Every new Patek Philippe from Watches & Wonders 2024
Buffy AcaciaDespite being one of the world’s best known and most influential watch brands, it can be hard to look past Patek Philippe’s luxury sports watches to its high horology. After 185 years, the brand is still innovating and driving the watch world forward. Its Watches & Wonders 2024 haul includes a complication world-first, beautiful new Grand Complications references, and several more high-end surprises.

- For the first time ever, the Patek Philippe World Time Date 5330G-001 synchronises the date display with local time.
