Going through my grandfather's old belongings and found a box of watches from the 40's-50's. Was very surprised to see that this one still worked when I wound it up - been in the box for at least 40 years. The brand is Harman. The back says:
Waterproof
Stainless Steel Back
Harman Watch Co.
Swiss
'1950'
Very little information on the internet on Harman watches and I've found nothing on this particular model. Any information on Harman or this particular model would be greatly appreciated!

I too have found a Harman watch of my dad's. It's inscribed as a 1st prize with his name and the year 1934. I have not been able to find much about Harman on-line except they were in NYC in the 1950's
