The golden Ellipse was initially launched in 1968 and is noted for its divine proportions. As one of the most aesthetically beautiful collections in watch-making history, the Ellipse boasts a simple yet unique design that stands at the forefront of Patek Philippe. The simplicity of a contrasting golden baton indexes set among the blue dial is effective, as well as the perfectly balanced golden section design which has been of interest to philosophers and artists for over two millennia.
