Spotlighting the highlights at Auktionen Dr. H. Crott
Mannheim, May 26th, 2009
During his 79th auction Stefan Muser proved yet again his talent for arranging a varied range of carefully chosen pieces of exceptional quality, keeping even his most demanding clients intrigued.
The auction included the usual wide palette of modern and vintage wristwatches, precision pocket watches, enamel watches and precision regulators.
As in the previous auction Auktionen Dr. H. Crott was again able to present a small but exquisite collection of enamel boxes which fascinated the numerous collectors, dealers and museum representatives. Especially an important and very rare musical gold enamel box with bells was heavily sought after; lot no. 359 was a box created by John Rich of Geneva with enamel painting attributed to Jean-Louis Richter and went to its new owner for 76,000 Euros.
Another highlight was the very fine and exceptionally rare Dresden gold-mounted agate snuff box with porcelain applications titled "Poetry" (lot no. 372), which sold for 41,500 Euros.
It was not really a surprise that the highest bid of the pocket watches was once more achieved by a Lange & Soehne pocket watch, with lot no. 229.
The very fine and extremely rare and complicated Glashuette hunting case watch equipped with minute repetition, chronograph and 30 min. counter in a Louis XV case and with Lange extract of the archives changed ownership for 122,000 Euros after a fierce bidding war.
