Patek Philippe’s highly-anticipated Watch Art Grand Exhibition finds its way to Singapore this year
The Patek Philippe brand is synonymous with the finest quality in the horological world. As the last independent and family-owned watchmaking company from Geneva, Patek Philippe is able to successfully maintain the culture of innovation and excellence that they have fostered since being founded in 1839. Beyond that, the manufacture has also played a significant role in the development of timepieces and has seen it evolve from pocket to wristwatches. It’s this rich history that enables the company to showcase their expertise through a grand exhibition.
Through the Watch Art Grand Exhibition, Patek Philippe allows those interested a peek into their intricate world of watchmaking. The event has been held in iconic cities such as Dubai, Munich, and London. Now, on its fifth year, it finds itself in Singapore—timely, as it coincides with the country’s Bicentennial Celebration. Honourary President Philippe Stern and President Thierry Stern believe that the venue of choice also shows the importance of Southeast Asia to the brand and find it fitting that this year’s exhibition will be the biggest one yet.
Happening at the Marina Bay Sands Theatre, the Watch Art Grand Exhibition is the venue’s first event of this nature. The large space will be repurposed to make one feel as though they’ve been transported to the salons on Rue du Rhône in Geneva, the manufacture in Plan-les-Ouates, and the Patek Philippe Museum itself. It will be divided into 10 distinct rooms to showcase the many aspects of the Patek Philippe universe.
