LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This is a rare watch by legendary house of Gruen. It is entirely original with no changes on it since it was new. 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.
