Twenty~4 4910 Rose Gold / Brown

In Context

At 25.1 mm this is jewellery scale — a watch sized to be worn as an ornament rather than read across a room. The 6.8 mm case is genuinely slim and goes under a shirt cuff without argument. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

It is quartz, so it will hold time far more closely than any mechanical watch here, and asks for a battery every few years rather than a service.

4910/11R-010 is one of 2 executions of the 4910/11R base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a brown dial and a rose gold case.

The E15 is Patek Philippe's small quartz movement, 16.3 mm by 13 mm and 1.8 mm high, for the Twenty~4 manchette and the Gondolo Serata. It powers 30 watches in this library. It has 57 parts and 6 jewels, shows hours and minutes, and is finished to Patek's standard even though the caseback is closed. It exists because the rectangular bracelet watch of 1999 was built for a wrist that wanted diamonds and a slim case rather than a mechanical movement, and it is still the movement of the Twenty~4 in its original form. In the library it powers 25 [Twenty~4](/brands/patek-philippe/twenty-4) references, the 4910 in steel and gold with diamonds, and 5 [Gondolo](/brands/patek-philippe/gondolo) Serata references. Case widths run from 24 mm to 28.6 mm. The [16-250](/calibers/patek-philippe-16-250) is the hand-wound movement of the Twenty~4 4920, and the [324 S C](/calibers/patek-philippe-324-s-c) the automatic of the round Twenty~4 of 2018.

29 other watches in the library run the Patek Philippe E15.
