 BESIDES THE FACT THIS  WYLER LIFEGUARD CASE WITH IMPRINTED LOGO IS BUILT OF A SPECIAL ALLOY STEEL, THE WYLER MOVEMENT INSIDE  IS A HACKING MOVEMENT. WHEN YOU PULL THE LOWER CROWN THE MOVEMENT STOPS. UNLIKE QUARTZ WATCHES WHICH SHUT POWER WHEN PULLED. 99% OF ALL MECHANICAL WATCHES CONTINUE TO RUN WHEN SETTING DATE OR TIME.  TODAY, MOST MILITARY WATCHES HAVE HACKING MOVEMENTS. PRIOR TO VIETNAM, ONLY A FEW DID, LIKE THE WWII A-11 PILOTS WATCH. THUS THIS WATCH IS FLIGHT, DIVE AND MILITARY CAPABLE.

PAUL WYLER

Paul Wyler, the first son of German Parents, was born on 15th June 1896. He was 18 years of age and attending school in Switzerland when WWI  commenced in 1914. Considered a genius, Paul Wyler established the Wyler Watch company in Basel Switzerland  and between 1924 and 1930, presented the world with watch designs that were nothing short of miraculous.

His innovations would be copied by just about every watch brand. From US Issue Vietnam War watches built by Westclox, Benrus and others, to nearly every major brand in the civilian markets!

MANY used his case designs. Omega, Longines, Bulova, Girard, Elgin, Waltham, Croton, Mido, Eterna are just a few who used the Wyler case designs.

For 81 years and counting, In addition, the INCAFLEX balance wheel is still in use in the 21st Century. You can purchase a modern Wyler with the INCAFLEX. There has never been a better balance wheel made.

By 1934, the Wyler Watch was the official watch of Italy's World Cup winning team.

Note single case  -  movement w/dial  and steel dial ring, crystal which is  pressed over high wall, the steel bezel pressed over crystal  and long stem tube two part stem with crown Between 1927 and 1940, Paul Wyler would obtain seven Swiss patents for watch inventions. Paul Wyler would obtain 8 us patents. Over 80 years later, Paul Wylers company lives today under new management offering Wyler Watches with the Incaflex balance!

 In 1928, Paul Wyler engineered the Single Case Water Proof Wyler Watch Case System,  then the Incaflex Balance, as well as the designer of the first REVOLUTIONARY WYLER 16 and 19-line precision movements.

With the Incaflex Balance installed in the 16/19 movements and housed in WYLER WATER PROOF SINGLE CASE system, the Wyler watch company was the first watch manufacturer with a truly water proof systems.

Only ROLEX could advertise an efficient water proof case; yet their  OYSTER WATER PROOF CASE relied on the same screw back system as every one else. The only difference was it required a Rolex Case Wench to open, and they had screw down crown. Their crystal system was the same as everyone else . Thus the WYLER was the most EFFICIENT SYSTEM. he eliminated the case back, then added a bezel pressed crystal with high wall  and two part crown.

As far as movements. What Wyler did was revolutionary back when. He purchased top odf the line  movements, then made so many alterations it was said the movements were no longer what they  were. lots of companies added their own trains, but Wyler re-formed so to speak his movements. They were after that Wyler movements.

WYLER  even had a gift of creative generous when it came to publicity and promotion. He once gained worldwide notoriety with a spectacular marketing stunt in 1956, when two watches were dropped from the top of the Eiffel Tower and demonstrated that they continued to function..

Paul Wyler eventually moved to the United States and maintained the Wyler Watch Company in Switzerland and a New York office at the world famous , prestigious, Watch Makers Row on Fifth Avenue [ WYLER WATCH CO 630 FIFTH AVENUE ]. Of two of Wyler's most famous trademarks - Wyler Dynawind and the Wyler Incaflex --. the most spectacular, the Incaflex, was registered as a U. S. trademark while Wyler was living in Forest Hills, New York in 1949.

Though many spectacular watch designs, such as the LifeGuard series, and the 660 feet Divers series,  and the Vietnam Era PX/BX R&R models would follow through the 1960's, his greatest achievement during this time was when the manual and self-winding Incaflex models became the official railway watch of the Santa Fe Railroad.

ITB* 660

THE WYLER  COMPANY'S  LAST GREAT ACHIEVEMENT BEFORE IT CHANGED HANDS DUE TO THE  QUARTZ WATCH REVOLUTION, WAS THE  RELEASE OF THE LIFEGUARD SERIES FROM LATE 1960 TO 1975, WITH THE FINAL REVOLUTIONARY  LIFEGUARD INNOVATION BEING THE LIFEGUARD SERIES  * 660 HEAVY DUTY DIVERS WATCHES , THEY  WERE THE BEST... PERIOD!!!!!!!!

*WITH & WITH OUT THE INTERNAL TURNING BEZEL ******************************************************************

THE ONLY ITEMS MISSING WERE:

 THE TOP BEZEL TURNING CROWN STEM AND GEAR

WHAT WE NEEDED WAS A GEAR.
SOMEWHAT LIKE THE ONE ABOVE LEFT.
 EXCEPT IT HAS A SQUARE CUT OUT AND NOT A HOLE.
 I TRIED EVERYTHING THING

THE CROWN AND STEM ARE NOT ATTACHED WHEN INSTALLING

TURNING CROWN GOES. THE CROWN DOES NOTHING BUT TURN BEZEL.
CROWN ATTACHES TO STEM BY TURNING CROWN ONTO STUB STEM
THERE WERE NONE, JULES BOREL OTTO FREI DASHTO NO ONE HAD ONE

USING A STEM WITH THREADS THAT FIT INTO CROWN
I FOUND A GEAR , FILED IT AS BEST AS POSSIBLE.
 PLACED ON END OF THE STEM USE SILVER BASED SOLDER

PLACE CROWN IN TUBE SCREW THE STEM IN

WEAR THE NOTCHES UNDER THE BEZEL SO I FILED IT
