With key.
Most likely made in Geneva around 1820, the present watch combines two jacquemarts and a scene with four automatons: a seated lady pulling yarn from the bobbin while simultaneously pumping the treadle of the spinning wheel with her foot, the spinning wheel and the upper driving wheel are turning.
For a similar watch see The Antique Collectors' Club edition of Old Clocks and Watches & their Makers by F.J. Britten, fourth edition, p. 188, pl. 361.
