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.

MAGHNAM

MAGHNAM, established by the Jordan watchmaker Sohaib Maghnam, and the Chief Executive Officer at Albidaa. MAGHNAM is a unique fusion of automotive design and horology. Sohaib Maghnam, who balances his roles as an engineer and a watchmaker, was born in 1995. A student at Politecnico di Milano, Italy, he harbors a deep passion for watches, cars, and the quintessence of Italian beauty. His creations are mechanical timepieces that draw inspiration from warriors and mythology, exemplified by the "Mohareb" (Arabic for "Warrior"). This model also marks the debut of Maghnam's first retrograde movement with retrograde hours to the front of the watch and a vertical minutes counter in the middle of the case, with many more exceptional collections like Makina and Madar.

Each timepiece from MAGHNAM is a testament to the harmonious blend of creative vision and mechanical mastery.
