Pre-Owned Patek Philippe Ellipse

WHY WE LOVE IT

–

In 1968, Patek Philippe released the Golden Ellipse.

Debuting eight years before the iconic Nautilus, the Ellipse—with its distinctive oval shape—was unlike anything else in Patek Philippe’s catalogs. And in the early 1970s, Patek expanded the Ellipse line to include squarish case shapes - immediately dubbed "TV Cases" or "Jumbo" by enthusiasts.

This particular Reference 3739 is once such example. Finished in solid 18k yellow gold, this svelte piece comes in at 36mm in diameter and features a stunning sunburst blue sigma dial with applied yellow gold indices and a matching 'Dauphine' handset, a signed crown, and an almost heart-stopping, integrated brick-link bracelet finished in solid yellow gold.

Absolutely fantastic.

Watches such as this one are fun and wonderful timepieces, and there's no telling if and when one of these in any condition will surface again, so don't wait!

OVERALL CONDITION

The case is in excellent condition overall showing normal signs of wear consistent with age and use. Sunburst blue 'sigma' dial with applied yellow gold indices is in very good condition, showing light wear around edges with a matching yellow gold ’dauphine' handset. Signed crown.
