More information
The Patek Philippe "Ellipse," introduced in 1968, quickly became iconic for its distinctive oval shape, inspired by the golden ratio. The ref. 3589, released in 1970, showcased a larger case design and was powered by the thin LeCoultre based caliber 28-255 movement, also used in the Nautilus series. This particular model features a rare double-signed dial, retailed by Beyer.
