Patek Philippe produces around 40 one-of-a-kind works of rare handcraftsmanship per year, that don’t appear in the stores or the current collections catalog. The regular collection is also enriched annually with new models decorated by artisans at the top of their game. “The complete Rare Handcrafts collection is presented only during the show. These exclusive and unique timepieces are usually ready just in time for the opening of Baselworld. Thereafter, many of these timepieces leave our workshops for delivery, so the show offers a rare opportunity to see this amazing collection in its entirety”, says Thierry Stern.
