About Patek Philippe
Patek Philippe is widely considered the greatest watch manufacturer in the world. Family-owned since 1851, Patek creates some of the most complicated and valuable timepieces ever made. The Nautilus and Calatrava are grail watches for serious collectors, and Patek consistently sets records at auction.
Patek Philippe history in brief
- Founded
- 1839
- Headquarters
- Geneva, Switzerland
Antoine Norbert de Patek and François Czapek began making watches in Geneva in 1839; Adrien Philippe, inventor of keyless winding, joined in 1845. Patek Philippe made the first Swiss wristwatch in 1868 and has produced some of the most complicated watches ever made. Family-owned by the Stern family since 1932, it makes roughly 70,000 watches a year. The Nautilus, designed by Gérald Genta in 1976, is today one of the most demanded watches in the world.
