Jonathan Anderson’s latest Patek Philippe collection is both daring and divisive. The launch of the Cubitus Collection at the Château de Vincennes in Paris marks the brand’s first new collection in over two decades. With three distinct models, this series merges classic craftsmanship with bold, modern design, reflecting Patek’s spirit of innovation.

The stainless-steel Ref. 5821/1A, with its olive-green dial, is likely to draw the most attention, while the two-tone Ref. 5821/1AR and the platinum Ref. 5822P offer more complex features, including a grand date, day, and moon phase.

Despite initial skepticism from traditional collectors, Anderson believes the collection will eventually resonate deeply with new fans of Patek Philippe. With geometric square cases, reminiscent of both Gerald Charles and Cartier Santos, the Cubitus Collection signals a new direction for luxury sports watches.

The bold 45mm size may feel oversized for some, but its refined details and intricate movements showcase Patek’s unwavering dedication to horological artistry.

This collection has all the potential to become a modern grail for the next generation of collectors.
