Anyone know this brand? Carl Gruttert

[WWII70]

I spent a few days in Hannover, Germany recently and killed some time at a high-end shopping mall by the Bahnhof. There were lots of fashion watch stores but I was disappointed at the lack of anything better. No Sinn, no Nomos, GO, ALS or Junghans. Nothing Swiss. Not even a Tourneau!

I did find one store selling higher end quartz and mechanicals. It was a boutique from a German brand Carl Gruttert. Here's an example of one of their automatics.

I thought they were known for standing/grandfather and cuckoo clocks. There are a couple of videos on YouTube about them but they are in Russian.

Fair chance it's a mushroom brand, considering the calendar-with-chrono-look. The only other mechanical watch of this brand I found an image from had a Chinese movement for sure.

That was my instinctive reaction too. At least, the thinking it was Germasian bit

The watch looks exceptionally dull and ordinary, and unworthy of attention.

But it says 1890 on the dial!
