Patek Phlllppe: The Impossible Collection
Founded in Geneva in 1839 by Polish refugees Antoine Norbert de Patek and François Czapek, Patek Philippe is the zenith of Swiss fine watchmaking. Their mission was clear: to create the world's most exquisite timepieces.
Patek Philippe excels in grand complications, with groundbreaking innovations like the precision regulator (1881) and perpetual calendar mechanism (1889). They've crafted iconic watches, including the 1926 Grande Complication, the 1933 Super Complication for Henry Graves, and the record-setting 2019 Grandmaster Chime.
With a production of fewer than a million watches since 1839, Patek Philippe's creations are coveted by collectors worldwide.
