Compare At $1189.00 
Immerse yourself in the rich horological tradition of the most famous GRUEN design as you behold the all new Pentagon swiss watch. The trusted name of GRUEN has been around since 1876, creating exquisite timepieces that have captured the imagination of collectors all over the world. The Pentagon design that GRUEN created in the 1920's took their popularity to unprecedented levels. This legendary creation has now been brought back to life in a brand new modern wristwatch production. The completely gold-tone stainless steel case comes with a screw-in back and houses the authentic swiss movement inside. Allow your eyes gaze through the flame-tapered crystal and focus upon the spectacular visual display that is the captivating dial. A custom pentagon center cut works smoothly with each line of the case for a sleek complementary style. A dark sandy brown, genuine leather strap brings high quality comfort while locking with a strong gold-tone stainless steel buckle.
 On June 12, 1874 Dietrich Gruen applied for a patent on an improved safety pinion, which was granted on December 22. He was 27 years old. In 1876 he formed the Columbus Watch Manufacturing Company in the basement of a downtown Columbus, Ohio bank building. In his Columbus workshop, Dietrich modified, finished and cased raw movements that were imported from Switzerland. These new watches included his patented safety pinion. In 1894, Fred Gruen and Dietrich Gruen decided to try to start a new watch company. Using money borrowed from friends and relatives, Dietrich and Fred formed the partnership "D. Gruen and Son." By the mid-twenties, Gruen’s sales had reached over five million dollars. In total sales, it had become the largest watch company in the U.S., as well as first in the average watch price! Today, Gruen is proud to share and continue this grand horological tradition with the world as their drive to create extraordinary watches remains the standard of watchmakers worldwide. | "To produce the watch of his dreams, he must have two things. He must have American machinery of the most advanced type—and he must have the very best craftsmen in the world—craftsmen in whom the old guild spirit of fine watchmaking still lived." - 1929 GRUEN catalog |
