What year did Gruen stop making watches?
Gruen stopped making watches in 1977. However, the family that originally owned the American watchmaker had exited the business prior to the shuttering of the company. The Gruen family sold the brand in 1955 and subsequently relocated from Cincinnati, Ohio, to New York City, New York. Find a selection of Gruen watches on 1stDibs.
