About this watch

Introduced in 1968, the Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse broke from traditional round and rectangular case designs with its distinctive oval silhouette, its proportions based on the golden ratio (1:1.618). The petite reference 4132 pairs this cushioned Ellipse case with an integrated, finely textured 18ct yellow gold bracelet, reflecting the jewellery-led design Patek Philippe was known for in this era. A Patek Philippe Mini Ellipse reference 4132 in 18ct yellow gold, featuring a rich burgundy sunburst dial with applied gold baton markers and slim gold hands, finished with the signed Patek Philippe clasp. The 20mm case houses a manual-wind movement. This excellent vintage example is presented with a Patek Philippe box. The bracelet measures 16cm in length.
