Patek Philippe

Founded in 1839, Patek Philippe has been making luxury watches without interruption for nearly two centuries, making them one of the oldest watchmakers in the world. Few brands in the industry carry the gravitas of their name. The partnership between founders Antoine Norbert de Patek and Jean Adrien Philippe introduced pioneering innovations that would come to change the industry forever. Most notably, Philippe’s invention of the keyless winding system as well as other horological achievements, such as the perpetual calendar and split-seconds chronograph, have earned them great respect from their peers.

Amongst Patek Philippe’s clients you will find royalty and aristocrats, and the brand's commitment to excellence is reflected in its motto: "You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation. To “look after”a Patek Philippe has been made into a goal that connoisseurs share and strive for.

Still family owned and independent, the watch company does as it pleases. Such as to discontinue one of the most appreciated steel sports watches ever made- the 5711. Designed by Gérald Genta in 1976, this watch marked a bold shift for the brand. The Nautilus became an instant icon, elevating Patek Philippe’s reputation in modern watch design.

Today, Patek Philippe only produces a limited number of watches per year, each meticulously hand-finished to ensure the highest of standards. This exclusivity, combined with a rich heritage and dedication to innovation, guarantees Patek Philippe will remain one of the most highly coveted watchmakers in existence.
