εδω το κειμενο που μας δινει μια εκδοχη (την επισημη).....ειναι μονο αυτο ομως?
The subject of the drop of the Geneva Seal by Patek Philippe has been out for months now. It is now official and we know more about what is to come, even if not all yet.
The criteria of the Geneva Seal were observed by Patek Philippe for more than a century. These criteria apply to the quality of finish and to some technical aspects of the calibres. Highest quality calibres are the essence of a Patek Philippe watch. Still the Geneva Seal requirements were apparently no longer enough for the Patek Philippe management.
Officially there's an excellent reason to go beyond the Geneva Seal for Patek Philippe. The Patek Philippe philosophy of excellence goes beyond the quality of the calibre, as the Geneva Seal does. The Patek Philippe quality must be warranted for the whole watch, and beyond the watch for the whole service and experience that goes with the watch.
The new Patek Philippe Seal will cover the full watch quality through its calibre, its case, its dial, its hands, and even spring bars, in technical and aesthetical and functional terms. The parts are covered through their construction, but also through their materials quality.
The accuracy will also be tested with uncased calibres and then also with complete wristwatches. Accuracy tests will be complemented with numerous tests and inspections that will be documented. The Seal will have lasting effects has it also comprises a lifetime service promise.
Who would complain of such a complete commitment?
Furthermore Patek Philippe is an independent company, both financially and to a large extent industrially as a real manufacture. As an independent company Patek Philippe has chosen "a new label that clearly expresses its very essence and distinctiveness, a level of perfection that far transcends what external statutes and official standards prescribe".
Isn't Patek Philippe enough of a reference, not to rely on third party controls, especially if these controls don't seem enough relevant anymore?
