What was the old name for Patek Philippe?
1 Answer

The old name for Patek Philippe was Patek, Czapek & Cie. It was founded in Geneva in 1839 by Polish expats Antoni Patek and Franciszek Czapek. After Czapek exited the firm and Patek partnered with French watchmaker Jean Adrien Philippe, the company was renamed Patek, Philippe & Cie in 1851. Eventually, the Cie name was dropped altogether.
