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.

As summer approaches, Oris introduces two watermelon-colored models of its versatile Aquis Date 41.5mm dive watch. Embracing the quintessential summer fruit and its vibrant colors, the refreshed collection features editions in striking green and red hues. Last summer, the company revealed a beautiful collection of diving watches, in wonderful colors, which achieved great success.

The new editions comes with a 41.5 mm stainless steel case, brushed and polished, featuring a domed sapphire crystal. The case back is transparent but made of mineral glass, unlike the sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating that protects the dial. To learn more, the following article explains the difference between all types of glass used in the watch.

The signature oversized crown at 3 o'clock ensures effortless manipulation, and because it screws in, the watch is water-resistant up to 300 meters. Featuring watermelon green or red hues, the white ceramic bezels also have green or red markings.

The dial colors chosen by Oris are inspired by the colors of the most famous summer fruits, the green and red watermelon.While sunburst finishes create a stunning range of colours, ranging from yellowish green to dark green. A thin ring of dark green surrounds the perimeter of the dial, adding a layer of depth. Likewise, red dial has hues ranging from bright red to burgundy. The white date window stands out at 6 o'clock, while the applied indices and hands used in the design of the watch are coated with Super-LumiNova to provide better visibility in low light.

Exposed under the transparent caseback is the Oris Calibre 733, which is based on the Sellita SW200-1. It remains a solid movement, offering a power reserve of approximately 38 hours with a 4Hz beat rate.

The watch is equipped with an integrated-style stainless steel bracelet fitted with a quick-adjust clasp for easy extension. The entire bracelet can also be quickly exchanged for an Oris rubber strap. This watch will join the permanent line and is priced at CHF 2,400, which is equivalent to 9,700 AED.
