We are taking you along for a proper walk through Patek Philippe’s facility and discover together different workshops showcasing the finishing performed on some of their timepieces.
From cases, to bracelets and other components, this was naturally a great experience for us as we managed to grasp the very impressive set up of this super iconic brand. Enjoy!

The woman at 3:00 is wearing a rolex XD
your videos are awesome, you should definitely get more credits for your work, thank you again 🙂
Love these kind of videos! TheWATCHES.tv is THE watch channel on YouTube! Would love to see a video on how traditional movement finishes are done. For example how to to Geneva stripes.
Kindest regards Matthias!
When we see the tremendous amount of work, expertise, passion, skill and so on, we can finally understand why the price of these machines is so high. The process is so time-consuming and requires very specialized workers, besides the limited production, all adds to make the price even steeper. When we imagine that the final product of such collective effort is concentrated on your wrist, that’s when we start to realize all the value of such beautiful jewel, a Patek Philippe watch. Thank you, Marc, for this wonderful journey.
I like Patek Philippe, but I would be very happy to see a video from Zenith…..like this one.
Awesome video! Keep it up!!
ROLEX sets the bar – PP is sub par
Truly incredible! Great video and thanks for sharing – More please!
Thanks for sharing it Marc.
It exemplifies very well the key differentiator factor between the price vs. the value of a watch 😉
I wait all week for videos from TheWATCHES.tv and they never disappoint. Keep going guys!
Thanks for sharing this with us. Superb!
would have liked more focus on, and explanation of the finishing – looked more like a generic infomercial for PP
Workers of Patek wear Rolex and other kind of stuff 🙂 2:55 5:00
The frame of your glasses are a bit too thick. Please change them.
really enjoyed this, but it could have been 45 minutes long. i want more.
I was literally waiting for this kind of video, tour of Patek Philippe, and u did. I enjoyed the video and was equally amazed as you…
spotted! 3:00 she wears a Rolex Datejust
Nice one , but u haven’t replied my email 🙁
Are you telling me that Glycine skips these steps?
Great content and very detailed. Loved the precision and technicality used to make these watches.
Those fucking glasses.
Very impressive. What makes it more impressive that PP allowed you in to watch all this. This is quite amazing 🙂
I wonder what the future will be like when these artisans retire? Considering the age of smartwatches and smartphones if the younger generation would want to take up this type of occupation? I guess only time will tell. Otherwise, a very good and interesting video.
the craftsmanship is beautiful. i wish i could spend a day there admiring the beauty and precision. it is a shame so much skill and talent is lost in mass production
Wow! I have increased respect for Patek Philippe due to your report. I was also struck by the industrial appearance of their workshops. Thanks so much for such exemplary content.
@4:41 love the fashion combination – a blazer/suit jacket over a down jacket (or vest). @1:21 looks like she is using a bronze rod to polish the case hinge — against a wedge of very used wood! Fascinating – there must be a pecking order of workers – from who assemble and finish bracelets to the movement people to the people of haute horlogerie
@2:10 “WOOOF” !
those skilled workers are the root of the Swiss luxury watch industry .
Mr. White?
I started to share TheWatchesTv in horology forum, hope you guys also do the same to support their nice effort. Thank you
we want “skeleton” watches from patek. always same desing.
This is by fat the best video you have produced, and so far they have been 10/10!!! I dont know how you do it.
Please do more of these factory visits, i woukd love to see the machines used for the movements etc!
