A very rare collecting area, the exhibits are accordingly rare and sought after
Offered is a rare, 100% handmade escapement model
It is the masterpiece of the watchmaker Adolf Lichtenauer, manufactured in 1949 in / for the watchmaking school Glashütte, thus a unique piece handcrafted in every detail, there is no other model of the same size and construction in the world
Adolf Lichtenauer spent weeks cutting, filing, fitting and assembling every single part of the model by hand, presumably with the exception of the three retaining screws.
Shown is an anchor escapement without spring / drive with 3 ruby bearings, fine adjustment and a chaton screwed on the back
Dimensions of brass base plate: 2.5cm x 4cm, dimensions of the wooden holder: 6cm x 4.5cm
The balance swings freely, meaning the gear model is functional, but it cannot run because there is no drive installed
Super rare and sought-after artifact, unique, single and decorative piece
