This timepiece originally comes from the property of the von Kaulla family , who lived at Illereichen Manor near Memmingen in the 19th century. Theodor von Kaulla (1833-1900), a cavalry captain in the Austrian-Hungarian imperial army, was the owner of the estate until 1884; his son Kurt Hermann von Kaulla (1881-1914) was born there. The last person to wear the watch on a regular basis was Kurt Hermann’s son Kurt Nikolai Wilhelm Theodor von Kaulla, who died in Freiburg in 1986.
