Hi, I purchased a men's Gruen wristwatch that is 14 K gold filled 15 jewels, Condruma "Gruen Guild Switzerland, Fahys case, calipher 705 and case type 46. Number on movement 7534, number on case 457534. It has the old style round movement, rather than the newer movement taking up the entire case. It is the Cartouche design, slightly curving inward toward the top and bottom on both sides wider in the middle. The size is about an inch wide and 1 1/2 inches top to bottom of lugs. I figure it is 1929 to 1931 because of the guild markings 1929-1937 and the fact that the case manufacturer went under in 1931. Great shape, runs accurately, face has a nice patina, nice scrollwork all the way around on two separate bands that go around watch. Any ideas as to year mfg, name of model and value sure would be appreciated. Thanks, Guy
