1978 Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse 27MM Blue Dial Leather Strap (3748)
The seller represents this timepiece as being in vintage condition. It includes the watch and a travel case.
the Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Reference 3748, accompanied by the original Patek Philippe Sleeve. Originally introduced in the 1970s, the Golden Ellipse is celebrated for its perfect proportions, meticulously designed around the ancient mathematical "Golden Ratio" (1:1.618). This specific piece dates back to approximately 1978–1979 based on its internal case serial number. It features the most sought-after configuration in the collection: a solid 18k yellow gold case paired with a breathtaking Blue Sunburst dial. The ultra-thin profile sits incredibly flat on the wrist on the original Patek Philippe strap and yellow gold buckle, making it the ultimate understated luxury dress watch. Powered by Patek Philippe’s legendary ultra-thin, manually wound Caliber 215, this timepiece represents a golden era of mechanical watchmaking. It is fitted on a pre-owned black leather strap that perfectly complements the rich yellow gold and vibrant blue tones.
