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.

Anti-magnetic

Anti-magnetic

Is a feature or characteristic of a watch that allows it to resist or minimize the effects of magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can interfere with the proper functioning of a watch movement, causing inaccuracies in timekeeping. An anti-magnetic watch is designed with materials and components that are not easily affected by magnetic fields. It may include the use of anti-magnetic alloys, such as certain types of steel or non-ferrous materials, as well as additional shielding or protection measures. The purpose of an anti-magnetic watch is to maintain accurate timekeeping even when exposed to magnetic fields commonly encountered in daily life, such as those generated by electronic devices or magnetic closures.
