Patek Philippe Twenty~4

Patek Philippe may be celebrated for its grand complications, but some of the manufacture’s most successful watches are considerably simpler. Introduced in 1999, the Twenty~4 collection was conceived specifically for women, initially with a distinctive rectangular case before expanding in 2018 with the introduction of the round Twenty~4 Automatic. The result feels less like a traditional dress watch and more like an everyday Patek: elegant, practical, and just glamorous enough.

This Ref. 7300/1200A-001 features a 36mm stainless steel case surrounded by a diamond-set bezel, providing a brilliant frame for its blue sunburst dial. Applied luminous Arabic numerals give the watch a slightly sportier character, complemented by luminous hands, an outer minute track, and a neatly integrated date aperture at 6 o’clock. The polished stainless steel bracelet continues directly into the case, giving the watch the fluid, jewelry-like quality that has defined the Twenty~4 collection from the beginning.

Inside is Patek Philippe’s self-winding Calibre 26-330 S C, visible through the sapphire crystal caseback and offering central seconds and a date display. The watch is accompanied by its inner and outer boxes, papers and pamphlets, and Certificate of Origin.

The Twenty~4 manages a combination Patek does particularly well: serious watchmaking without looking particularly serious. The diamonds bring the glamour, but the steel case, blue dial, automatic movement, and bracelet make this a watch designed to be worn far beyond special occasions. This Twenty~4 is a Patek bestseller for a reason. 

Founded in 1839, Patek Philippe is one of the oldest watch manufacturers in the world with an uninterrupted watchmaking history. Few international luxury brands carry the gravitas of their name, and for good reason. The firm's commitment to excellence in horological manufacture is unflinching, and their track record of innovation in design is without peer. They continue to lead the industry, and even their fiercest competitors have nothing but the utmost respect for the company.

From the simple elegance of their Calatrava line to the stunning study in miniaturization that is reference 1518 perpetual calendar to the modern reference 5750P chiming watch, Patek’s catalog is chock full of some of the most elegant and complicated timepieces ever made. Family-owned and completely independent, the firm has the freedom to do what it wants — such as discontinue one of the world’s most beloved steel luxury sport watches, the reference 5711 — when it wants.

Owning a Patek Philippe is, for many, the ultimate goal of timepiece collecting, and for a certain type, the only timepiece they collect. Whichever way you look at it, there is no questioning the elegance of design, superlative manufacture of their cases and movements, or the sheer elegance and emotion that comes from owning one.

Of course, for a brand steeped in heritage, we are told, “You never actually own a Patek Philippe…”

Well, you know the rest.
