Digital tools include configurators that link each calibre to the model it equips, immersive experiences and films, which are joined by large-scale Plexiglas models of movements to help visitors decipher the complications, as well as a whole room dedicated to the step-by-step manufacturing and decoration processes of the components and movements.Īnother themed area is devoted to complications and R&D, while yet another is dedicated to craftsmanship, with a particular focus on the 40 unique pieces made for the Japanese market.
As its Product Development Director Philippe Barat explains on site, the brand has designed a whole arsenal of tools to help customers better understand the expertise involved in fine watchmaking and to help its teams explain it more simply. The educational approach intrinsic to any exhibition takes on a whole new dimension when Patek Philippe decides to set an example.
