The Swabian apprentice watchmaker Christoph Bühler is in love with Lorle, his boss's daughter. One day the manufacturer Ferdinand Hausegger woos Bühler, whereupon the young man seems to forget the swab girl. Only after four years does he propose to her, but the marriage is not a lucky star. While Christoph, who has long since moved away from the Swabian provinces with his wife, is making a career, he is neglecting his Lorle more and more and soon seems to be ashamed of her simple origins. Feeling unloved and misunderstood, Lorle finally leaves him and returns to her familiar home in the Black Forest . Only now does Christoph realize what he has in his wife. He can be transferred and becomes head of a Hausegger branch in the Black Forest. Now nothing stands in the way of reconciliation.
