Patek Philippe Salons Genève
Our historic manufacturing headquarters has become a landmark in the city of Geneva. Now serving our clientele as a revered sanctuary, the Patek Philippe Salons Genève remain the only place where our entire current collection is showcased.
In 1853, needing larger premises as the firm grows, Patek Philippe moves into two stories of a building on the Rhône left bank.
In 1891, Patek Philippe acquires the building and calls celebrated architect Jacques-Elisée Goss to renovate the premises
Goss equips the workshops with advanced innovative features for the end of the 19th century, such as electricity, lightning and central heating
In 1907, a fifth floor is added to the building as well as an electric clock on the gable. This project is undertaken by Henri Goss, son of the original architect.
In 1996, as our manufacture moves to Plan-les-Ouates, the building becomes our flagship store. The “Patek Philippe Geneva Salons” are officially inaugurated in November 2006.
