A peculiar vintage piece from the 1940s, this Gruen captures a sense of sculptural elegance and boldness. At first glance the watch appears traditional, but viewed from the side its scalloped bezel and peaked crystal reveal a striking design detail. The 10k gold-filled case is notably curved to hug the wrist, complemented by the silvered dial, which has been restored and finished with raised golden Arabic numerals, dauphine hands, a small seconds register, and an outer black minute track. Powered by the Gruen caliber 370 manual wind movement and paired with a black calf leather strap, this is a charming vintage watch with a playful spirit and distinctive presence.
