In terms of collectible value, no one can deny that Patek Philippe watches are second to none. Patek Philippe, as the world’s one of the best luxury watch makers (if not the best), can still create lots of price record in auctions in the slow economy, proving its unparalleled high collectible value. This brand can almost represent the prestigious Swiss high watch-making industry. Patek Philippe watches, all designed and assembled in Swiss, set a criteria for classic watches and technological creations. This brand is not afraid but always ready to make progress. For example, they add some space-age parts to their very conservative models.
Based on the worldwide good reputation they have enjoyed since the brand started, they even has their own movement certification system that only applied to assess Patek Philippe watches. As far as I know, this is the only brand in Swiss watch making industry that enjoys such a high degree of autonomy.
Patek Philippe is famous for their timeless classic designs. It loves to, not like Rolex, launch highly sophisticated mechanical timepieces of reliable functions. This brand, in fact, leads the high-end watch making. And the brand’s recent big project is to make the most complex watch on this planet based on a pocket watch dated back to 1989.
Patek Philippe is well-regarded and trusted and is regarded by many as the best watch brand in the world. And world’s Patek Philippe buyers and collectors represent the world’s biggest buying power for luxury goods. And fans of this brand can be found all corners of the world.
