PATEK PHILIPPE GRAND EXHIBITION

As Patek Philippe enters into its 175th year the celebrations begin with the Patek Philippe Grand Exhibition.

Watch artisans and watchmakers demonstrate their craft at this splendid exhibition, guests will be lead through twelve rooms journeying though the history of Patek Philippe with nearly 400 pieces showcasing the development from the company’s conception in 1839 right through to the present day.

The magnificent Saatchi Gallery offers 2,200sq metres of exhibition space which provides Patek with a superb stage to take this exhibition to new heights. Jasmina Steele, the International Communication and Public Relations Director of Patek Philippe states, “We really want visitors to know about the history of horology through our own history and leave the Exhibition with a greater general knowledge of watchmaking.”

With an exclusive showing of the 175th anniversary commemorative timepieces – officially unveiled later this year – the exhibition is set to be a roaring success.
