This Patek Philippe Ellipse d’Or reference 3648 is a refined and elegant example of the maison’s iconic oval dress watch, defined by perfect proportions and timeless simplicity. The 27 by 32 millimeter case offers a sleek profile that sits beautifully on the wrist, remaining true to the minimalist philosophy behind the Ellipse design. The deep blue sunburst dial is signed with sigma marks flanking the “Swiss” text at 6 o’clock, indicating the use of solid gold for the applied indexes. This detail, along with the clean dial layout and absence of a seconds hand, reflects the understated elegance that defines the Ellipse line. Powered by a manual winding movement and fitted with a non-Patek gold-plated buckle, this reference offers a more accessible entry point into vintage Patek Philippe while retaining the core design elements and craftsmanship that make the Ellipse d’Or such a timeless classic. *if sold within the European Union the watch is subjective to 19% VAT
