Patek Philippe reference 112727 golden Ellipse automatic movement wrist watch, all 18ct yellow gold, cobalt blue oval face with index dial and hands on integral Patek mesh bracelet strap. Original card box, "The Present golden Ellipse is a fine example of the legendary model, distinguished by the unusual and rarely seen design with heavy link bracelet and the very good overall condition. Golden Ellipse - marring ancient and modern, with its divine proportions, the case of the golden Ellipse, launched in 1968, has no doubt inspired one of the most beautiful chapters of horological history. Thanks to its unique blend of bold simplicity and formal purity, this watch has become one of the flagships of the Patek Philippe collection and most certainly one of its most instantly recognisable creations., the elliptical design is based on the golden section, or "divina proporito", a ratio defined by the Greek mathematician Hippasos, around 450 BC. This discovery has fascinated both artists and philosophers and is instinctively recognised as visually agreeable and wholly balanced.
