When you own a Patek Philippe, you possess something of rare value. Since 1839, they have kept a record in their archives of every single timepiece bearing the Patek Philippe name. Besides being useful for practical purposes like repairs and cleaning, it is a demonstration of Patek Philippe’s continuing interest in each timepiece and a reminder of how individual each watch is.
“Rarity is the essence of a piece of art.”
