The present Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse reference 3648, executed in yellow gold and dating to the 1970s, is a highly attractive and honest example of one of the manufacture’s most iconic and architecturally distinctive dress watches. Offered by the son of the original owner, this watch benefits from appealing family provenance and long-term private ownership. The case appears to be unpolished and shows light wear consistent with age and careful use, retaining its original proportions and elegant lines. The overall presence of the case remains strong and well defined, underscoring the watch’s authenticity and preservation. The original blue dial is a standout feature, preserved in fantastic, flawless condition and having aged beautifully to a rich “blue jean” tone, a highly desirable patina among collectors of vintage Ellipse models. The hands match perfectly, creating a harmonious and period-correct appearance that significantly enhances the aesthetic appeal of the watch. The watch is fitted with a black Patek Philippe crocodile leather strap in approximately 60% condition, paired with its original yellow-gold Patek Philippe buckle, maintaining material and period coherence. While no documented service history accompanies the watch, the movement has been checked and is functioning correctly at the time of cataloguing. Elegant, beautifully aged, and offered with appealing original-owner provenance, this Golden Ellipse 3648 represents a compelling opportunity to acquire a well-preserved vintage Patek Philippe, celebrated for its timeless design, exceptional dial patina, and enduring collectability.
