Patek Philippe Debuts Three New Models In Twenty-4 Ladies' Watch Series
After the confusion and changing plans that dominated Patek Philippe's release schedule in 2020, the iconic Swiss marque aims to start its 2021 off early with a trio of new variants in its long running Twenty-4 collection. First unveiled in 1999, the Twenty-4 line stands alone among Patek Philippe's offerings as the only series aimed exclusively at women, and for this year the brand looks to revitalize both the original "manchette"model and the round cased automatic series that debuted in 2018. ?These three new models, including the new Patek Philippe Twenty-4 Quartz and two new references of the Patek Philippe Twenty-4 Automatic, add depth and variety while playing up some of modern watchmaking's trendiest cues.Carrying on the tradition of the original Patek Philippe Twenty-4 models, the new Patek Philippe Twenty-4 Quartz renders the 25.1mm by 30mm "manchette"case design in rose gold.
