Reuge Musical Pocket Watches Stolen
By Christian Greinacher

Hello all of you!  On December 17 somebody stole two Swiss musical
pocket watches from a good friend of mine.  His name is Jan Boettner;
he has no email and no computer so he asked me to post this information
for him.  This crime happened during an antique market in the city of
Pfaffenhofen, Bavaria, Germany.

Both pocket watches are from the well-known Swiss company Reuge.

1.  Watch number one is gold plated, has an automaton on the front
side (a drinking horse) and the music gets started by the built-in
alarm clock or by pushing a button on the backside.

2.  Watch number two has no automaton; the music gets started by the
built-in alarm clock or when one opens the lid.

Pictures of both of these pocket watches can be seen under URL

If somebody gets any information about these watches please send an email
to me <Ch.Greinacher@T-online.de> or <frieder@chris.nameplanet.com>

Thank you all!

Musically
Christian Greinacher
