Patek Philippe from 1925 to 1932 enlisted the help of a series of horological workshops all over the watch making regions of Switzerland for assistance in producing the most ever complicated timepiece.
Its owner was a New York-based American businessman Mr. Henry Graves Jr., who had specially commissioned Patek Philippe to merely produce "the world's most complicated timepiece" - no matter the cost.
For its time, and long after, Henry Graves Jr. Super-complication was the world's most complicated timepiece with a total of 24 different functions, until it was beaten by the famous Caliber 89 celebrating 15oth anniversary of Patek Philippe.
The motto engraved on some of his watches « to be rather to be seen » with his crest is today seen as a sign of excellence and perfection for many serious collectors.
Henry Graves Jr. is certainly the best provenance and we are showing you one of the largest selection of timepieces in private hands outside of the Patek Philippe Museum.
