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.

Formal Watch

A formal watch is a type of watch designed to be worn with formal attire or elegant fashion. It is characterized by its sleek and classic design, often having a slim and elegant profile, a simple dial, and a thin case. This is done to highlight elegance when wearing formal clothing.

Typically, formal watches do not have additional complications or sports functions, as their main purpose is to serve as an attractive accessory that complements special occasions, business meetings, or formal events. The design of a formal watch focuses on aesthetics and the ability to enhance the overall appearance of the person wearing it during formal occasions.
