Probably also worth mentioning that to my knowledge the first man's Gruen wrist watches were advertised in April 1915, which would indicate that there should not be any "United" trench watches for gents.

Nice reasoning.

Jenneke, it is not possible it is a converted pocket watch.

I was considering the conversion because of the hinge and position of the 12, not bc of the movement. But no doubt you can judge it better because you have this nice early wrist watch. Smile

And the plain back is making is a tell tail sign which I didnt notice before.

You can only waste time if you forget to enjoy it - Loesje
