Hello Treasure2Cat, I can't solve this mystery but I found a Gruen watch with a very similar dial to yours here : http://www.ebay.com/itm/380462648280?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649. George
I cant find this watch anywhere !!!
See this page (about in the middle): http://www.mikrolisk.de/show.php?site=280&letter=O&searchWhere=trademark&searchMode=exact&id=7#sucheMarker
Oppenheimer Frères= Oppenheimer Brothers were from France and started a watch selling company in 1896. Most likely it's a Swiss watch with the name of the trading company in/on it.
The movement looks a lot like a Baumgartner movement. A very cheap movement but sometimes they can be as accurate as an expensive one. I hav a pocket watch with a movement like this one.
Thank you for the info !! Very helpful !!
