You are definitely not far away with your 1910 to 1912 guess on this very nice Gruen. I am definitely not the expert in Gruen's pocket watchesbut to me this looks like a V3 caliber movement from the 1910s. Can't see the escapement on the photo clear enough if it has the typical moustache form. Solid 14k in house made case, the '51' is just the ending of the case serial number so that the parts can not be mismatched during assembly or at a watchmaker's desk. I'd date it around 1915...
