Patek Philippe

It is unique in horology when it gives its wearer a feeling of exclusivity and prestige. This emotion of uniqueness is the declared goal of the famous Geneva Manufactory Patek Philippe. Here, a culture of savoir-faire is honoured with each individual watch, and a great heritage is continued and developed.

A great history until today

In 1839 Antoine Norbert de Patek and François Czapek founded the company Patek, Czapek & Cie. By the time the first Swiss wristwatch ever was manufactured there, the company had already made a name for itself with innovative and stylish pocket watches. The first of its kind is a unique piece made especially for the Hungarian Countess Koscowicz. The company's history is filled with numerous milestones in the history of watchmaking, including the invention of the perpetual calendar for pocket watches and the first wristwatch with this complication. In the 20th century, Patek Philippe became the benchmark for precision, making it one of the industry's pace setters. The launch of the first Calatrava, a collection of the brand that remains popular to this day, heralded the dawn of modern times before the series production of watches with perpetual calendars even began in 1941. Development from watch to watch, from calibre to calibre, from second to second - history, evolution and unconditional passion for the modern wristwatch make today's Patek Philippe collections the epitome of style:

• Nautilus
• Complications
• Aquanaut
• Grandes Complications
• Calatrava
• Twenty 4
• Gondolo
• Golden Ellipse

Time display as an art form: The watch world of Patek Philippe

The great art of the manufactory includes the production of grand complications as well as the presence of classical segments. Patek Philippe also holds a special position in terms of diversity - made possible by great experience and a sense of style in perfection – as proven by the numerous collections, lines and watch models.

Grandes Complications

The workshop Patek Philippe masters all the major complications of sophisticated watchmaking. The Grandes Complications collection proves this impressively. It is no coincidence that it is considered proven that the watchmakers there have been able to build the world's most complicated portable watch twice in this century. The experience gained from this and from centuries of craftsmanship find their tasteful echoes here and emphasise the top class mechanics of each watch.

Complications

Even the small functions of a mechanical watch can shine perfectly elaborated in wonderful light. This is underlined by the Patek Philippe Complications collection with skilful effortlessness and absolute evidence.

Nautilus

The elegant sports watch in the Nautilus line longs for embodiment in its own way. The rounded octagonal shape achieves maximum recognition value. The case is reminiscent of a porthole and thus reveals its sporty-maritime affinity. Since 1976 it has been a model that attracts success with every new launch and finds its way to the wrists of sporty, elegant ladies and gentlemen in numerous variants.

Calatrava

If every Patek Philippe watch did not already possess an intrinsic elegance that makes it a dress watch, the Calatrava could be described as the representative of this genre in the atelier’s portfolio. It belongs to the epitome of the manufactory's success, is a milestone as well as a guarantor and radiates unsurpassed elegance.

Aquanaut

Since the Patek Philippe Aquanaut was launched in 1997, it has conquered above all the hearts of active people who value a robust watch with a high water-resistance. The Aquanaut surprises with its fresh design that is less classic and more reminiscent of the sporty look of the Nautilus.

This is particularly evident in the shape of the case, which gives a hint of this kinship. The "Tropical" strap made of innovative composite material is the unique trademark of the line. Aquanaut delights watch lovers who want understatement, sportiness and yet a certain "je ne sais quoi" that perhaps only the Patek Philippe atelier knows how to combine in this way.
