About the “Good Buddy Son” Brand

Based on the dial inscription in your photos (“Good Buddy Son”), this appears to be a rare or potentially custom/private-label Swiss watch from the mid-20th century, likely the 1950s or early 1960s. Unfortunately, “Good Buddy Son” doesn’t match any well-documented major Swiss watch brand in horological archives, catalogs, or collector databases

Guda watches were produced during/after World War II, when Switzerland exported durable, no-frills timepieces to markets like the U.S. and Australia. They’re collectible for their affordability and Swiss pedigree but not rare enough for high auction prices—similar serviced examples sell for $50-150 USD on sites like eBay or Etsy. If yours runs accurately, it’s a charming daily wearer or starter piece for vintage enthusiasts.
