Hi, trying to find some background history on the watch brand "Phillipe" coming up blank as all the searches return Patek Phillipe.

Image of the watch I am trying to research, apparently a Venus 210 calibre

I can confirm: Philip Watch (Philippe from its founder -Francois Philippe, born in Switzerland but raised in Naples- but changed to Philip by agreement with Patek) is a historic Neapolitan watchmaking house of Swiss origins which in 2013 also inaugurated a splendid museum in Naples.
