To some point
Hi
To some point yes you have to be born in Philippe Stern's family to be his son.....generally. 
Then after 19 years working for Patek Philippe I guess Philippe Stern has had the time to see his son show leading and managerial capacities, to prove his value for this position.....

Cheers

Thank you Jerome..................
I would like to wish Thiery all the best for the future. I am sure that Patek Philippe is in very safe hands and that the continued history of this marvelous company is assured for the next generation. Not bad for a gentelman, who is yet to turn 40!

I wonder...
I wonder if Jr. will marry if only for the company. Oh, he's got a sister.
I guess it is
Hi, I guess it is, even if some presidents may still get very down to earth for some decisions of the day (re design, communication, hiring someone, ....). Cheers Dje
Thanks for the info. Jerome.nt

Leave Las Vegas with great Patek gifts and fond memories

Hmmm...
Hmmm... A college drop-out as President of Patek Philippe. I guess it helps if your dad owns the company.
After 19 years working in the company
Hi, After 19 years working in the company, is that a college drop-out? Cheers Dje
