Introduced in 1968, the Ellipse owes its design to no coincidence, since it is based on the golden ratio, considered the “divine proportion” found in nature and in the greatest works of architecture and art. 

Originally manufactured by dial-maker Singer for Patek Philippe, the bronze-colored dial varies with the light and features a soleillée finish. This color blends perfectly with the rose gold of the case, creating a contrast that is both extremely simple and striking.

Throughout the production process, 4 different types of dial were used, and we have written a full article on this subject, which you can discover [here](https://www.41watch.com/blog/revue-historique-de-la-patek-philippe-ellipse-n178)

Our example is fitted with an MK4 dial, recognizable by the domed hour-markers and hands and the “Swiss” visible on the dial at 6 o'clock. 

This “Jumbo” version of the Ellipse is equipped with a mechanical self-winding micro-rotor movement, caliber 240, which made its debut in this model, reference 3738, in 1977, nine years after the launch of the collection.

This was the first self-winding generation to introduce the legendary micro-rotor caliber 240. A true horological feat, this Manufacture caliber preserves a case of unrivalled finesse while providing a power reserve of around 45 hours.

The watch is delivered with its Patek Philippe archive extract (on order).
