This ladies guild has a glittery dial with highly legible numbers following the pattern of the rest of the guild collection. The Guild honors the Guild of watchmakers who once resided in Time Hill, the former headquarters of the Gruen Watch Company. Time Hill is located in Walnut Hills Cincinnati, OH, and is now the home to Lighthouse Youth & Family Services.  A portion of every sale directly benefits the Lighthouse Youth & Family Services. 

The watch is part of our Cincinnati Recycled collection and features a never-used vintage watch case made in Switzerland circa 1960. These cases were recovered new old stock, still in their original wrapping, but due to their age and handling over the past 50 years, they may have some slight imperfections and are not water resistant.

Although the cases are vintage, the watch features a brand-new dial, hands, Swiss-made movement, and bracelet. As always, the watch is designed and assembled in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The stainless steel bracelet features quick-release spring bars, allowing for easy removal without the need for tools. This enables you to swap out the strap for a different style, easily changing the look.

FAQs

No. This case and crystal were manufactured in Switzerland around 1960; while the ladies Guild is vintage out of the box new, it's age makes it non waterproof. It is a 50 year old case out of the box. Treat it like a vintage watch and do not get it wet.

Yes. This watch case is available as the Ladies Union Terminal Watch. See the Ladies Union Terminal Watch here.
