Catalogue Essay
Andersen's line of erotic wristwatches is called the Eros Collection. Erotic automata watches dates back to the 18th century and has always been very collectible and popular. Andersen renders his figures with bring enamel and the action is very smooth and natural. Andersen's technique strives to have as many moving parts as possible. His scenes are located at the back of the watch or through the case back, hence viewing the erotic scenes is a private moment between the watch and the wearer. The automata is activated by a push button in the band at 7 o'clock. The present example is dedicated to the Egyptian era and has been retained in excellent overall condition.
