- Patek Philippe means watchmaking at its best. Let’s take a look at the history of the brand and the most iconic watch models.
Many watch collectors spend decades studying Patek Philippe, but we’ll keep it brief for today. Patek Philippe was founded in Geneva in 1839 and quickly became a leader for its innovations in the field of complication watches like chronographs, perpetual calendars, and minute repeaters. Patek even made a custom pocket watch with 24 complications in a single timepiece called the Henry Graves Supercomplication.

I have two 5119s, one in rose gold and the other in white gold. These are among the least expensive Pateks but I bought them for their simplicity and elegance (and relatively small small size) rather than price. I don't consider myself wealthy and having spent almost $50,000 on two watches, I'm not inclined to buy anymore. I have a "been there, done that'" feeling but no regrets. I love the watches I own and in another life (with much more money), I would enjoy collecting from the Patek complications line - stunningly beautiful.
Lady watch enthusiast for 50 years... Just my take, being an engineer and a person who works with their hands, I truly appreciate fine craftsmanship. At the same time, I have never understood
the popularity of Patek. Geneva is my second home town As such, I know a great deal about the watch industry, it's firms, philosophy and the people who make these fine masterpieces.
The only two Patek models I would ever consider are the traditional Calatrava, yellow gold, white face with black roman numerals, with or without the second register, or the Golden Ellipse.
Complications I could care less... They are nice for the sake of being appreciated,, but for practical, daily use, no. I prefer simplicity and ultrathin movements. With that in mind, Piaget has
simply no equal. Unlike Patek, from its very beginning, Piaget was a movement house founded by a watchmaker that slowly evolved into a family business beginning in 1874. Published reports
indicate in the early years, Patek outsourced many movements and simply provided cases and final finishing. Historically, Piaget has been a family of watchmakers, versus Patek a family of
merchants and wise businessmen. That's okay too, I would regard VC and Piaget in the top tier and I would Patek, but Patek specializes in complications, while Piaget specializes in
the creation of ultrathins. At 2MM total case thickness, featuring the world's thinnest watch, the Ultimate Concept, Piaget's preeminence in this area is simply unsurpassed and will be so
for what I expect will be the immediate future. The bottom line, choose a fine watch carefully for it is one of the few possessions any many or woman can own that can last throughout
their lifetime, and beyond. Houses, cars, businesses, fortunes, clothes, and even spouses come and go over time, a fine watch remains.
5980R and 5140J are my personal favourites. Classy, timeless pieces.
Czapek and Patek , two , of great Polish watch makers of Switzerland.
Patek is one my favorites. The fact that the nautilus was designed almost 50 years ago and still looks so fresh today is mind-blowing.
No. It simply means you watch taste is stuck in the 70’s.
@@jeanlefranc3817 nah the nautilus is a handsome watch. Outside of the hype it’s awesome. It’s not 200k awesome though
@@jeanlefranc3817 do you even collect watches?
@@thomuijen4263 I don’t collect watches. I own watches (Tudor, Omega, Sinn, Doxa, Formex and a few more) and I enjoy wearing them. Why ?
Only second to Lange
Perpetual Calendars, white dial, white gold, black strap...the golden standard of watches and mastered by Patek Philippe IMO
Just received my first Patek - the 5524R in Rose gold. Love the presentation and the artistry of the form. I’m now hooked.
Also A Blancpain story will be nice too !
Yea 50fathoms is by my opinion the best story in watch world..
My favorite is the 5205G annual calendar in white gold with blue dial. Sublime!
Good choice!
That watch is amazing!
Thanks for sharing these valuable insights about the best timepieces on the market. I certainly enjoy everything Patek! Cheers!
My favourite: the 5205G-013 Blue Annual Calendar. Dreamy…
2526.-
Simplicity & elegance.
A pleasure for both the owner and the watchmaker…
The 5712 is my absolute grail. It's sporty and even elegant. The case is very thin. I would like the whitegold Version, because it's such a cool Understatement and elegant watch.
I own a 5726a Nautilus, my favorite, almost my tag heuer calibre 16
Ellipse Jumbo with Date, Blue or Golden Dial, Nautilus Movement.... Totaly Underrated from my point of View.... Actual, the 5905R, extremely well balanced dial ... Should get more attention
Could you give me the ref of the Ellipse please ?

I’ve purchased about 20-25 Patek models so far. As a brand I’d say they’re fairly uninspiring with a very vintage aesthetic. They seem to be really popular among watch enthusiasts on the internet who are constantly complaining about how difficult the basic steel Nautilus is to purchase, but of the 4-5 friends I have with watch collections in the triple digits, they’re actually a brand that we discuss very little nowadays.
The founder of the Patek Philippe company was Antoni Patek (Antoine Norbert de Patek), a Polish watchmaker. He was born on June 14, 1812, in Piaski Luterskie (modern-day Poland). After serving in the November Uprising in 1830, Patek had to leave Poland and settled in Switzerland.
In 1839, together with another Polish emigrant, Franciszek Czapek, he founded the company Patek, Czapek & Cie, which specialized in producing high-quality watches. In 1845, the partnership was dissolved, and Antoni Patek sought a new partner.
In 1845, Antoni Patek met the French watchmaker Adrien Philippe, the inventor of the keyless winding mechanism, which significantly simplified the operation of watches. In 1851, they officially founded the company named Patek Philippe & Co. The company quickly gained a reputation as one of the most important manufacturers of luxury watches in the world.
To this day, Patek Philippe is synonymous with the highest quality and excellence in watchmaking craftsmanship, continuing the traditions and standards established by its founders.
My favourite is PP Calatrava Travel Time 4934G for ladies. It’s exquisite!
Thanks for the affirmative heart. I just bought this watch and have been enjoying it. Let me know what you think of this watch, ok. Thanks
White gold and navy Aquanaut is my favorite!
Great insight!! Thanks for sharing!
Mine's just a Calatrava. Not exciting, not rare but it's all I need in a dress watch, simple but elegant.
The Calatrava is the best of the mark! Simple and elegant is the central theme for a grail dress watch! Good for you!
Do one for Lange pls
Coming soon! Stay tuned :)
5712G white gold is beautyful..
I definitely prefer classic chronograph ref. 5172G
Thomas, I so enjoyed your video. What watch brand do you wear?
My favorite is an 1885 PP pocket watch. I lobe the heft in weight, the large size and always a discussion when i bring it out attached with its gold chain.
Wow it was needed
I feel the following two are where its at in this time: A Lange & Sohne and FP Journe.
My go too..days i wear it on a bracelet
5134 is my favourite!!
The most practical complication so beautiful executed!!! The travel time pushers look incredible and the watch is pure class!!! Great video as ever mate!! Cheers!!!
Engineer here... The more complex a mechanism is, the more likely it is to fail. Please keep that in mind.
@@alexp3752 very true - but if it is going to be made by any company - in patek we surely trust 🙏👍
Just waiting for my dream watch, 5107J, to fall to $15,000. Been watching for a couple of years.
My all time dream is the patek 5711 blue dial. The ultimate watch of our era in my opinion. Saving for that and working hard to resell my pharmacies.
movement is way too small for the case imo
Great video
Thanks for the visit
Patek Philippe in 3 min for me... great brand, but for the same retail money and ½ the gray market money, I'll take a Vacheron Constantin any day.
Whats the name of the watch you are wearing in this video?
Audemars Piguet extra thin dress watch
It may take generations for the market to realize this, but Lange is at the same echelon, if not above Patek at this point.
How? Please explain. Interesting comment
@@kkumar8941 innovation in their timepieces and movements. And their finishing of the movement is unmatched in my opinion.
@@dsvillalva agree. But their watches aren’t for everyone. Patek has a greater variety of cases, complications,
I thought similarly for about 10 years, then someone showed me a disassembled Lange mechanism and a Vacheron... and I bought ... a Vacheron.
In Lange I really like 3 hz balance, but the colorful movements (a mixture of silver, yellow gold, pink jewels, and blued screws is too much for me), besides, I don't like the alpha style hands and Lange only has such in his watches, and the cases are not very different. .
Vacheron or Patek is complete, Lange has been in the industry too short, fell out of practice for 45 years of non-existence. Lange isn't at the same echelon , imo.
Boring classy watches
A video on A Lange & Sohne please.
Can you feature the Vulcain Cricket? Thanks.
Patek is mostly about status. They are not the most innovative watchmaker nor the best movement maker
But they manage to keep a very high class clientele, probably also more on the investment side than watch lover side…
Can you make a 3 min video on Grand Seiko?
Lots of great brands out there, particularly A. Lange & Sohne, but Patek Philippe is the Rolls Royce
In my view, as a watch enthusiast for over 55 years, several houses are equal or better than Patek. Lange is one of those few!
Patek is a great brand but their exclusiveness has made it hard to get
It's simply amazing.
It really is!
I love my 5726 1A, also the steel 5990 i sold back in December 2021 ill always regret.
I have different to what you have stated in this video. Would and have taken an A.Lange over a Patek. Compared the Datograph with Payek's comparable and chose to purchase the Datograph.
I have a Calatrava (18k) but still want a Rolex...because I see Pateks as delicate Rolls Royces and Rolex watches as rugged Ferraries. Tha best of both worlds.
Grand Seiko!
Grand Seiko !!!!!!
I would like a post about watches from Christiaan van der Klaauw.
Got my first Patek back in 2005, 5036 annual calendar in white gold. I feel as high like I’m on coke when it on my wrist still.
My fav is the Celestial 6102R
Definitely my grail watch
Good watch
What watch are you wearing?
Audemars Piguet extra thin dress watch
My dream watch is Patek Philippe 5327 R perpetual calendar i do not know why dress watches are so underrated
From what I know, it can’t be a dress watch, as it has to many functions already.
I've got a patek philippe but I don't know if it's real can you help me?
I have a friend who wants to purchase a Patek Philippe sports watch. What should he do or who should he contact?
Register with local AD
PP was NOT founded 1839! It was Patek & Czapek & Cie. The company changed its name to Patek Philippe in 1851 after Phillipe joined Patek back in 1845!
My favorite is the 5004
Nice bracelet, or perhaps a piece of jewelry. Time doesn't exist, we only perceive it in our minds. A very outdated concept of time, it's time for a change😃
I would much rather have a Patek. I don't want people to think I'm a pretentious asshole as they would if I were wearing a Rolex. I'd like to keep my image somewhat intact.
Grand Master Chime
Talk about bell&ross
Their closest competition these days is Grand Seiko
I’ve got 7 Rolex’s, think 🤔 it’s about for a Patek Philippe
Can you help me figure out what kind I HAVE ?
you forgot the 5236P. i am a big fan of Ressence but i understand if it is a bit of a you either like it or hate it brand
5170 forever!!!
except Nautilus I wont wear any Patek....and btw...I prefer Audi over Ferrarri or even Subaru....but that's just me...:)
Too delicate for me. I prefer Rolex.
i have the 3800, passed on to me by my dad…im gonna be the caretaker of it, n then i’ll pass it on to my eldest daughter….✌🏻
Antoni Norbert Patek a hero of the Polish November Uprising for which he was awarded the Viruti Militari. Before he made watches, he kicked Russian occupiers ass.
I really love PP but I still think Rolex is the Ferrari of the watches.
These are watches
5205R-010
More prestigious than Rolex or Grand Seiko?
Yep, Patek was known as a Rich People watches before Rolex and Seiko exist.
While many can afford a PP, you have to be rich enough to buy 10 PPs to be able to spend $50k on a watch and be fine with it
@@FABM27 One thing about Patek i love is how distinguishable they are and their design is not very common is watch world...
From afar you can tell the dude is wearing Patek, but its a different case with Rolex or even Mille...They'll thought its a fake one or just other knock-off brand that has similar design with them
The Nautilus just looks ugly to me which I guess is a good thing given their prices and the fact that I want to own a Patek in my lifetime.
Why would they stop the natulus
I don’t understand why the video is dominated by the 5711 even though it is just the peak of the iceberg of the Patek Philippe production
Let’s not forget AP
Ferrari is Ferrari 100% killed it
5270P
Thanks Tom Cruise
But sir my favorite watch is under 50 dollars watch sir!
5711, 5712
Ferrari is indeed Ferrari but Mclaren is Mclaren.
BBM brought me here!
What's up with the black turtleneck? Who dressed him......Steve Jobs?
101 on Patex Philippe:
You can't afford one.
Oggi ,chi è che non può permettersi un Patek???😄😄
I tried it on, it’s heavy and feels uncomfortable, not that I could have bought it anyway;)
JUST TIFFANY
5164a
I don’t know why, but I just don’t like the way the Nautilus looks. IMO their looks don’t match the price.
Long on brag short on why.
Still can't make a hacking seconds
Some manufacture’s dont want hacking seconds because every time when You hack seconds,its shock for balance wheel…
I love the videos and hope i win the giveaway
Because this are watches
🔥
But Ferrari isn't the peak of cars! Maybe Bugatti, but a Ferrari is a Rolex
I wouldnt agree they remain at the top ... look what top collectors collect ... none of them have pateks... kari. credor.. lange ...
Overpriced,overhyped and definitely not over here.
Patek is more Rolls Royce
I know Steve Jobs made it popular and all.. but nobody looks good in a skivvy, my guy.
NO there is no other brand, only Patek Philippe
this is why they don't need to shamelessly promote themselves in every avenue like Rolex....
what about covering the brand Zeno, I received an early 1940's watch that dad bought before going to boot camp.
