One of the most elegant and rare-to-find Patek Philippe Ellipses we’ve come across, this exceptional example showcases the thoughtful detailing and craftsmanship the maison is celebrated for. It is accompanied by its Patek Philippe box, certificate of origin, and the original receipt of sale from Fred Joaillier, dated 1985. According to the certificate, the bezel is set with approximately 0.96 carats of diamonds, framing a fully pavé diamond dial.
The pavé center is bordered by a champagne-toned outer ring with a fine grained texture, accented by gold rivet hour markers and indicated by gold rolled hands. Dial branding is intentionally absent — aside from the Sigma Swiss designation — with the Patek Philippe signature instead reserved for the engraving on the caseback, while the crown is signed with Patek Philippe’s Calatrava emblem. The integrated 18k yellow gold bracelet features a woven-style texture that echoes the hands’ details, offering both visual depth and remarkable flexibility, and is secured by a Calatrava jewelry clasp.
Powered by the manual-wind caliber 16/250, this is a striking and expressive vintage Patek Philippe, and certain to draw attention on the wrist.
