Patek Philippe has been successful for over 180 years because of its dedication to innovation, quality, and tradition. The brand is known for its timeless elegance, precision, and artistry, inspiring many watch enthusiasts and collectors. Patek Philippe continues to evolve and adapt, maintaining its status as a leader in the watchmaking industry. Today, it is still an independent, family-owned company, with Thierry Stern as the President.
Patek Philippe produces around 60,000 to 70,000 watches each year, focusing on limited production, quality craftsmanship, and innovation. This ensures that each watch is a masterpiece and maintains the brand’s exclusive reputation in the world of fine watchmaking.
The Patek Philippe watch collection is divided into five main families, each with its own unique style and features: Calatrava, Nautilus, Aquanaut, Complications, and Grand Complications.
The Patek Philippe Aquanaut was introduced in 1997 as a more contemporary and youthful addition to Patek Philippe's prestigious lineup. The Aquanaut was created to appeal to a new generation of watch enthusiasts who appreciated the brand's heritage and craftsmanship but sought a more casual and sporty timepiece.
The Aquanaut's design stands out with its distinctive rounded octagonal case, inspired by the iconic Nautilus but with a more modern and less angular interpretation. The watch features a unique "Tropical" strap made from a high-tech composite material, known for its durability and resistance to saltwater, UV radiation, and wear.
