Title: 1624 calibre movement- who made it?

I have a 1960s Zodiac Glorious with a 1624 automatic movement. I was just wondering if this movement was designed and made by Zodiac? Did they make their own movements? And if not who's movement is it?
Thanks.

They were and A. Schild ebauche that was brought in house by Zodiac and modified for their watches.
