Essay

Patek Philippe is a Swiss luxury watch brand that has been around since 1839 and since then, has achieved global recognition for its exceptional craftsmanship. The company is renowned for the Graves Super-complication, a pocket watch that held the title of the world's most complex watch for 50 years. However it was in 1889 when Patek first patented their famously known perpetual calendar mechanism, and continued to popularize complications such as the split-seconds hand, chronograph, and minute repeater in mechanical watches.
