A decorative Swiss 18 carat pink gold and enamel open faced verge pocket watch with figural automaton, circa 1800.

Polychrome enamel dial depicting an exquisitely executed scene, the muted green and brown colours very different from the bright and vivid colours of most enamel paintings, the hunt with deer, wild boar and men with lances races by every second in the small window below the sun, while at the same time all kinds of animals stampede to the edge of the dial. Plain case.
