Patek Philippe at Hettich

Our Relationship

For over fifty years, Hettich and Patek Philippe have enjoyed a unique partnership. Our relationship with Patek Philippe dates back to 1966, when the company’s president Henri Stern first established a link with Hettich’s Tony Chinn as an exclusive supplier in the Channel Islands. Back then, we were one of only a handful of Patek Philippe watch retailers in the UK and, as the years have continued, the relationship between Patek Philippe and Hettich has only strengthened.

This half century of heritage is close to our heart, from the early days when Patek Philippe’s president, Henri Stern, and his family would come to Jersey and visit Tony Chinn and Hettich Jewellers to the more recent years when we’ve welcomed the new president, Henri’s grandson Thierry Stern, to the island. With our shared values of independence, tradition, quality and service, Hettich has proudly become part of the Patek Philippe family.

Underpinning our more than fifty-year relationship is a shared ethos of professional excellence, exceptional attention to detail and - vitally for both independent family-run businesses - the importance of family values.

Exclusivity

To mark the fiftieth anniversary of our relationship, Patek Philippe produced an exclusive Patek Philippe World Time Ref. 5130J - Hettich Jersey Special series. This is a limited edition watch that carries the Hettich name and colours, and replaces London with St Helier as the key central location. Only fifteen of these yellow gold World Time watches with a green guilloche centre and green alligator strap will be made, representing a unique opportunity to capture a moment in time.

We are a family-run company who feel a great amount of pride in our exceptionally crafted watches. It's important to us that our retailers - all carefully selected - continue to speak in our voice and to continue the Patek Philippe traditions. Reaching this significant milestone of fifty years with Hettich Jewellers represents an opportunity to share with a company that shares our values and our vision.
