This is a true Curvex by the inventor of the Curvex. Gruen, always an innovator invented the "Curvex" watch to curve around the wrist. One of the ways they did it was by "stacking" the train wheels in such a way as to allow the movement to be curved, this allowed the case to be curved as well. It resulted in a unique design. This piece is still fitted with its original dial and has what appears to be the original style vertical faceted crystal. We have just serviced this watch, it is dependable and can be worn all the time for all types of occasions, and you can count on it to get you there on time, every time.
