Patek Philippe Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001
In Oct 2024, Patek Philippe has announced a new collection called Cubitus. This is of course big information, as it has been about 25 years since the last selection (Twenty-4) was released. Just a month ago, we covered the Cubitus collection in detail and discussed our overall thoughts on the actual Ref. 5821/1A. We mentioned that the Ref. 5821/1A has become the most sought-after of the 3 new Cubitus creations, currently made of stainless steel and is less expensive (due to relatively less complications and precious metals). On the other hand, the Nautilus series also lacks many fascinating highlights.
Patek Philippe Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001 The Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001 watch is the most complex (and most expensive) of all of the new creations. While it is not as popular as the metal chronograph date model, it may be certainly the most intriguing item from a design and technicians standpoint. Let’s dive in to the reasons behind this and explore the finer details of the particular 2024 Cubitus Supreme.
Case, Dial as well as Hands As its client name suggests, the case of the Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001 is made of platinum eagle. This is one of the main features which distinguishes this watch through the other debuts, which are made from steel or a two-tone (steel/rose gold combination). As with other Patek Philippe platinum watches, you’ll find a diamond arranged into the bottom of the case. However what’s different about the Ref. 5822P-001 is that this is the very first time that it features a baguette-cut gemstone, rather than the more common round-cut diamonds, which you’ll see shimmering at the bottom of the case. This is a jerk to the novel shape of typically the Cubitus, which can be described as whether square or an emerald, depending on who you ask. However in reality, it’s a square using its vertices truncated. Like the time-and-date sibling, it steps 45mm diagonally, which is a completely adequate size for a nice watch. But due to the additional complications it packs within, the Ref. 5822P-001 is actually thicker, at 9. 6mm (the base model will be 8. 3mm). For further research, the Nautilus Ref. 5712 (to which the more mechanically advanced Ref. 5822P-001 is usually compared) is 8. 52mm thick. All in all, Patek Philippe has done a great job keeping the width reasonable and the watch stylish. For any modern watch-whether formal, casual, or sporty-9. 6mm is on the border associated with “conservative. ”

The watch is associated with a navy blue composite band with a fabric pattern and also contrast stitching. While the straps itself is nothing unique, it serves a variety of reasons. First, it makes the Ref. 5822P-001 look less just like a Nautilus, which has always been the pet peeve of fanatics and collectors. Second, this keeps the price affordable. A complete platinum Cubitus strap, whilst nice to the touch, would be a lot more expensive, not to mention how much weightier it is.
When the dial looks familiar for you, that’s because it is. The irregular in shape dial of the Ref. 5822P-001 is reminiscent of the Nautilus Ref. 5712. Of course , you will find significant differences between the 2 watches, the most obvious being the top date display on the Ref. 5822P-001. Large dates might not be new in the grand system of watchmaking, but they are not really in the very traditional regarding Patek Philippe. The two numeral discs are set nicely level and jump immediately, which is pretty much the pinnacle of enormous date displays. Another important distinction is that the Cubitus has a time of the week display, as the Ref. 5712 does not. Your day of the week is shown radially on the lower remaining subdial, while the Nautilus displays the date. Everything else is usually Nautilus-style, from the embossed switch to the hands and hours markers.
Motion Powering the new Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001 is the 353-part Calibre 240 PS CI J LU. This automatic movement has a power reserve regarding 38-48 hours and operates at a solid 3 Hertz. In addition to displaying the hrs, minutes and seconds, additionally, it displays the date, day time of the week and celestial satellite phases. But what really the actual Calibre 240 PS CI J LU so amazing is the technology inside, that involves no less than six patent programs, all related to the new large date mechanism.
The first is a tangential braking system to prevent the tens disk from jumping twice. In late each month, when the date changes from 31 to 01, the tens disc should remain stationary. Instead of becoming divided between two teaches for the tens and types, the mainspring's energy is definitely transferred entirely to the tens train. The tangential braking mechanism absorbs the excess energy forwarded to the tens disc, making certain it does not jump more than once.
The second patent is perfect for the double lever realignment system, a safety system created for manual adjustment of the day, specifically from 09 in order to 10, 19 to 20, twenty nine to 30 and thirty-one to 01, without the need with regard to energy for an instantaneous leap. This system ensures that the tens digit jumps at any time, whatever the force applied to the corrector pushpiece.
The 3rd patent concerns the versatile date corrector, making it possible to proper the day of the week anytime of the day.
Your fourth is a cam chain having a dual-function spring. Designed for often the cam driven by the 24-hour wheel, it is able to overcome higher torques while ensuring the actual precision of the midnight time jump. It also allows you to adjust the time forward or even backward at any time without any possibility of damaging the movement.

The 5th and sixth patents issue a device consisting of an unconventional wheel and a flexible link that adjusts the position from the two date discs once the case is installed, when the dial has been installed. By doing this, the tens and kinds digits are perfectly focused in their apertures. The system maintains these positions taut and therefore permanently maintained.
Visually, through the sapphire amazingly caseback, this movement appears like any Calibre 240 version. However , it is equipped with any micro-rotor, and its decoration is not really the usual Côtes de Genève, but ribbing. All in all, the particular movement's finishing is attractive (as expected from a Patek Philippe Seal movement), but a little mediocre for a high-end luxurious watch. The crystal caseback reveals the usual elements of Côtes de Genève, mother-of-pearl, beveled edges and polished mess heads.
The actual Cubitus Ref. 5822P-001 is among the most anticipated of the three timepieces in Patek Philippe's most recent collection. While it does endure a strong resemblance to the Nautilus Ref. 5712 in solitude, the Ref. 5822P-001 is a very pleasing timepiece. Ideally, the brand will take the critique and suggestions from the area seriously and innovate using the next Cubitus watch. In the event the Audemars Piguet Code eleven. 59 watch was able to waste the doubts of those naysayers (given time), then the Cubitus watch will surely be able to the actual same.
