Hora Grandiosa Watch and Clock Transformation. Flein: Rudiger Deutsch (after Janos Bartl), ca. 2000. The magician produces pocket watches at his fingertips, hanging them inside a circular stand. When the hooks are filled, he closes the doors of the stand. When they reopen, the watches have transformed into a large ringing alarm clock that fills the stand completely. Height 25?. The only example made by Deutsch. The original model of this prop is a genuine rarity, and as such, Deutsch crafted this recreation for his own collection ? using modern materials in some instances, to improve the appearance of the prop. The result is a fine example of his quality craftsmanship, and is a mechanically dazzling example of the form.
