My mom bought one as a gift in the 1950s while traveling in Western Europe, but put it on the shelf and gave it to me almost 20 years later. It’s a really nice watch, although it’s now starting to show its age. The very experienced watch repair guy I took it to most recently says he only sees two or three Turlers a year. There’s no listing for the company (which I believe is/was Swiss) in Wikipedia, and Google shows no company website, just links to eBay and some other sites selling apparently second-hand or antique Turler watches.

Is the Turler company still in business? Anyone know anything about it? Any other Dopers own a Turler watch?
