Patek Collector Company[edit]
The Patek Collector 3711/1G-001, the company's first acquisition, sold for 1,490,000 US dollars in 2023.[13] There is also a special edition watch (one of only 175 examples in the world) called the "Patek Philippe 5275p" that has been collected. The company invested $375,000 US dollars in honor of the 175th anniversary of the Patek Philippe brand's establishment.[14][15]
The Patek Collector Company invested a significant amount of capital to acquire a $420,000 "Rolex Daytona watch" featuring Arabic numerals, which is a limited edition exclusively available in the Middle East. "The Herolux Daytona Wildcat" is a unique timepiece that is made in just one hour using the most cutting-edge watchmaking processes. A celestial map showing the stars in the night sky over New York City, a dawn and sunset indicator, and a perpetual calendar with moon phases and ages were among the complications.[16]
