Ellipse d'Or
A piece of Patek Philippe history in a smaller format. The Ellipse is one of the house's most iconic designs, and the Ref. 4134 is its elegant ladies' version—perfectly suited to a cocktail dress. It combines the proportions of the Ellipse with a fine diamond bezel and a seamlessly integrated bracelet.
Our example was sold on January 15, 1980. The case and integrated bracelet are made of 18K white gold. The bezel, set entirely with diamonds, harmonizes perfectly with the blue Ellipse dial. The bezel has a total weight of 0.89 carats, and all stones are flawless.
Cool white gold, sparkling stones, and deep blue create a calm, harmonious overall appearance.
The watch is in excellent condition. The case, bezel, and bracelet are very well preserved, the diamonds are all present, and the contours are clearly defined.
Inside is the Patek Philippe hand-wound Caliber 16-250, a slim and reliable movement designed specifically for this Ellipse.
What makes it special is the complete collector's set:
- Warranty papers
- Original Patek Philippe Ellipse box (without cushion)
- Original purchase invoice
- 1979 model catalog
