Patek Philippe Museum Passes Historic Milestone

The Patek Philippe Museum is well worth a trip, should you ever find yourself at horological ground zero (aka Geneva).  The museum, which showcases more than five centuries of fine European watchmaking, recently saw its 100,000th visitor pass through its doors. Open since November 2001, special exhibits chart the rise of Patek Philippe from a humble two-man shop in 1839 to the world's premier watchmaker today.
