Rare Gruen "Strap Model 158" men's Art Deco design wristwatch in nickel with black enamel bezel, circa 1929.

The "Model 158" was priced at $37.50 in 1929. It is quite rare and very difficult to find without significant case corrosion or damaged enamel. This is one of only a handful I have ever seen. It is in excellent condition showing only light wear, but no case corrosion. Black enamel bezel is excellent, with only a couple of tiny chips near VI. Caseback is excellent and unengraved. Case measures 36mm long and 29mm wide. Original enamel inlaid dial is excellent. Has new glass crystal. The watch is powered by its correct 15-jewel Gruen grade 315 manual wind movement, just serviced and running strong.

Price $625. SOLD
