STERN DIAL HOUSE
The dial on this watch was produced by the Stern Freres Dial House in Geneva Switzerland. Stern was the largest and most renowned dial house in the world at the time. They made dials for Tiffany, Vacheron, Audemars, Marcus, Gubelin, Shreve and every other legendary watch and jewelry company in the world. In the early 1930's Patek Philippe filed for bankruptcy due to the world wide depression and there was only one company in Switzerland that could save it and they did. The family of Stern bought Patek Philippe Watch Company and today The Henry Stern Agency owns still The Patek Philippe Watch Company.

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. Gruen was a great company to work with because they had large collection, great styling, they were innovative and offered great service to their customers. 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
