The Shah then regifted it to his half-sister, Princess Fatemeh Pahlavi, who gave it to the owner as gratitude for helping her become the first Iranian woman to fly a helicopter. -In the late 1960s, the owner a former military pilot was contracted to train helicopter pilots for the Iranian Air Force based in Ghale Morghi, Tehran. -The instructors were asked by Princess Fatemeh Pahlavi, wife of General Khatami, head of the Imperial Iranian Airforce, to teach her to fly. Various references to this instruction appear in his flying logbooks, including an entry on August 26th 1969 recording “T.V. Phot Princess Fatemeh Pahlavi” of which the actual photograph of the Princess in a Bell 47 helicopter appears on the Iranian.com website. (see link):- https://iranian.com/2009/03/31/pictory-princess-fatemeh-royal-chopper-pilot-1969/ -The date on the website stating c. Aug 29th is incorrect, the Captain recalls he was actually stood directly behind the photographer at the time on the 26th August 1969, he then took the Princess up for a 20 minute flight!-After the princess first flew solo, she presented him with this watch in his flight school office.-He kept the watch in a safe for many years. He said: “The Omega is much venerated but hasn’t been seen by many people. It holds lots of good memories for me, but I thought it would be jolly nice if it was worth something. If it sells, I’ll take my wife on a cruise.”-His exploits in evacuating a fleet of helicopters from Iran when the Shah was overthrown in 1979 are featured in author James Clavell’s 1986 novel Whirlwind. Commonly known as ‘Operation Sandstorm’Princess Fatemeh, died in London in 1987 aged 58.-Further links:-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatimeh_Pahlavi-https://www.sciencephoto.com/media/830146/view/apollo-11-worldwide-tour-tehran-october-1969-Condition Report: - Movement - currently functioning.

He was one of the outstanding clockmakers of the 18th century, producing a large number of fine clocks for the home market and export and was also instrumental in the perfection of the cylinder escapement. His reputation for excellence in design and execution lead him to the position in 1762 of Clockmaker to King George III. For this role he was paid 150 pounds per annum. Roughly at the same time he took into partnership his son Edward with later works dating from 1769 onward signed '& Son'.The repousse of the current lot depicts a 9 year old Hannibal standing before a statue of Hercules, with his sword placed on the altar, swearing an oath to his father Hamilcar to never be a friend of the Romans. Through time the significance and original meaning of this oath has evolved and it is now not uncommon to use Hannibal as a metaphor for an intense and unyielding hatred. At the age of 26 Hannibal became the commander in chief of the Carthaginian army and went on to accomplish a legendary defeat of the Romans.For mention of this watch see page 30 in The Art of the Gold Chaser in Eighteenth-Century London by Richard Edgcumbe where the current example is described as an example of a late rococo case with scenes previously used by Moser.A further example of this repousse scene is illustrated as Fig.61a in the same text.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
