The new Chiming Alarm Grand Complication equipped with a 24-hour alarm function References 5322-001 and 5322-010 in white gold form a charismatic duo of Chiming Alarm watches with their blue or green textured, lacquered dials featuring a black-gradient rim.

Applied white gold Arabic numerals and syringe-shaped hands carry a white luminescent coating for perfect readability in all lighting conditions, while a white-varnished seconds hand traces the white transfer-printed railroad minute-track around the dial's edge. The alarm function indicators are grouped at the top of the dial: a bell-shaped aperture at 12 o'clock shows alarm status, a twin aperture displays the alarm time in 15-minute increments, and a round aperture below distinguishes day from night for intuitive 24-hour alarm setting. At 6 o'clock, a snailed counter carries the pointer-type date indication, its numerals in white save for the red 1.

Every element of the dial reflects the savoir-faire of Patek Philippe's craftsmanship, with skills that have been passed down and refined across more than 185 years of continuous watchmaking in Geneva.
