A little history

In 1989, Patek Philippe celebrated its 150th anniversary by presenting a collection of more than 500 watches created by the company at the Geneva Museum of Watchmaking and Enamelware.

Given the success of this exhibition, Philippe Stern (President of Patek Philippe) and his wife Gerdi decided to dedicate a museum to it. This is when the Patek Philippe Museum was born. 

This fabulous museum traces the logical culmination of a talented legacy.
