empressissi™ is pleased to offer this early Art Deco GRUEN Quadron watch for men from the early 30s in gold filled case. This particular watch has the rare 325 movement in manual wind.
The watch houses a rare and early 325 'Quadron' barrel shaped caliber running on 15 jewels with sub seconds complication. It is cased in a classic hexagon shaped 14K yellow gold filled case with gorgeous Art Deco design. The case is in excellent condition, it comes with an original crown and the original cellulose crystal in great shape.
The dial is a factory original hard enamel with Art Deco style numerals. The dial had its hazardous Radium filling removed and was recently restored with luminous filling, carefully hand painted in our atelier with non-toxic Super-Luminova™ material. The same material was applied to the original set of decorated skeleton hands as well.
This rare Gruen watch measures 25mm side to side (excluding crown) and 36mm from top lug to bottom lug.
Attached to this watch is a XL length, brand new 14mm wide genuine leather band in padded dark brown tone with an anti-allergic buckle in matching tone.
