Excellent!
Signed, jeweled escapement model as built by a watchmaker apprentice, likely as a "last" project of his/her apprenticeship.
30 hour time-only
Excellent
This wonderful piece carries the "coming out" work of a young apprentice in the shop of Strasser & Rhode in the acclaimed watchmaking center of Glashutte, Germany.
We have an 11/97 auction catalogue page with a picture and description of another similar escapement model. It was projected to sell at auction in the $13-15K range. This one is WAY less expensive; WAY less. WAY, WAY LESS!
None of consequence noted; dome is plastic, obviously not original, but inexpensive to replace with glass as it should be.
