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.

When Patek Philippe announced the Cubitus in October 2024, the collection received mixed reactions, with watch enthusiasts divided between those who admired the design and those who were not entirely convinced. Undoubtedly, the watch’s design was one of the most talked-about topics among watch enthusiasts over the past year.

Now, six months after the launch, Patek Philippe expands the Cubitus collection with two new gold editions housed in notably smaller cases. These new models join the Time and Date series, which was previously available in stainless steel and a two-tone gold and steel version. Meanwhile, the more complicated edition remains exclusive to platinum.

The latest Cubitus watches come in two material options—rose gold and white gold, featuring a more compact design. The case measures 40mm diagonally from 10 to 4 o’clock, compared to the original 45mm version. The new case is also slightly thicker, with an 8.5mm profile versus the previous model’s 8.3mm thickness.

Maintaining the signature Cubitus aesthetic, the case features a two-part construction with a square shape, rounded edges, and distinctive side elements, combining polished and satin-finished surfaces. The screw-down crown is subtly integrated, ensuring a water resistance of 100 meters.

With this latest release, Patek Philippe introduces blue-grey and brown dial options, which will be available in white gold and rose gold variants, respectively. The dial retains its signature sunburst finish with embossed horizontal lines, baton-style hour indices, and hands crafted in white or rose gold, all coated with luminescent material. The date window at 3 o’clock features a white disc with black numerals for clear legibility.

As with the previous Time and Date models, these new editions are powered by the in-house Caliber 26-330 S C automatic movement. Comprising 212 components and 30 jewels, it features a 21K gold central rotor engraved with horizontal decorations, providing unidirectional winding for optimal performance.

Continuing the sporty-elegant aesthetic, the integrated bracelet—available in either white or rose gold—features vertically satin-brushed main links, polished central links, and a polished bevel along the edges. It retains the comfort extension and fold-over clasp with four independent catches, though a quick-change system for strap swapping remains absent.

The new Patek Philippe Cubitus gold editions are priced at EUR 76,000, approximately AED 301,500.
