Philippe Dufour

The story revolves around family — the story of a new generation in the watch industry, personified by Daniela Dufour, a watchmaker and daughter of Philippe Dufour, a living legend of horology, and Benjamin Arabov, son of Jacob Arabo and CEO of Jacob&Co. Both are guided by their father’s love of watches.

Philippe and Elisabeth Dufour entrust Christie’s HK with the sale of their "pièce unique Philippe Dufour", specially created to support their " Philippe & Elisabeth Dufour" Foundation.

The HOROPEDIA Foundation unveiled the first digital encyclopedia dedicated to the world of watchmaking.

Made by Philippe Dufour, this Grande et Petite Sonnerie is amongst the most important wristwatches ever assembled. With the initial piece requiring over two and a half years to complete, it became the first wristwatch to house the impressive chiming complication. Only eight examples have ever been made.
