Golden Ellipse Jumbo

The Patek Golden Ellipse Ref 3605 has a jumbo sized case measuring 33 x 38 mm. Although simple in design, its adherence to the ‘Golden Ratio’ gives the Ellipse a pleasing harmony. The Golden Ellipse was introduced in 1968 and signaled a departure from the traditional shapes in watchmaking. The Ellipse also dispensed with the traditional extended lugs found on other watches, only allowing the end of the strap to briefly interrupt the smooth lines of the case. The ref. 3605 was produced from 1971 until the early 1980s. Ref 3605 has the same ultra-thin automatic caliber 28-255C as the original ref. 3700 Nautilus. Moreover, the 3605 is one of the few Ellipse models with a useful date copmplication.This ref. 3605 is executed in an 18k yellow gold case with the iconic elongated Ellipse shape.

Patek Philippe is the last Family-Owned Independent Genevan Watch Manufacturer. Iconic models are the Nautilus, Aquanaut, Calatrava, Cubitus, Ellipse, Twenty~4 and grand complications. Since 1839 without interruption, Patek Philippe has been perpetuating the tradition of Genevan watchmaking. As the last family-owned independent watch manufacturer in Geneva, it enjoys total creative freedom to entirely design, produce and assemble what experts agree to be the finest timepieces in the world – following the vision of its founders Antoine Norbert de Patek (1839) and Adrien Philippe (1845). The company name became Patek Philippe in 1851, and it is under this name that Patek Philippe created the first Swiss wristwatch ever made in 1868. Thanks to its exceptional know-how, Patek Philippe maintains a tradition of innovation hailed by an impressive repertoire of more than 80 patents.
