Does anyone have experience with Guinand?

I found a Guinand 40.50.02 flieger/chronograph for sale, but I'm unfamiliar with the brand. The little research I've done seems to show that its a well built watch. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? Can you tell me about it? Thanks!

I owned one . It had the manual wind version of a 7750 ETA. A nice movement without that wobbly rotor they are infamous for. The watch itself was a 24hour dial and quite quirky. Well made, as you would expect from a brand owned and run by Helmut Sinn. They no longer operate since Sinn's retirement at 98years old .
