yunghan anyone?

[coz]

I have a watch that is supposed to be swiss made. The name appears to be (yunghan) I think even under a loop it is hard to read.
Can anyone help? Does anyone recognize this name and maybe some history.

Thank you

The same Junghans company that makes clocks also makes watches and has been doing so since WW II at least. Of course, if it really is a "Y" then someone may be ripping off Junghans.

That brings to mind something I once heard Dana Blackwell say: "I did not realize they were well enough thought of to fake."

All the Junghans I have seen have been low to medium quality.
