Stepping up in Raymond Weil's range
The Toccata name comes from the Italian *toccare* — to touch — and Raymond Weil has built the collection around that idea of immediate, sensory appeal rather than technical display. This 24mm reference sits at the quieter end of the family, stripped of a date window so the sunrayed dial has nothing to interrupt it, and wearing a redesigned bracelet that the brand developed specifically for this proportion rather than simply scaling down from the larger cases. At 24mm the watch reads as jewellery-adjacent without crossing into dress-watch territory, and the sunrayed finish will shift noticeably between indoor and natural light — flat in shade, catching directional light as a warm glow through the gold PVD. The bracelet carries the same finish as the case, which keeps the whole thing reading as a single piece on the wrist.

Learn more about Raymond Weil
Raymond Weil founded his company in Geneva in 1976, which was close to the worst possible moment: Swiss mechanical watchmaking was being dismantled by quartz, and established houses were closing. Starting one from nothing took a particular kind of nerve.
The company survived and stayed independent, which is rarer than it sounds — most Swiss names of comparable size were absorbed into Swatch Group, Richemont or LVMH. Raymond Weil is still owned and run by the founding family, with his grandson Elie Bernheim as chief executive.
Music runs through the brand deliberately rather than decoratively. The collections are named for it — Maestro, Toccata, Tango, Freelancer — and the company has built long partnerships with orchestras, conservatoires and record labels.
The watches sit where Swiss watchmaking is still attainable: slim dress pieces, chronographs and skeletonised automatics, mostly on Sellita and ETA calibres, with the Millesime line taking a more vintage-minded direction in recent years.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
Cheapest place to buy
Mappin & Webb is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
