Johann Leonhard Bommel was a descendant of the watch- and clockmaking family Bommel who worked in Nuremberg between 1640 and 1750. He is recorded as a maker until around 1725 and was famous for the technical quality of his movements; in addition to pocket watches and carriage clocks he produced large table clocks in late baroque-style cases. The German watch and clock museum in Furtwangen owns a carriage clock made by Bommel that features an alarm attachment and comes with a box.
