Wilhelm Triebold was born 1880 in Hessisch-Oldendorf, south west of Hannover. In 1894 he began his career by starting an apprenticeship; in 1898 he moved to Berlin as a journeyman. He worked as assistant to watchmaker Franz Ludwig Löbner (1836-1921). During his stay in Berlin he invented many watchmaking tools and pocket watch components, which he consecutively published in the Deutschen Uhrmacherzeitung (German watchmaker’s magazine) in 1899. Among his inventions were a holder for screws and a novel system for attaching bow and pendant to the case. Triebold held over 30 horological patents. His talent was quickly recognised and the German association of watchmakers recommended him to the Royal Prussian ministry of Trade and Commerce. The ministry granted Triebold a scholarship at the German watchmaking school in Glashuette,where he trained from May 1904 to June 1905. During this time he proved himself as outstanding watchmaker by creating four timepieces: - (school watch) no. 1593 chronometer model with escapement - no. 1610 – a pocket watch with lever escapement - no. 1657 – a chronometer tourbillon - this pocket chronometer no. 1656. The chronometer tourbillon with his own calibre design dating from 1905 he created as special school no. 1657. The 50 mm movement featured a chain/fusee drive with a crown winding mechanism. This tourbillon was the third tourbillon created by a student at the school. It is the last one of three such pieces created under the direction of Gustav Hesse who taught at the school from 1881 and 1915. This watch was sold at Sotheby’s in Geneva on May 19, 1998 for 166.300 CHF (incl. fees). An article in the German watchmaking magazine dating from May 15, 1905 states that in this year Triebold was the only recipient of the prize awarded by the school for outstanding theoretical knowledge and practical skills. He also received an honorary diploma awarded by the Grossmann foundation for his remarkable talent. In the same year, Triebold oresented his three timepieces at the historical watch exhibition in Nuremberg and was awarded a silver medal. In 1911 Triebold opened a shop in Hannover, where he sold watches from Geneva and Glashuette, he also sold Gruen-Alpina watches. Triebold was a member of Saxonia, where his nickname was "Matador". The Saxonia fraternity was founded in 1895 by students at the German watchmaking school to spend their evenings talking shop, to promote community spirit and forge links fort he future. In 1904 the "Altherrenbund der Saxonen (A.H.)" was established. Upon finishing their training the students automatically became members of the A.H. When a former student returned to the school for further studies such as a master’s certificate, they were reassigned to the A.H. Triebold was also a passionate collector of watches and one of the most prolific collectors of his time. He was close to Carl Marfels, who was the most important collector of the early 20th century. Unfortunately Triebold‘s collection was almost completely destroyed during WW2. In the night of October 8th 1943 Hanover suffered the worst bombardment of WW2. 261.000 bombs fell on Hanover leaving 1,245 people dead and the city a field of debris. The city centre, grown over centuries was almost completely destroyed. The Aegidius church burned out and the houses in Georgstrasse collapsed. Only the Kroepke clock remained standing. n Klassik Uhren 4/2006 Jürgen Abeler wrote: "Many of his Renaissance watches were kept in a heavy iron strongbox. During a heavy bombing on Hanover the Triebold house burned down completely. When the strongbox was eventually opened, the wooden shelves were charred and a tar-like matter covered all brass and steel watch parts, which could not be removed with normal cleaning materials. In our workshop we carried out tests with rare acids as well as as formic and bromic acid an eventually found a way to clean the watches". The Triebold company continued their business in Hanover after the war. The remaining collection was split up after Triebold’s death and is scattered to the four winds today. The historical Museum in Hanover owns a well-preserved tower watchman clock from the Willy Triebold collection. Triebold had stated that he acquired the watch in parts from a second-hand dealer at Burgstrasse in Hanover in 1920/1930 and declared that the parts came from the rubble that was cleared from the attic o
