Subject of the offer :
Patek Philippe - and other high-quality brand watches - were not signed in principle in the era of creation, but only on customer request, mostly in the case, but in this model on the dial
The collector immediately and clearly recognizes an original Patek movement from around 1870 with an early lever escapement, wolf's toothing, and the Patek-typical early wide, curved bridge on the minute wheel, which continued to develop and present itself as typical Patek Phillip identifying features in the movement for many decades.

History of the watch manufacturer Patek & Co Geneve (Source: Watchwiki:
On May 1, 1839, the watch manufacturer Patek, Czapek & Co. was founded in Geneva by two Polish immigrants, the businessman and aristocrat Antoine Norbert Count de Patek and the watchmaker Francois Czapek. Due to differences between the two, however, the collaboration was discontinued. The latter continued to operate the company Czapek & Co. until 1869. Collaboration between Patek and Philippe
Patek chose the talented French watchmaker Jean-Adrien Philippe as his new partner after meeting him at the Paris World's Fair in 1844 and getting along well with him. Philippe had already enriched watchmaking history with one of its most revolutionary inventions: the crown winding mechanism. Since then, watches no longer required an additional key for winding; instead, both winding and setting the hands to the time were now performed using the far more practical crown.
On May 15, 1845, the company was renamed Patek & Co. after Jean-Adrien Philippe and Vincent Gostkowski joined the company. That same year, a patent was filed for a watch with a winding stem and hand-setting mechanism. Patek & Co. manufactured its first minute repeater.
On January 1, 1851, the name was changed from Patek & Co. to Patek Philippe & Co. In 1881, a patent for a precision fine adjustment device was filed by Philippe. Joint-stock company - and important inventions
On February 1, 1901, Patek Philippe became a public limited company and renamed Ancienne Manufacture d'Horlogerie Patek Philippe & Cie. SA. In 1902, a patent for a double chronograph was filed.
The company continued to attract attention with significant inventions. In 1925, the world's first wristwatch with a perpetual calendar was released, and in 1927, the first wrist chronographs were produced.
When the global economic crisis led to the need for a financially strong investor in 1931, brothers Charles and Jean Stern, whose dial factory had been a supplier to the company for some time, agreed to acquire a majority stake in the company. Since then, the Stern family's name has been synonymous with Patek Philippe. (Today, Philippe Stern, the third generation of the family, serves as president of the company. Thierry Stern, his son, represents the fourth generation as vice president.)
In 1932, the company introduced the Calatrava model, named after a knightly order founded in 1158 by Abbot Raimondo in the town of Calatrava. This model series has since become one of the manufacturer's classics. The Calatrava Cross, depicted on the crown, remains the trademark of the watches.
In 1937, Geneva watchmaker Louis Cottier developed the first "heure universelle" wristwatches for Patek Philippe. The dials of these world time watches allowed the time to be read simultaneously in all 24 time zones.
In the early 1940s, series production of chronographs and wristwatches with perpetual calendars began. In the following years, Patek Philippe movements won numerous precision competitions at the Geneva Observatory.
In 1962, the world's first wristwatch with a perpetual calendar and automatic winding was introduced.
In 1966, Jean Daniel Rubeli, head of the development department, designed the Ellipse model. He considered the golden ratio in the shape of the round case. The mysterious shimmering blue of the dial was achieved by chemically treating the gold.
In 1976, the Nautilus model, designed by Gérald Genta, was launched. A distinctive feature of this watch was its porthole-shaped bezel, which, pressed onto the monocoque case with two side screws, ensured water resistance to 120 meters. Since 1977, Patek has been producing the thinnest automatic movement, Caliber 240, with a thickness of just 2.40 mm.
Today, at a time of increasing concentration in the watch sector, Patek Philippe is one of the few remaining independent watch companies. The company is also the only Geneva-based manufacturer whose entire production of mechanical watch movements bears the Geneva Seal (Poinçon de Genève).
