Gruen | Veri-Thin

Description: Gruen | Veri-Thin A member of their Pan-American series, this Gruen Veri-Thin timepiece was crafted in approx. 1945. The Veri-Thin line, introduced in the 1940s, was a significant development for Gruen, continuing the success of their earlier ultra-thin pocket watches. Design and Construction This Gruen features a refined 14K gold case measuring approximately 31mm in diameter, with a lug-to-lug length of about 38mm. These dimensions reflect the classic proportions favored during its era of manufacture. Note the engraving of "Ray Matsutam" on the caseback, providing a glimpse into its ownership history. Movement At the heart of this timepiece beats the Gruen 420SS (Sweeping Seconds) movement. a manual-wind caliber renowned for its reliability and precision. This 17-jewel movement features a Breguet hairspring, known for improving timekeeping accuracy, and a stem mechanism without a setting-lever spring, showcasing Gruen's innovative approach to movement design. The movement in this Gruen runs well at the time of listing, but has not been bench tested for precise accuracy. Signature Features The vibrant red seconds hand of this timepiece creates a striking contrast against the warmer tones across the rest of the dial and case. Dial and Aesthetics Its two-toned face has a 12/24 hour military style dial with gold oxidized hands and a red second hand sweep. Strap and Wearability This Gruen Veri-Thin comes fitted with a genuine leather strap measuring approximately 7.25 inches (not including watch head). Carrying a dark red hue, this strap beautifully pairs with the gold plated case and striking red seconds hand of this piece.
