Dear Fabr,
If i'm not mistaken I recall Thierry Stern quoting 60'000 pieces a year in an interview with Wei Koh, at Baselworld 2019. Also in Patek's latest magazine in an article written by Nicolas Foulkes I think that he talked about producing around 60'000 pieces.
Best,
Fx

Hasn’t PP been producing 50,000 watches a year for the past ten years or more? That’s a Christie’s write up. Marketing copy? No doubt PP watches maintain great resale value, but if that’s not someone’s main concern when buying a watch? How about after-sal...
Sure...

The 50k number is very recent

I doubt up till 1980s they were making more than 5000 watches per year, times were different and their offering as well.
I had read that also.

The Patek he talks about is not in my mind the Patek most of us, and 99% of their customers, talk about and buy. Rare handcrafts, high complications yes, sign me up (and help me pay for it). The same for many vintage pieces. But that’s a small small piece...
