One can always count on this venerable brand to unveil a first, and 2024 is no exception. The new World Time Ref. 5330G-001 is the first world time watch with a patented date display that is synchronized with the local time. Most world timers with date require the wearer to change the date independently of the time zone. Patek Philippe’s master watchmakers, though, couple the date with the local time zone so that the wearer only needs to change the zone; the date automatically adjusts. The Ref. 5330G is powered by a new 306-part, in-house- made, ultra-thin, self-winding movement (caliber 240 HUC) that boasts a unique differential system to indicate the date on the outer rim of the dial using a transparent glass hand with a hammerhead tip. Crafted in white gold, the 40mm watch carries the prestigious Patek Philippe Seal.

Other new models released in 2022 include the Grand Complications collection of minute repeaters with classic gongs, a second time zone with day/night indication and an alarm. Some pieces come accompanied by a set of white gold cufflinks with baguette-cut diamonds to match. The new Nautilus and Chronograph collections demonstrate similar expertise featuring a split-seconds monopusher and high-performance movement, while the Watches & Wonders Geneva line continues to boast the brands broad technical and aesthetic capabilities.
