Raymond Weil Toccata Classic 24mm Ladies Watch Mother Of Pearl
Ref. 5024-SPS-97081
Sits in Raymond Weil’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Raymond Weil watches we list, which start at £850.
Price range £850 to £3,595 across 59 Raymond Weil watches in stock.The Toccata takes its name from the Italian musical form — pieces built for touch, for demonstrating what fingers can draw from an instrument. Raymond Weil, a family company with music woven through its identity, has used that idea to anchor a collection of dress watches that prize refinement over presence. This 24mm reference sits at the smaller, quieter end of that lineage. At 5.1mm deep, it lies almost flush against the wrist — the kind of profile that disappears beneath a cuff or sits without argument under a sleeve. The bi-colour case pairs stainless steel with yellow gold PVD, and the bezel carries 60 laboratory-grown diamonds; the mother-of-pearl dial continues the arrangement with 12 further diamond-set hour markers, so the light catches consistently across both surfaces rather than concentrating in one place. The five-row two-tone bracelet was redesigned for this generation of the Toccata, and the push-button double-security clasp gives a more considered close than the folding clasps typically found at this scale.

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?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
