Ed. Koehn SWISS pocket watch movement (assoc. of Patek Philippe) Circa 1895


Edward Koehn was born in 1839 . He studied from 1859 at the watchmaking school in Geneva. Then he started in 1895
as a simple watchmaker for Patek Philippe and after 15 years and was appointed director.
   In 1891,Edward Koehn retired from Patek Philippe and bought the H. R. Ekegren company, retaining Mr. Ekegren as chief of manufacture.
   When Ed Koehn left Patek, he set out to make “a finer watch than Patek Philippe”, and there is no little doubt that he was making one of the finest watches in the world.

This elegant wrist watch was converted from antique pocket watch.
Antique pocket watch precision movement from Edward Koehn produced in circa 1895s in a New Hand-Engraved Art Stainless Steel case. Gently curved elements  are produced with chip removal techniques using sharp burins that not only incise the stainless steel but actually "lift" the decorations out of the stainless steel.
This project has given a new life for this antique watch.
It’s an ideal combination of antique and modern styles.
This watch Would Make A Great Addition To Your watch Collection.
