“Some old watches come with engraved dedications on their cases. It is
occasionally possible to find out interesting stories and personalities
behind these few words and digits …”

industrialist strapped a new Patek Philippe watch on his wrist. It had
his name engraved on its back. A name that would become famous thanks to
an invention that changed the way of cooking cakes.
