Notes

The Nightwatch, 2nd edition was made in about 15 copies only due to the complexity of the case production despite the initial concept of 50 pieces. The Nightwatch was imagined in the winter of 97 in New York , in collaboration between Martin Frei and Thomas Baumgartner. This precise watch belonged to Thomas Baumgartner for 15 Jears.
