This unique watch Buren is done with an unusual articulated design. These watches were called "Drivers Watches" because they sit on the side of the wrist. This one is in excellent condition and is quite rare. Buren was a private label house started in Switzerland around 1898, by Fritz Suter & Cie, near Bern, the capital. They produced high grade pocket and wrist watches. They are still in business today which means they must have done something right. You will likely never see another Drivers Watch like this, as it is the only we have ever seen by Buren.

This great looking Art Deco Watch was produced by legendary house of Gruen. The watch is dependable and easy to service. In the 1930's, we became Gruen agents in Los Angeles California.

It is sad that they could not, like so many other American Watch Companies withstand the Swiss and Japanese marketing.
Founded in 1894 by Dietrich Gruen. The company had their American base in Cincinnati, Ohio, and it produced a wide variety of watches, including pocket watches, wristwatches, and chronographs. Gruen watches were
known for their high quality and stylish designs, and they were
