Edouard Koehn (1839 - 1908) was clockmaker to the court of the Grand Duchy of
Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. He moved to Geneva in 1859 where he was an employee

are reflections of the camera lens. Since this watch is much smaller than in the
enlarged photos, a tiny blemish or imperfection that you could not see when looking
at the actual watch can appear very large in the photos.
