Gruen Authority

So going back to that Dietrich Gruen afire linked above. Remember I said it was Piguet setting works?

Here’s a near perfect match Piguet on front plate & works—slightly larger (10L)—but you can clearly see what I mean. eBay item 143643826974.

I understand LeCoultre was finishing Piguet for their top ends at this time (in addition to finishing Tissot et al for lower end, too). I’d say Lecoultre or Piguet was the supplier to Gruen.

Thoughts?

My two caveats:
1) I'm wrong many times a day --just ask my wife!
2) Always seeking to learn more
