Ca. Ø56.5mm, ca. 135g, 18K pink gold, coined band, case and movement with the same number No.15390, signed Piaget, early cylinder movement, repeating the hours and quarters, face with fantastic figure automaton with 4 figures, very rarebination of a normal Jacquemart striking the quarters, carried out by 2 angel figures, with Punchinello appearing in the upper window and striking against the scythe of 'Father Time', Breguet steel hands, enamel dial ring (fine hairlines), in working order and overall in very good condition. The version of this automaton with 4 figures and the representation of Punchinello and Father Time is extremely rare, we know of only 5 other examples. With the 'Piaget' signature, it is the only example known to us! In the 'normal version' of this automaton, Punchinello strikes a bell and not Father Time's scythe. Provenance: auctioned in Geneva, Galerie D'Horlogerie Ancienne Geneve 1987, with certificate of authenticity, price 24,000CHF.
