  • John Reardon shares the fascinating story of the Brazilian retailer Chronometro Gondolo & Labouriau who for the first 25 years of the twentieth century sold over a third of all Patek Philippe's production. Behind these staggering sales was a genius membership club affectionately known as the Gondolo Gang.

    I have one bought by me great-grandfather with the original box and, after a few email exchanges with you I found the original papers stuck in the back of the box!! Very grateful to have a part of history with me

    Absolutely spectacular watches. The story line makes them more special also.

    Excellent video John congratulations! I knew the basics about Gondolos but certainly not all those cool details.. the weekly drawing system was marketing genius for sure!! 🙌🏻👍🏻
