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.

Felipe Pikullik

Felipe Pikullik is a talented young watchmaker born in Berlin in 1994. After a long search for a watch that matched his vision, he decided to create his own. In 2017, he founded his eponymous watch brand with the aim of bringing his unique vision to life. He received formal training in the art of watchmaking at one of the renowned watchmaking schools in Glashütte, Saxony, Germany.

The brand's inception was sparked when Felipe crafted his first watch for personal use, and a friend requested a custom watch with a hand-engraved lion head on top of the plate. This inspired Felipe to create individual handmade watches with a personal touch that would be available for everyone. Today, Felipe Pikullik watches are a testament to his passion for the art of watchmaking and his dedication to creating high-quality timepieces with a unique touch.

Felipe Pikullik's debut watch, the Sternenhimmel, is the first model in a series of watches inspired by astronomy. The watch is a time-only piece, with a sleek design that embodies the beauty of the night sky.
