Gondolo Watches



There are ten unique values that reflect Mr. Philippe Stern’s vision for Patek Philippe, based on respect for the past and fascination for the future. Upholding the founding values of the company is integral to the way Patek Philippe works. Patek Philippe was founded in 1839 and has been in the hands of the Philippe family since 1932. The company controls every stage of making of their watches from design, production, assembly, finish and finally to distribution. The company also runs the Jeal Philippe musuem so you can be sure they are constantly reminding themselves of their traditions and heritage and looking to the past for new inspiration. Every Patek Philippe watch is individually assembled, polished and regulated by hand so you can be sure that your timepiece is of the highest possible quality.

Gondolo Watches


The Gondolo represents Patek Philippe's modern twist on the classic art deco style. It was launched in 1993 and is a stunning representation of the early 30's in a timepiece. The Gondolo demonstrates how the company is commited to crafting watches that will feature in the companies legacy for many years to come; the Gondolo is a success in this regard and it will certainly be remembered as a unique and intriguing watch in the future. The name of the collection was derived from the “Chronometro Gondolo” watches that were manufactured by Patek Philippe for the renowned Brazilian retailer Gondolo & Labouriau between 1902 and 1930.
