Finally this long term Gruen collector got a top grade Fiftieth. I have 5 different examples of these Gruen specials that were offered originally in 1924 as special orders but took 30+ years to sell. Here is a 14k special order 79 50th and a platinum Swiss made case 176 Fiftieth probably from their NYC custom shop but not owner name engraved. 79 is USA Gruen made and other is Swiss Gruen made or ordered case. artbissell
