The New Patek Philippe Twenty~4 7340/1R Perpetual Calendar

Introduced in 1999, the Twenty~4 collection was Patek Philippe’s first dedicated line of feminine timepieces. The original model featured an Art Deco-inspired manchette (cuff) design, but in 2018, the brand unveiled the Twenty~4 Automatic, which is a round-cased iteration powered by an automatic movement. This year, Patek Philippe elevates the collection further by introducing a perpetual calendar complication, marking the collection's debut in the realm of Grand Complications.
Crafted entirely in 18K rose gold, the watch features a 36mm case with a slender profile of just 9.95mm, making it sit gracefully on the wrist. The case is meticulously finished with a combination of polished and brushed surfaces, enhancing its refined aesthetic. Two dial options are available. The Ref. 7340/1R-001 features a silvery opaline dial with a vertical satin finish, evoking the texture of shantung silk that feature irregular texture, while the Ref. 7340/1R-010 presents an olive green sunburst dial for a more contemporary appeal.

During Watches and Wonders 2024, Hermès unveiled an array of new timepieces, including the Arceau Duc Attelé and the new Cut collection. A standout piece from these novelties is the Arceau Chorus Stellarum, inspired by the Chorus Stellarum silk scarf designed by Japanese designer Daiske Nomura. This unique and creative watch, limited to just a few pieces, has a stunning dial showcasing a yellow gold horse with a skeleton rider.

The brand introduced two new releases, both in 41mm white gold cases with asymmetrical stirrup-shaped lugs. One of the models has a bezel adorned with up to 70 diamonds. The dials come in two color variations: one in dark blue and the other in silver.

Each watch features champlevé enamel, lacquer, and miniature painting. The name “Chorus Stellarum” is Latin for “Dance of the Stars,” which is reflected in the rhodium-plated stars scattered around the dial. The yellow gold horse animates at the push of a button located at the 9 o'clock position.

The watch is powered by the automatic Hermès Manufacture H1837 movement, which can be seen through the sapphire crystal case-back. The movement operates at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offers a 50-hour power reserve. The watch comes with either an abyss blue or pearl gray alligator leather strap, each featuring a white gold pin buckle. Each watch is limited to six numbered pieces.
