The Patek Philippe 18k Yellow Gold Blue Ellipse wristwatch features a stunning integrated 18k yellow gold bracelet. The history of the Ellipse model dates back to 1968, when Patek Philippe introduced the “Golden Ellipse”, quickly
becoming an emblem of Swiss luxury watchmaking.
The Ellipse stands out for its elliptical shape, inspired by the golden ratio—a mathematical formula considered aesthetically pleasing and visible in various natural and artistic elements. This model’s timeless design showcases Patek Philippe’s craftsmanship.
This 1970s Patek Philippe Ellipse features a heavy solid 18k yellow gold case and bracelet, a stunning deep blue dial, and a high-grade calibre 16-250 movement. The elegant case, detailed bracelet, and unique blue dial with sharp baton markers and dauphine-style hands make this timepiece truly special. A stunning design from one of history’s most famous watchmakers.
