Magnificent, extremely rare and important, large 22 ct. gold and enamel single-hand pendant watch with concealed dial. 54.6 mm o, hinged, gilt brass full plate, round baluster pillars, fusee and chain, short four-wheel train, verge escapement, two-arm steel circular foliot, elongated pierced and engraved cock secured by a screw, worm and wheel set-up.Signed on the movement.Diam. 62 mm. Published in the Sandberg book, pages 74-75. Notes It is rare to find such a large, early and painted enamel 'bassine fermée' watch case made in Germany. The technique of painting on enamel had been developed by Jean Toutin in Blois in 1632, barely twenty years before. It is therefore astonishing to see how quickly and expertly certain German artists were able to assimilate the technique. This watch appears to be the earliest German watch enamelled in the Blois manner. It is illustrated in 'Meister der Uhrmacher Kunst', and described as 'the mosimportant watch by Johan Oldnburg'.The watch is illustrated in Orologi nel Tempo by Luigi Pippa, Milano, 1966, pp. 154-55.
