Following the unveiling in October 2024 of the new Cubitus collection, which stands out for its unique blend of boldness and elegance, Patek Philippe has continued the development of its latest collection launched in the last 27 years by offering the secondsdate model in a new medium-size version with a 40 mm diameter designed to suit both male and female wrists.
The Cubitus is offered in a new medium-sized (40 mm diameter) version designed to suit all wrists. The new geometry of the white gold case with its square shape, rounded edges and elegant profile is highlighted by the contrast between vertical satin and polished finishes. The dial with its horizontally embossed pattern features a subtle sunburst blue-gray hue. Self-winding 26-330 S C caliber is equipped with a stop-seconds function enabling time-setting to the exact second. The white gold bracelet features a lockable adjustment system and a patented Patek Philippe fold-over clasp secured by four independent catches.
Patek Philippe reinvents the “casual chic” style in a new rose gold medium-size version of the Cubitus (40 mm diameter compared to 45 mm for the first three large-size models launched in 2024). This new medium size combined with an elegant profile (8.5 mm) suits both gentlemen and ladies. Distinguished by a two-part construction and a screw-down crown, the case is certified water resistant for all aquatic activities to a depth of 30 meters.
The new medium-size Reference 7128/1R-001 joins the first three large-size Cubitus models in the collection. It is also available in a new white gold version with sunburst blue-gray dial (Reference 7128/1G-001).
Patek Philippe has reinterpreted the Gondolo Serata model with a dial bearing an original zebra motif inspired by the Ref. 5738/50G-023 Golden Ellipse wristwatch. To recreate the visual interplay of the stripes with the zebra firmly in the foreground, the Manufacture has applied an innovative and refined technique involving a sapphire crystal dial engraved and black varnished on both sides. The zebra motif is then completed with black metallization and white varnish on the underside of the sapphire crystal dial, thus creating magnificent volume and depth effects. The time is displayed by two applied Breguet numerals at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock swept over by rose gold leaf-shaped hands.
First launched in 2006, the Gondolo Serata stands out with its soft, Art Deco-inspired curves. Its distinctive design offers a contemporary take on the evening or “dress” watch that can be worn with style during the day. It made its grand debut in diamondset white gold versions framing guilloché mother-ofpearl dials (References 4972G-001 and 4972/1G-001), which were produced until 2021.
The rose gold case (28.6 x 40.85 mm) is set with 94 brilliant-cut spessartite gemstones (2.02 ct) arranged in a double color gradient covering a spectrum from cognac shades at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock to tangerine tones at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock. This dark-light-dark effect and the variations in the size of the gemstones emphasize the daintily “waisted” and cambered profile of the watch, ensuring a perfectly smooth fit on the wrist. A second row of spessartite gemstones on the lower part of the case accentuates its asymmetrical curves.
