Why is it so hard to buy a Patek Philippe?
1 Answer

Why it is so hard to buy a Patek Philippe watch comes down to supply and demand. Despite the house’s longevity, it’s rumored that it has manufactured fewer than a million watches. At the same time, collectors simply love Patek Philippe watches. As a result, there is usually a long waitlist for the watchmaker's new models. However, you can still find pre-owned Patek Philippe watches on trusted online platforms. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Patek Philippe watches.
