Patek Philippe - Ellipse Jumbo "Full-Set" Ref. 3839

The Era of a new watch!

When Patek Philippe presented the Ellipse at the end of the 1960s, the manufacturer deliberately challenged the conventional shapes of the time. Instead of relying on the usual designs – round or rectangular – they sought proportions based on the golden ratio. The result was a watch whose case shape still stands for perfect harmony today.

The Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Ref. 3839 is among the most elegant and sought-after creations of the Geneva manufacture. Its harmonious proportions give the watch a timeless aesthetic that remains as captivating today as when it was first introduced.

This example features a 36 mm case crafted entirely from 18K yellow gold, offering a surprisingly modern wrist presence. It is complemented by the solid 18K yellow gold bracelet with its beautifully matte-brushed finish, adding a refined and understated touch to the watch's luxurious appearance.

A true highlight is the distinctive dial. Fine horizontal lines are combined with a coarse matte texture that resembles fine gold dust, creating fascinating reflections as the light changes. This rare dial configuration gives the Golden Ellipse a truly unique character.

Powering the watch is the ultra-thin Patek Philippe Caliber 28-255 C.

The watch is presented in excellent overall condition. It is accompanied by additional bracelet links, allowing the bracelet to be comfortably adjusted for larger wrist sizes.

Included are the original presentation box, booklets, and the original warranty papers from Breitschneider Jewellers in Osnabrück, Germany.The warranty certificate is not dated.

A rare opportunity to acquire a Golden Ellipse in this configuration, featuring its solid gold bracelet, complete accessories, and outstanding overall condition. A wonderful collector's piece for enthusiasts seeking a classic Patek Philippe beyond the mainstream.

The watch is fully checked by our workshop and comes with 1 year warranty.
