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 New Tissot PRX Powermatic Automatic Mint Green & Chronograph Green

Two new additions to the famous PRX collection adorned in a beautiful green hue

Tissot is known for creating good-quality watches at reasonable prices, establishing itself in the mid-tier market. The brand's most famous collection, the Tissot PRX, debuted in 1978, just as the luxury sports watch trend was gaining momentum. Since then, the collection has grown with a range of releases. The brand now unveils the PRX Powermatic 80 in mint green in both 35mm and 40mm, which was previously only available in the quartz version, along with a new green PRX chronograph.

Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 Mint Green

The new Mint Green edition comes with the same stainless steel case with a choice of either 35mm or 40mm diameters, both with a slim profile of just 10.9mm. The case boasts a combination of brushed and polished finishes, complemented by a polished bezel. It is topped with a sapphire crystal, while the see-through caseback allows you to observe the movement of the watch. 

The latest mint green dial features an embossed waffle pattern that we have seen in previous releases, complete with applied indices and hands treated with Super-LumiNova, and a framed date window located at 3 o'clock.
