Description
The fine art of watchmaking: PATEK PHILIPPE is one of the top names in quality watches. This volume presents an important private collection with timepieces dating from 1923 to 1981. The exclusive focus of attention is on the most interesting chapter in the history of PATEK PHILIPPE'S development: the so-called complicated wrist watches whose development was made possible by the firm's winding mechanism, patented in 1861. Uhrmacherkunst ohne Grenzen: Der Name PATEK PHILIPPE steht auf der Skala de Qualitätsuhren ganz oben. Dieser band stellt eine bedeutende Privatsammlung mit Werken aus den Jahren 1923 bis 1981 vor. Dabei leigt das Augenmerk ausschließlich auf dem interessantesten Kapitel in der Entwicklungsgeschichte des Hauses PATEK PHILIPPE: den sogenannten komplizierten Armbanduhren, deren Entwicklung erst durch den 1861 patentierten Aufzugsmechanismus möglich wurde. L'horlogerie sans limites: en matière de montres de qualité, le label PATEK PHILIPPE appartient sans conteste à la categorie haut de gamme. Cet ouvrage présente une collection privée importante réunissant les créations réalisées de 1923 à 1981. L'accent est mis exclusivement sur le chapitre le plus intéressant de l'histoire de la maison PATEK PHILIPPE : à savoir les montres-bracelets compliquées. Le mécanisme de remontoir, breveté en 1861, a permis leur réalization.
