Monsieur Paschkoff
Monsieur Paschkoff appears to have owned a number of Breguets, including no.4822, a 'Montre Médaillon Simple' which, like the present watch, was of small size. Interestingly no.4822 was later bought back by Breguet and re-sold to Reverend Hawkins in 1869, presumably the same Rev. Hawkins who Purchased no.3746 (see lot 61 in this catalogue) which had originally been sold to Professor Schumacher. In 1843, Paschkoff also purchased Breguet no.150, a silver hump-back eight-day going grande and petite sonnerie clock with alarm and double calendar (the latter sold at Antiquorum Geneva, 18 October 1997, lot 48).
