The history of Patek Philippe

Patek Philippe has represented unparalleled craftsmanship since its establishment in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1839 by Antoine Norbert de Patek and François Czapek.

Patek Philippe is celebrated for innovations such as creating the first perpetual calendar wristwatch and continually holds records for complex mechanical watches.
