In traditional watches of that era, the internal wheels were stacked, making the case thick. Gruen’s engineers in Biel, Switzerland, redesigned the bridge and wheel placement so the parts sat side-by-side rather than on top of each other. This allowed for a case that was 20% to 30% thinner without compromising the accuracy of the 17-jewel movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical Specifications (SS256)\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Gruen Watch Co.\u003cbr\u003eMovement Serial Number: 534071\u003cbr\u003eGrade: Precision Veri-Thin\u003cbr\u003eJewels: 17 Jewels\u003cbr\u003eAdjustment: Adjusted to Temperature (as marked on movement)\u003cbr\u003eCase Metal: 14K Solid Gold\u003cbr\u003eTotal Weight: 58.3g\u003cbr\u003eERA: Antique (Circa 1925, based on the presentation engraving from the Cincinnati Traction Co.)\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Running; features a multi-sided \"Art Deco\" case with ornate dial engraving.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ollie \u0026 Osha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50672231153897,"sku":null,"price":1659.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/4759\/2937\/files\/IMG_9907.jpg?v=1773772519","url":"https:\/\/ollienosha.com\/products\/antique-gruen-veri-thin-precision-17j-14k-gold-pocket-watch-ss256","provider":"Ollie \u0026 Osha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
