Watch This - Patek Philippe

We recently purchased this Patek Philippe “T150” special edition watch made for Tiffany & Co. This particular watch is part of a limited edition series that was produced in 2001 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the partnership between Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co.

The complications and the limited production of this watch are what make it so valuable. It has an annual calendar movement and a moon phase indication, which only has to be readjusted by one day every 122 years. The back case is engraved with a picture of the Tiffany & Co. workshop as well as the Patek Philippe store. Tiffany & Co. is the only retail name that Patek Philippe will display on its dial, and this particular watch displays both names prominently. It also has a “T” for Tiffany at the 12 o’clock hour.

Rare watches like this can fetch more than their original retail price in the secondary market, and are very sought after by collectors. Because there were only 150 of this particular watch made, they rarely surface in the secondary market.
