Movement and Complications
Inside the Ref. 7118/1200A-010 beats the self-winding Caliber 324 S C, renowned for its reliability, precision, and artisanal finishing. The watch features hours, minutes, sweep seconds, and a date display at 6 o’clock—all elegantly arranged for maximum legibility. The movement boasts a power reserve of up to 45 hours, a 21K gold rotor, and the Patek Philippe Seal, reflecting the maison’s commitment to uncompromising mechanical mastery.
Dial and Design Details
The silvery opaline dial is horizontally embossed, capturing light with every turn of the wrist. Gold applied hour markers and luminescent hands provide both elegance and readability. The highlight of the design is the bezel set with 56 brilliant-cut diamonds (~0.67 ct), creating a luxurious yet balanced aesthetic. The dial's harmonious proportions echo the signature style of the Nautilus collection, bold yet graceful, sporty yet refined.
Case and Dimensions
Encased in stainless steel, the watch measures 35.2 mm in diameter and 8.62 mm in height, offering a perfect blend of presence and wearability. The iconic Nautilus case shape with its rounded octagonal bezel brings timeless sportiness, while the polished and satin-brushed surfaces enhance its feminine charm. With a water resistance of 60 meters, it blends beauty with practical strength, making it ideal for both formal and everyday settings.
Bracelet and Wearability
The integrated stainless steel bracelet with a fold-over clasp ensures a secure and elegant fit. Patek Philippe has added a new patented fold-over clasp with a comfort extension system, allowing an extra 2 to 4 mm of adjustment—an innovation that enhances the watch’s all-day wearability. The bracelet’s alternating polished and brushed links create subtle contrast and reflect light beautifully.
Case Back and Mechanical Artistry
Turn the watch over and you’ll discover a sapphire crystal case back, offering a full view of the meticulously finished Caliber 324 S C.
