For the purchase of you, must know how to distinguish between true and false.
So?
First, look at the movement, Patek Philippe currently in the production of mechanical watches, whether women’s watch or men’s watch, automatic or manual, more than 95% are the design of the bottom,
At present, the main mechanical movements used by Patek Philippe are 215,315,324,240,16-250,25-21,27-525,28-20,28-520,29-535(some have been discontinued).
Can according to gone back cover to see whether these movement (with a magnifying glass can clearly see on movement of the machine model and machine number), and, of course, the premise is to must know about the appearance of the movement is, or even gone, also audible movement, it need to see more, accumulate more experience can identify correctly.
Patek Philippe quartz watch production only for women, and completely opaque, so the identification difficulty will be higher than mechanical watch, but Patek Philippe production process is fake or imitation table is with this can not reach, so you can through the appearance of the production process, such as metal watchband polishing, polishing the case to identify.
Second, according to the appearance of the watch, almost all Patek Philippe will not have any brand logo or model number on the back cover of the watch. Except for a few limited edition watches with words on the back, more than 99% of the styles will not have any text or logo.
In addition, Patek Philippe is always known for its low profile, so the logo of the brand can hardly be seen on the dial of the watch. At present, only 5180/1G, 4937 and 7180 are produced, and the brand logo can be seen on the front of the watch.
Third, since the production of Tourbillon watches, Patek Philippe has never exposed the tourbillon device to the dial, first of all, because of the low-key brand spirit, and second, because of the interests of the tourbillon device.
We know that the Tourbillon device was made by the master of clocks and watches: Abraham.
Invented by Louis Breguet in 1795, the colloquially known as a speed control device to counteract the influence of gravity on the accuracy of a wristwatch, Patek Philippe’s Tourbillon is exquisitely crafted from 72 tiny parts and weighs no more than 0.2 grams, lighter than a piece of velvet feather.
Tourbillon exposed has some disadvantages, first of all, tourbillon is a precision instrument, there is also oil inside, if exposed, often received sunlight, will make the oil volatiles too fast, so that the accuracy of travel time is affected, it lost the tourbillon the most original meaning.
If you find a tourbillon naked watch, you can be 100% sure that it is not a Patek Philippe watch.
Fourth, some of copy table of imitation are some of the famous design patek philippe, 5970, for example, has a 30 minute timer and calendar function, near 12 o ‘clock position of the small window shows the week and month respectively, some fake watch maker, which show a week to the window of the window to show years, see more display is 2012.
As far as Patek Philippe is concerned, the only thing that shows the age is the Caliber 89, the most sophisticated portable clock in the world, made to commemorate the company’s 150th anniversary, which shows that the counterfeiters knew nothing about Patek Philippe.
The 5TH, INCHOATE PATEK PHILIPPE DESIGN IS THE DESIGN THAT DOES NOT REVEAL BOTTOM ALMOST, THERE IS CERTAIN DIFFICULTY ON APPRAISAL MEETING, CAN REFER TO ABOVE NEVERTHELESS THE 2ND.
Even if the old Patek Philippe, in the back of the watch will not have any text, brand logo, case number.
If necessary, you can send the old watch to Patek Philippe’s authorized customer service center. The technician will open the back cover and see the model number and case number on the inside of the back cover.
Sixth, watch certificate.
Every Patek Philippe watch has a corresponding certificate, also known as a warranty card.
The model number, movement number, case number and movement number of the watch are printed on the certificate;
The three sets of Numbers can be found on the wrist, wrist watch models on the inside of the back cover, need professional patek philippe technician can see clock in rear cover, movement on machine core plywood, if it’s gone back cover can be directly see, chassis number also in the inside back cover, movement model can find on the movement of the plywood.
In the purchase of Patek Philippe, by the table master on the spot to sign, write the date of purchase, so that the certificate of the watch is officially effective, if the purchase of even the certificate is not, it can be 100% sure is a fake watch.
Seventh, the most Patek Philippe watches are generally made of five materials: gold, platinum, rose gold, platinum, steel.
Patek Philippe has only made titanium watches for its watch charity auction, and watches made of ceramic or carbon fiber can be identified as fake.
