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.

Pear cut

Pear cut

It is a type of cut that is represented by diamond or gemstone cuts in a shape resembling an almond (almond-shaped). This shape is characterized by a wide base and a sharp front tip, making it ideal for setting gemstones in watches

Components of the watch, such as the dial, bezel, and bracelet, can be adorned with this type of cut. Gemstones cut in an almond shape are perfect for adding brilliance and sparkle to a wristwatch. Other gemstones, such as emerald, ruby, or sapphire, can also be used in an almond shape.
