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.

diamond-cut

multi-faceted indexes" describes watch markers (indexes) or hands or other parts that are crafted with multiple angled surfaces, similar to the facets on a diamond. The "diamond-cut" refers to the precise cutting process used to create these facets, which enhances light reflection and gives the markers a sparkling, textured appearance. This technique makes the indexes stand out visually, adding depth and brilliance to the dial. The multi-faceted design ensures that the markers catch and reflect light from different angles, increasing their visibility and aesthetic appeal.
