perfect complement to fashionable business or casual wear and the most elegant dress watch for any evening wear. With 2018 marking the launch of the Twenty~4 Automatic collection, the new models complimented the existing range. The new series of self-winding mechan- ical ladies’ watches was the first model of the Twenty~4 collection featuring a round case and the caliber 324SC self-winding movement, with its date aperture and sweep seconds. The Ref. 4997/200R, a rose-gold version of Patek Phillipe’s iconic, white-gold Ladies’ Calatrava Reference 4897 was also highlighted at the event. The new timepiece fea- tures a unique purple hue — calfskin strap included — a refreshing and refined color that enhances the warm nu- ances of the rose gold. The domed dial is embossed with a concentric wave pattern and coated with more than 50 successive layers of translucent purple lacquer — a rich decor that creates a fascinating depth effect, over which the rose-gilt-powdered hour markers and the faceted rose-gold hands appear to float. The bezel, set with 76 round, internally flawless diamonds, highlights the dial and the entirely polished case. This was most definitely a crowd favorite among the guests. They admired and

learned about all of the exquisite timepieces, while a skilled watchmaker from Patek Philippe demonstrated her watchmaking skills for both watch connoisseurs and novices alike. The finale for such a stylish evening? A sumptuous seat- ed luncheon where guests enjoyed lively conversations— perfect way to celebrate exquisite ladies’ timepieces from Patek Philippe.
