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.

Introducing MeisterSinger Unveils The Classic 38mm No.03

Three new variants with elegant colors

MeisterSinger, the esteemed German watch brand, is famous for its elegant and simplified single-hand timepieces. It offers a diverse range of watches, from simple to vintage-inspired models. Now, the brand introduces three new releases of its elegant No.03 variant, featuring a 38mm case and three stunning dial color options. 

The watch is designed to accommodate both males and females. It is not only smaller in size compared to previous versions, which come in 40 mm or 43 mm, but the case also features a 38 mm diameter and a thickness of 10.5 mm to cater to different tastes. Crafted from stainless steel, the case features a combination of polished and brushed finishes and includes a sizable crown, along with a sapphire crystal covering the dial and a transparent caseback.

The new No.03 offers three distinct dial options, a sunburst blue dial featuring white numerals, an ivory dial adorned with black numerals, and a white dial complemented by golden numerals. Unlike some of the larger 43mm and 40mm models that include a date window, the new 38mm watches focus solely on displaying the hours and minutes in the iconic MeisterSinger fashion. Each hour, marked with double digits for symmetry, is distinguished by five minute intervals. The dial also features the iconic central hand that aligns with the outer track. 

Through the mineral glass, you can observe the Sellita SW300, an automatic movement based on the SW200 which enhances the power reserve from 38 to 42 hours, while still operating at 28,800 vph (4Hz). This release comes with a cognac or brown leather strap with crocodile leather pattern. Each variant is priced at EUR 1,990 which is equivalent to AED 7,900.
