‘Digital & Jump Hour Wristwatches by Patek Philippe’

On December 12th, 2020, Charlie Dunne wrote for Collectability about Patek Philippe’s history of Jump Hour and Digital wristwatches.

Learn about one of Patek Philippe’s most under-discussed collection of timepieces by reading ‘Patek Philippe In Depth: Jump Hour Wristwatches’ on Collectability.

“Patek Philippe is known for a myriad of both time only and complicated wristwatches. And while one could dedicate a lifetime exploring time only vs complicated wristwatches, the jump hour wristwatch provides a unique opportunity to examine both. Yet, the jump hour seems to be one of the most under discussed, and perhaps under appreciated complications. These timepieces harmoniously blend imaginative, yet sobering design which makes us read time in a different way. Today, these timepieces are extremely rare as production was limited and sporadic by Patek Philippe and very few examples have reappeared on the market.”
