What made Patek Philippe famous?
1 Answer

What made Patek Philippe famous was the Swiss luxury watchmaker's incredible innovation. In 1876, Patek Philippe introduced the first-minute repeater, and in 1923, it unveiled one of the first-ever chronograph timepieces. Another significant achievement of the watchmaker was the first perpetual calendar, which debuted on a Patek Philippe watch in 1925. Shop a large collection of Patek Philippe watches on 1stDibs.
