Patek Philippe

Patek Philippe was founded in Switzerland in 1839. In 1868, Patek Philippe created the first Swiss wristwatch, made for Countess Koscowicz of Hungary. Located in Geneva, the Swiss watchmaking company is the last remaining family-owned watch manufacturer from the city. The company has an envious reputation for making some of the best quality watches in the world. 

Patek Philippe have produced some iconic watches over the years. The Calatrava, introduced in 1932, is known for its simple, elegant design. The Nautilus sports watch was designed by legendary designer Gérald Genta in 1976.
