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.

Arnold & Son

Arnold & Son is a Swiss watch brand that was founded in 1764 by English watchmaker John Arnold. The company has a rich heritage in watchmaking and is known for its technical innovation and precision timepieces.

Arnold & Son watches are designed and manufactured entirely in-house. The brand's signature feature is the use of multiple complications in its watches, such as tourbillons and moon phases, all of which are expertly integrated into the design of each timepiece.

One of the most notable models in the Arnold & Son collection is the Constant Force Tourbillon, which uses a unique mechanism to maintain constant force to the escapement, resulting in unparalleled accuracy. The Globetrotter, on the other hand, is a world time watch that allows the wearer to keep track of the time in multiple time zones simultaneously.
