1927 GRUEN Guild Gents Nickel Art Deco Watch
Gruen
empressissi™ is pleased to offer this early and sought after Art Deco GRUEN wrist watch for men - a unique model from the late 20s in Nickel case with a classic Art Deco design.
The watch houses an early quality 315 caliber, running well on 15 jewels with sub seconds. It is cased in an elegant Nickel case in distinctive Art Deco design with decorative frame. The watch has a near mint crystal and a good crown. The back exhibits very little wear for a Nickel case.
The dial is a factory original hard enamel dial with Art Deco style numerals with recently restored 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 Gruen watch measures 27mm side to side (excluding crown) and 35mm from top lug to bottom lug.
Attached to this watch is a brand new quality padded genuine leather band in black, 18mm wide with an anti-allergic white tone buckle.
