The Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse redefined the typical dress watch shape at the end of the 1960s. While its form was entirely innovative, it was by no means an attempt to force something unnatural. Drawing inspiration from the captivating concept of the golden ratio, the Golden Ellipse’s design marked a bold departure from conventional styles. Instead of following trends, Patek Philippe ventured into unexplored territory between the circle and the rectangle. Five decades later, it remains one of Patek Philippe's longest-running models—second only to the iconic Calatrava! Presenting the rarely seen reference 3846J, where the traditional 'no lugs on a Golden Ellipse' design has been boldly broken! The 18K yellow gold case is in excellent condition, with small, elegant lugs and a small winding crown. The dial is equally impressive, featuring a blue soleil finish, elegant stick markers, and white printed text. This fine Ellipse is fitted with a thin, lightly used original Patek Philippe strap and an 18K yellow gold 'Ellipse' style buckle. The hand-wound Caliber 215 has been fully serviced by our watchmaker and is good to go for the years to come. We think the 'Ellipse' line from Patek Philippe is a truly cool concept. Of course, there are the wristwatches, but Patek also created lighters, desk clocks, letter openers, cufflinks, and even pendants for this line—a bold move by Patek!
