Patek Philippe are regarded as one of, if not the finest watchmaking company in the world, and here is a spectacular vintage Patek Philippe that is just as much a beautiful timepiece as it is a piece of jewellery.
Made in 18 carat yellow and white gold in the 1960's, this watch is nothing short of extraordinary. To begin with the integrated bracelet is not only in superb condition, but feels so sleek and tactile as it wraps around the wrist. Measuring 18.5cm in length, on the top it is set with twenty six round brilliant cut diamonds that total 1.30 carats, and this part alone will have it admired for its beauty every time the watch is worn. With such an elegant design to it, this exemplifies just why Patek Philippe are so highly regarded throughout the world. This top section measures 19mm across by 22mm, and under one of the diamonds is a discreet push-button that once pressed will allow the top to spring open to reveal the dial with elegant Roman numerals.
Inside is the 20 jewelled manual wind Patek Philippe calibre 13.5 movement that has been serviced by our in-house watchmaker and comes with our twenty four month warranty.
With two watchmakers on site, as well as being an authorised OMEGA service centre, please feel free to contact us to service your Swiss watch all on-site without having to send the watch elsewhere or interstate or overseas.
This is truly an exceptional as well as exciting Patek Philippe watch, and one that will always be admired and commented on each time that it is worn.

A brief history on Patek Philippe:
Polish watchmaker Antoni Patek started making pocket watches in 1839 in Geneva. Along with his fellow Czech-born Polish partner Franciszek Czapek,however this was short lived. They separated in 1844, and in 1845 Patek joined with the French watchmaker Adrien Philippe. Philippe was the inventor of the keyless winding mechanism. Patek Philippe & Co was founded in 1851 and since then Patek Philippe have become famous for high grade movements such as the perpetual calendar, split-seconds hand, chronograph, and minute repeater in watches.
Making watches for such people as Pope Pius IX, Queen Victoria, Victor Emanuel III of Italy, Christian IX of Denmark, and Albert Einstein. Patek Philippe also made the worlds most expensive timepiece “ The Henry Graves Super complication". Made in 1933 for the prominent banker Henry Graves, Jr. The ultra-complicated pocket watch has 24 functions and was the result of Graves friendly horological competition with James Ward Packard. After Graves's death, the watch was auctioned at Sotheby's in December 1999 for US$11 million to Sheikh Saud Bin Mohammed Bin Ali Al-Thani of the Qatari royal family. At that time, this was the most expensive timepiece ever sold. Most recently, the watch sold at Sotheby's Geneva Auction on November 11, 2014 for a record breaking US$24 million.
