An elliptical case - poised between a circle and a rectangle. A dial of blue gold, with gold hands and hour markers seemingly suspended above its depths. When it was first unveiled in 1968, Patek Philippe’s Golden Ellipse marked a bold departure from conventional watchmaking forms. Yet rather than following fleeting trends, this creation embodied a timeless harmony that was instantly pleasing to the eye.

Its design was inspired by the principle of the “golden section,” discovered by ancient Greek mathematicians. This “divine” proportion - expressed as a ratio of 1 to 1.6180 - underpins some of history’s most celebrated works of art and architecture, lending the Golden Ellipse its enduring aesthetic balance.
