專家說明

The celebrated house of Tiffany & Co., was founded by Charles Lewis Tiffany (1812-1902), who opened his first store in New York in 1837. Ten years later, his catalogue incorporated French watches and clocks. Tiffany probably became acquainted with the quality watchmakers Antoine Patek and Adrien Philippe at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, and three years later agreed to import Patek Philippe pocket watches into the U.S., becoming the first American retailer of the brand.

The alliance between Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. began in 1851 under the guidance of the companies’ owners, Charles Louis Tiffany and Antoine Norbert de Patek. In 1854, Tiffany & Co. began introducing Patek Philippe watches to the American market, including some of the rarest models.
