2.0259 Bueche-Girod Musical Alarm 1970’s Swiss

Today we have a rarely seen Bueche-Girod Musical Alarm pocket watch. A true testament to fine swiss craftsmanship as this watch combines both high quality movement as well as a musical movement made by Reuege, a renown swiss company that makes musical complications for clocks and watches (incl. MB&F, etc). This piece can be placed like a desktop clock as the two crowns allows it to stand sturdily. The mechanical music sounds absolutely wonderful on all surfaces however in our experiences with this piece, it sounds incredible when placed on a wooden desk.
