

Crown 9 3 .2

Crown 3 1 .1

Overall very pleased with this my first automatic watch.

Program doesn’t like you to space things apart. Read numerals l-r and corresponding headings- SPD and beat error.

ie Crown at 3 SPD is 1 second and beat error .1, hence the Crown 3 1.1 in the first post.

Update on the watch. Still beating at 28800 with beat error 0.1 and averaging +2spd in 4 positions over a 2 month span of checking.
Opened up the caseback and confirmed it is a Sellitta 200-1.
