-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 Golden Ellipse Ref. 3598, manufactured in the 1970s. The main feature of this watch is its oval-shaped case, which has an even more pronounced oval shape than the regular Golden Ellipse.
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 material is 18k yellow gold. It is 30 mm width and 35 mm height. The oval shape of the bezel, which is thicker on both sides, gives the impression that it is not as large as the numbers.
The dial is a black dial made of onyx. It is characterized by the deep black hue unique to onyx, which is different from painted black.
Onyx dials are produced in very small numbers and are extremely rare, so their popularity among collectors has grown considerably in recent years.
The hands and indexes are a combination of gold alpha hands and bar indexes. The hands of the Golden Ellipse are generally bar hands, so the alpha hand is one of the rare features.
The movement is the hand-wound Cal. 16-250, a small caliber measuring 16.3 mm in diameter and 2.5 mm in thickness, which was mainly used in ladies' watches.
The movement was also used in the ladies' Calatrava and Twenty-4 hand-wound models in the 2000s.
It comes with an Extract from the Archives acquired in April 2025 and original box.
