New one in the works ... any guesses
Okay, so haven't posted one of these in awhile. Have a new one on order that is currently in its nascent stages. Very excited to follow this watchmaker's progress as things start to come together. Any guesses? Darren...
If the ratchet wheel is the only hint....
...it should be german - Dornblüth?? Best regards Suitbert
Yes, could be....
....but this watchmaker looks like he's married :-) But that's just a poor man's Miss Marple attempt
The watchmaker...
...is wearing a handcuff wedding ring in the photo. :-) Cheers, pplater.
Should be German...
due to the winding wheel with typical double solar finish ("Glashütter Sonnenschliff"). My first guess was Dornblüth, but may be it is from Dresden - Lang & Heyne or from Marcos father Rolf Lang?
Okay, so the region has been guessed.....
however not the watchmaker. Hope to have more scans to share soon. Darren
A couple of regions have been mentioned Darren...
...which one is correct? Cheers, pplater.
Yes, yes ... suppose I'm being a bit of a tease here.....
You are correct that more than one region has been guessed in this thread. Here's a hint that I suspect will ultimately give away the secret - if I told you which guess as to region was the correct one, it is highly likely you would be able to zero in on ...
Going out on a limb, then...
...and knowing something of your admirable talent for being ahead of the curve in commissioning pieces by Indie stars, could this be a piece by Keaton Myrick, from Sisters, Oregon, USA? Cheers, pplater.
A worthy guess, but alas.....
the watchmaker responsible for the work in the above scans does not hail from either the United States or Germany. I suspect this may be the clue that "breaks the camel's back". I'll post more scans as soon as I receive them, but am willing to continue en...
Japanese watchmaker???
May I hazard a guess that it is the work of Japanese watchmaker Masahiro Kikuno. It is my first post , please be gentle with me.
Bingo! You guessed both the region....
and the watchmaker. Well done. I'm hoping for additional scans throughout the process - seeing the watch come into being is half the fun. Darren
hey hey! I knew that gut feeling was there for a reason!
Something about that workshop!! Wonderful and waiting to see more, great choice of watchmaker!! S ;)
