II
The perpetual calendar
A perpetual calendar knows how long each month is and when February has 29 days, so the date needs no correction for decades. The first manual adjustment falls in 2100, a year that is not a leap year in the Gregorian calendar. If the watch stops, it is set forward with the correctors rather than by turning the date day by day.
III
The chronograph
A chronograph is a stopwatch built into the watch. On most models one pusher starts and stops it and another sets it back to zero, while the time of day runs on regardless. The counters on the dial add up the elapsed minutes and, on many models, the hours.
IV · The manufacture
Patek Philippe since 1839
Antoine Norbert de Patek and François Czapek founded Patek, Czapek & Co in Geneva in 1839. Jean Adrien Philippe joined Patek in 1845 after their meeting in Paris. The company took the Patek, Philippe & Cie name in 1851. Charles and Jean Stern acquired the manufacture in 1932 and expanded its independent movement production. A new manufacture inaugurated in 1996 brought previously dispersed production activities together. Philippe Stern opened the Patek Philippe Museum in Geneva in 2001. Thierry Stern became president in 2009, when the manufacture also introduced its own quality seal. The new PP6 manufacture building was inaugurated in 2020, continuing production in Geneva under Stern family ownership.

V · Ownership
Wearing and caring
- 1
A hand-wound watch is wound with the crown, ideally at the same time every day, until you feel resistance. Never force it past that point.
- 2
Water resistance up to 50 m means splashes and rain. Do not swim or shower with it.
- 3
Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
