-Description

Patek Philippe is a watchmaker founded in Geneva in 1839. The company makes watches without any compromise by utilizing its unparalleled quality and technical expertise.

Along with Vacheron Constantin and Audemars Piguet, it is known as the Big Three, one of the world's three major brands, and it is no exaggeration to say that it has established a special position among them.

In addition to continuing to be one of the world's finest manufactures, the extremely small number of watches produced makes this brand synonymous with luxury watches. The independence of being a family-run business and the reliability of knowing that all watches can be repaired create value as an asset that can be passed down through generations.

This watch is the first model of Golden Ellipse, reference 3548 manufactured in the early 1970s.

The Golden Ellipse, which was first released in 1968, had a design that was completely different from the round and rectangular cases that had been available up until that point, and it made a big impact.

The ellipse, which is a fusion of a circle and a rectangle, and the aspect ratio of the case (1:1.6181) are the "golden ratio" said to have been discovered by a Greek mathematician, and these form the basis of the name.

The case is made of 18K yellow gold and is 27mm wide and 32mm tall, but because it is oval shaped, it doesn't look as big as the numbers suggest, giving the impression of being on the small side.

The dial is a champagne gold dial in the same color as the case. The dial, which has aged moderately well, gives off a very good vintage look.

In addition to the standard blue dial, Golden Ellipse also offers other variations of dials.

While the combination of champagne gold with Roman numerals is quite common, the combination of sunburst gold with bar numerals, as on this watch, is quite rare.

The movement is the hand-wound Cal.23-300, a thinner version of the Cal.10-200.It uses a gyromax balance and is the thinnest Patek 23 mm in diameter (10 Ligne) movement.
