Hi, I do not know much about this watch other than it was made my the Gruen company, and it is 14k gold. I assume it was made after 1925, as it has the "Quadron" movement which was introduced that year. The glass has some dirt underneath it, and the back has some scratches. I believe the band is broken, as it is quite short, and does not have a clasp. Also, it will not wind.
Inside the back above the word Gruen and under the serial(?) number, there are some numbers scratched/etched. The top numbers (and letters)are "R 9 21 51 C" and the bottom are "R 3 14 53 C".
Any information you can give is appreciated very much.
Thanks! ^____^

Unfortunately, these thingss are not worth that much more than the scrap value of the gold so call it scrap + $50.
