Sellita

Sellita's flagship automatic movement and the most widely used Swiss automatic caliber in production today, having filled the supply gap created by ETA's restrictions on third-party sales. A functional clone of the ETA 2824-2, it is dimensionally identical and shares the same parts compatibility. Available in multiple grades from Standard to Top, the SW200-1 powers watches from dozens of Swiss and international brands.

02The community take

Owners talk.

“

The Glycine Combat Sub is widely praised for its excellent value, thin case height (ranging from 10.4mm to 10.8mm), and comfortable wearability due to downward-curving lugs, with owners noting its quality and finishing punch well above its price point. Reviewers and owners consistently highlight its smooth bezel action, crisp font, and a unique aesthetic that avoids being a direct homage. However, criticisms include sub-par lume that is difficult to read in low light and an inconsistent power reserve, with some owners suggesting it may require servicing. Opinions are split on the 42mm size, with some finding it perfect and others preferring a smaller variant. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Glycine Combat Sub highly for its exceptional thinness and quality finishing at its price point.
