Gruen, founded in 1894 by German watchmaker Dietrich Grün, initially operated as the "Columbus Watch Company" before adopting the Gruen name.

The "Precision" line, in particular, exemplified the company's dedication to accuracy and timeless style, making Gruen a beloved brand among watch enthusiasts and collectors. While they're no longer in business, Gruen certainly left an indelible mark on the history of American watchmaking.
