Case Size: 28mm
The 28mm case makes this model one of the smaller options in the Patek Philippe lineup. Its elegant size offers a subtle wrist presence, perfect for those who prefer a smaller, more feminine wristwatch, or simply for those who appreciate the classic dimensions of vintage-style watches.
Case Material: 18k Yellow Gold, White Gold, or Rose Gold
The Ellipse is available in various precious metals, including 18k yellow gold, white gold, or rose gold, all of which add a level of sophistication and luxury to the piece. The solid gold case also adds weight and presence, enhancing the watch’s durability and overall feel.
Dial Color: White, Silver, or Champagne
The dial is typically kept in neutral, understated tones such as white, silver, or champagne—all designed to complement the elegance of the elliptical case. The minimalistic design of the dial often features simple hour markers, and sometimes applied hour markers or diamond accents for a touch of luxury.
Movement: Manual Wind or Automatic
The Ellipse 28mm is powered by either a manual wind movement or an automatic movement, depending on the specific model. Patek Philippe’s manual winding calibers are known for their exceptional craftsmanship and precise timekeeping, while their automatic movements offer the convenience of self-winding.
Crystal: Sapphire Crystal
The sapphire crystal offers excellent clarity and is highly resistant to scratches, ensuring the watch maintains its pristine appearance over time. The curved, dome-shaped crystal complements the elliptical case shape, giving the watch a harmonious, refined look.
Water Resistance: 30 meters (3 ATM)
The water resistance of the Ellipse 28mm is typically around 30 meters (3 ATM), which means it is suitable for everyday wear, such as light exposure to water (e.g., splashes or washing hands), but it is not designed for swimming or diving.
Bracelet: Leather Strap or Metal Bracelet
The Ellipse 28mm often comes with a high-quality leather strap in either alligator leather or calf leather, depending on the specific model. Some versions may also feature a metal bracelet, either in the same precious metal as the case or a matching design to ensure a cohesive aesthetic.
Design: Oval, Elegant, and Minimalist
The Ellipse is defined by its oval shape, which sets it apart from traditional round watches. The elliptical case, originally inspired by the golden ratio (a symbol of perfect proportion), gives it a timeless and refined aesthetic. Its minimalistic design, without overly busy complications, makes it a pure expression of luxury simplicity.
Limited Edition & Collectibility:
While the Patek Philippe Ellipse is produced in limited numbers, each piece is crafted with the utmost attention to detail. The 28mm version may be produced as part of a limited collection, adding to its rarity and collectible nature. As with many Patek Philippe models, owning an Ellipse is a statement of taste, elegance, and timeless luxury.
