GRUEN Wrist Watch, Vintage Men’s Watch, Men’s Wrist Watch, Gentlemen’s Wrist Watch, Mechanical Watch, 1940s Men’s Wrist Watch, 17 Jewels
This is a wonderful vintage Men’s 10K Gold Filled Wrist Watch made by the GRUEN Company. This gentlemen’s watch is estimated age is Circa 1940s. This is a mechanical hand wind watch. The case is 10k yellow gold filled. The dial is cream colored with gold hands and numbers. There is a “Seconds” Sub Dial at the 6 o'clock position. The movement is marked GRUEN, Switzerland, which dates this watch to pre 1948. The case has some very minor scratches that looks to be much more pronounced in the photos. There is one minor scratch on the crystal that runs slightly through the number “2”. Still a great looking watch that is really in very nice condition. This watch has a 10K gold filled stretch band with stainless steel done on the back of the case and the inside of the band.
• Size of the case / face measures 29mm long by 22mm wide
• Thickness of the case is 8.4mm
• The face and crystal has a nice curved effect for easy wearing and easy viewing
• This is a mechanical windup watch
• Condition is Excellent – this watch keeps great time and it has a very nice TICK-TICK sound that you just don’t get with today’s watches… love the sound!
• Hallmarks are “GRUEN” and “SWITZERLAND” on the face of the watch; all other hallmarks are on the inside of the watch
Note: This watch will come with an original GRUEN watch case, however, I do not believe that it is original to this watch; the instructions are for a Quartz Watch, which this is not, so the watch box/case dates to approximately 1970s.

How are RETURNS Handled?
If you chose to return an item, please reach out to me so that I know that the item is being returned and I can be sure to look for it in my future mail. Most items will be refunded fully. The EXCEPTION is if you have a ring resized. Unfortunately, I am forced to minus the cost of the ring sizing from the total amount that it was purchased for. Sizing costs can range from $25 to $50 dollars dependent on the ring size difference and whether the base metal of the ring is silver or gold. The most common cost to me is $35.00 for most rings. The remainder of the amount of the item will be refunded to you just as soon as I receive the item back.
