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.

Tapisserie

Tapisserie

Is a decorative technique commonly used in luxury watches. It involves engraving or carving a pattern of small, closely interlocking squares or rectangles on the watch dial. This intricate process is carried out manually using specialized carving tools or machines to create the complex design on the dial.

One prominent example of the Tapisserie technique can be found in the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak collection, where the brand introduced the famous "Grande Tapisserie" pattern. This pattern features a distinctive square or rectangular grid design that adds a unique and elegant character to the watch dial.
