Patek Philippe
Patek Philippe is undoubtedly recognized as the top brand in the global watch industry, and is known as the "blue-blooded aristocrat in watches". Origin of Patek Philippe Calatrava Cross Star: In 1185, Spanish Calatrava was invaded by Moors. Brave priest Raymond and knight Diego Belas Case led the people in a desperate war of resistance, and finally drove the Moors away. "Calatrava Cross Star" is a combination of knight's sword and priest's cross star, symbolizing solemnity and courage. The symbolic meaning of this cross is in line with the spirit of cooperation of the founders of Patek Philippe Anthony Patek and Jane Philippe. Since 1875, "Calatrava Cross Star" has become the symbol of Patek Philippe.

Vacheron Constantin's symbol is the Maltese Cross. The Maltese Cross was once a symbol used by the Order of the Hospital and the Order of Malta in history. Its shape consists of four "V" characters, and its design was inspired by the cross used in the First Crusade. In 188, Vacheron Constantin also chose "Maltese Cross" as the company's trademark, because the shape of the precision gear used to adjust the tightness of the spring in the era of manual watchmaking was similar to that of Maltese Cross, so it also became a symbol of superior skills and the tradition of manual watchmaking.
