Glycine Combat
The history of the Glycine Combat is shrouded in mystery. It was made circa 1967 in relatively small numbers, possibly as an exercise by Glycine to secure a US Army military contract. Numbers produced may be anywhere as low as a hundred and up to a few thousand but there are no records to confirm or deny this. There is a marked similarity with it and the Altus Glycine seen a few years later as an official US armed forces issue.
An individual example has been seen with Bailey Banks & Biddle on the dial - a retailer of jewelry formed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1832, and often called America's oldest jewelry store.
