“You never actually own a Patek Philippe, you merely look after it for the next generation”
Patek Philippe
The camp is a triumph of an aspiring marketing campaign and features two very prominent messages encapsulating by Patek Philippe. Firstly, the possession of a Patek equals success and refinement – the most eloquent observation that marks the milestones of life. The second message refers to Patek Philippe’s generational aspect. You invest in a superlative garment to overload yourself and hopefully become a family heirloom when you buy one. There is a timer every season for Patek Philippe’s men’s watches from big complications to casual sports watches.
Best of all – Grand Complications
Patek designs grand complications are unique and must have watches ever. They have a video about their master piece Grandmaster Chime that we did not inclue in this article.
Grand Complications are the pinnacle of timepiece design. Patek Philippe’s ability to produce such a large range of these most intricate timepieces in production capacity is a testimony to the Manufacture’s unrivaled watchmaking experience. And, while technical sophistication is critical, it should never come at the expense of perfect elegance. Patek Philippe’s theory on Grand Complications is based on this elegant balance.
Minute repeaters are sought by collectors and watch enthusiasts alike as rare mechanical works of art. Patek Philippe has far more collection in production line, confirming the Manufacture’s status as the market leader in complicated timepieces.
Despite the fact that the minute repeater is amongst the most difficult Grand Complications to master, Patek Philippe is constantly pushing the limits of professional prowess by combining the minute repeater concept with other complications.
Ellipse D’OR 5738
Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse platinum watch and cufflinks package celebrating Patek Philippe’s 50th anniversary.
The Golden Ellipse Jumbo size automatic watch comes in a visually spectacular platinum and black enamel edition.
This pristine example comes with all of the required boxes and paperwork. It also comes with a complimentary matching package of platinum and enamel cufflinks.
The production of these glass enamel dials is a difficult task. The black enamel dials are hand engraved first, giving each one its own distinct personality.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Golden Ellipse model’s launch in 1968, the watch was produced in a limited edition of just 100 parts.
Nautilus
The original Nautilus ref. 3700 was a stainless steel luxury watch inspired by nautical motifs, designed by Gerald Genta in 1973 and released in 1976.
In 2006, on the model’s 30th anniversary, Patek Philippe released a new Nautilus, ref. 5711, a modern redesign praised for its elegant fusion of historic details and contemporary styling.
“While retaining the classic charm of the original, the new ref. 5711/1A incorporates many improvements over the original, including greater water resistance, better durability thanks to the use of higher-grade steel, and increased comfort thanks to an improved double-folding clasp,” says Paul Boutros, Phillips Americas’ head of watches.
The ref. 5711 became a watchmaking phenomenon in the process, rewriting the laws of the second hand market, where it commands a large premium across retail.
The Calatrava For Her
After the first woman, Countess Koscowicz, who purchased an elegant bracelet watch in 1868 and mistakenly became the owner of the world’s first Swiss wristwatch. It might be the time for her. Gift her this one and take her breath away.
CALATRAVA 4895G-001 currently out of the collection but in the watch market, it is still one of the most desired choices.
