	Patek Phillippe
		From the middle of the 19th century, Patek Philippe assumed a leading role in the Swiss watch making industry by raising the standards of workmanship and timekeeping through the introduction of technical improvements (the free mainspring, the sweep seconds hand), in addition to implementing improvements to regulators, chronographs, and perpetual calendar mechanism.
		As early as 1867 the Paris Exhibition, Patek Philippe displayed watches featuring functions that were to become the standard for complicated watches at the beginning of the 20th century; namely a perpetual calendar, a repeater, and a chronograph with split-seconds.
		Although Patek Philippe is rightly famous of the leading manufacture of mechanical horology, the firm is also the forefront of the industry as producers of industrial and electronic timekeepers, with its highly accurate master-clocks installed in power stations, hospitals, airports, and other public buildings and factories.

		Patek Philippe is not among the oldest Swiss watchmakers--that distinction falls to Blancpain (1735), Vacheron Constantin (1755), and Perrelet (1777), and it’s not among the top selling, that distinction would largely go to watches in the more popular price ranges, such as Timex and Seiko.
		Patek Philippe meets the requirements of the Geneva Seal--a mark of distinction, which began in 1886 as a way to ensure origin and craftsmanship of clocks and watches.
		Philippe Stern, whose family acquired the company in 1932, is the third generation to head the company, and plans are underway for the succession of Thierry Stern, the president’s son, to continue the tradition.
