One of the most traditional and intricate manufactures. The brand, which is famous for not needing ambassadors, it’s the ambassadors who need it, is revamping its catalog in 2025. Patek Philippe is refreshing its offerings. What remains, and which watch models are about to become history? Will the value of the timepieces, whose line is about to be closed, increase? Is the Swiss brand looking to modernize its offerings? Or is it setting trends because it represents quality in its own right.
Patek Philippe refreshes range – what’s changing in 2025
In 2025, Patek Philippe is redefining its collection again, continuing its strategy of exclusivity and innovation. Cult models such as the Nautilus Moonphase ref. 5712/1A-001 and the luxurious, diamond-encrusted 5719/10G-010 will disappear from the catalog, as will the women’s versions 7118/1A-010 and 7118-1200A-010. The manufacturer is also shutting down production of the popular Aquanaut ref. 5167/1A-001, the classic Calatrava Travel Time ref. 5524G and two advanced models, the Grande Complication ref. 5208R-01 and the Split-Seconds Chronograph ref. 5370P-011.
Patek Philippe, as always, justifies these decisions with the desire to preserve the prestige and uniqueness of the brand. The company does not allow single models to dominate the market. At the same time, it opens the door to new, innovative creations, such as the Cubitus presented in 2024, giving collectors a reason to get excited and seek out new icons of luxury.
New watch models in 2025 – what do we already know?
Patek Philippe refreshes its offering, gradually revealing plans for 2025. Although the brand is known for its discretion, some announcements are already stirring excitement among collectors. Most eye-catching is the new Cubitus model, unveiled in October 2024, which could be the start of a new line. There is also speculation about refreshed variants of the classic series, which will replace the discontinued Nautilus, Aquanaut and Calatrava. Patek Philippe fans can expect cutting-edge technology, refined aesthetics and watches that – in keeping with the brand’s philosophy – will remain synonymous with rarity, luxury and timeless craftsmanship.
The most expensive Patek Philippe watch in history
What watch can cost more than a luxury apartment in the center of Paris? The answer is simple: the Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime Ref. 6300A-010. It is this unique model that reached a record price of $31 million at the Only Watch 2019 auction.
At the time it became the most expensive watch ever sold in the world. What makes it so special? First, it’s the only piece made of stainless steel – a material rarely used by the brand for haute horlogerie models. Second, it has as many as 20 complications, including a unique audible calendar and a countdown mechanism to eternity. Is it just a watch, or a work of art and a symbol of absolute exclusivity? In the world of Patek Philippe The boundaries between a timepiece and an investment in history are extremely fluid.
