Patek is the maker of the
most complicated mechanical watch ever made, the Calibre 89, created for
the 150th anniversary of the company in 1989. It holds 33 complications,
including the date of Easter, a thermometer, time of sunrise, equation
of time, sidereal time,...
Because of its exclusivity, luxury tag, low volume production and cost,
Patek Philippe lost the market and lost much of its business. The Stern
family took over the firm in 1929.
Patek Philippe produces many collectible watches, and is still a coveted
luxury brand
