what i would like to know

what i would like to know is on what occasions such accessories are made and how they are given/sold away. for a brand that boasts itself in making "only watches" [and no sunglasses or cellulars like someone else], i wonder whether all these accessories -i saw on antiquorum and ebay ashtrays, ties, silk, umbrellas, even t-shirts- are given to "preferential customers" and if there is a catalogue of all and everything made with the PP insignia/caltrava cross.

i don't think there is an official calque.Patek don't make these items.They get top manufacturers to manufacture for them eg. E. Zegna makes the silk ties for them, Caran D'ache manufactures the pens for them etc.Hope this helps.cheers,dreamer
Two reasons....

A. To gift unique gifts to certain customers in order to say a special thank you for their patronage.... B. Copyright reasoning. By making several products other than watches, they keep their copyrighted logo and name just for their company and thus not "...
No special occasions.

Last time I was in London's PP boutique, it started to rain while I was in. That is the reason why I was gifted with a nice umbrella. Some other time I received a loupe. Nice quality giveaways.
