The Patek Philippe Grande Sonnerie 6301P watch exudes an elegant charm, which is fully in line with Patek Philippe's key principle that super complication watches must meet the needs of daily wearing occasions. The platinum case is derived from the Ref. 5370 split-second chronograph launched in 2015. Its graceful curves and rounded shapes show a delicate and balanced design, while the concave bezel and slightly curved sapphire crystal watch The mirror, with the tapered satin-finished side of the case, forms a perfect transition effect. Just like other platinum cases of Patek Philippe, the side of the case is set with a small diamond between the lugs, but this time it is set between the lugs at 12 o'clock instead of the usual 6 o'clock position, because The latter is equipped with a timekeeping mode selection slider.
Patek Philippe exerts its own advantages in watchmaking technology and rare craftsmanship, especially the "Glacé" effect on the black Grand Feu enamel dial, three-dimensional Breguet numerals, and platinum leaf-shaped hands covered with luminous coating. The slightly slanted Breguet blocks add a touch of dynamic charm to the classic and modern dial. The small seconds at the hours, minutes and 6 o'clock position present exquisite proportions, plus two power reserve indicators with semicircular scales at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, marked with "MOUVEMENT" and "SONNERIE" respectively. The watch uses a hand-stitched shiny black alligator leather strap with square scales and a platinum folding clasp.

In order to integrate the Sonnerie function in the watch, Patek Philippe developed a new movement based on the 300 movement used in the master string-tone watch. For such a sophisticated mechanism, the GS 36-750 PS IRM movement with 703 parts can be said to be very small (37 mm in diameter; 7.5 mm in thickness). One of the biggest difficulties faced by the developers and designers of the Da Ziming device is a clear understanding of the power transmission and storage methods. Different from the minute repeater, which is activated by a slider or a button to tell the time on demand, the Grand Ziming must have enough power reserve to automatically tell the time with the correct number of strikes and consistent beeping.
To solve this challenge, Patek Philippe equipped the GS 36-750 PS IRM movement with two twin barrels connected in series as the source of power, one for the time gear and one for the timekeeping device. This configuration can provide a 72-hour power reserve of the movement and a 24-hour power reserve of the timekeeping. The three-day power reserve of the movement satisfies people's expectations for the modern mechanical watches worn daily, and is also in line with Patek Philippe's customer-centric watchmaking philosophy. The 24-hour timekeeping power reserve ensures that the watch can automatically report the hour and quarter-hours throughout the day. At the same time, it benefits from the balanced torque characteristics to ensure the best sound intensity. When the crown is pushed in, two double barrels can be wound. Clockwise rotation can wind part of the movement, and counterclockwise rotation can wind the timing device. All four mainsprings are equipped with sliding stoppers to prevent the mainspring from overwinding.
