The Golden Ellipse was launched in 1968. A dress 1:1 wholesale fake watches with a distinctive aesthetic, it quickly became a hit. Following the first blue-dialled model in yellow gold, with a mesh bracelet or a leather strap, the minimalist timepiece – a two-hand watch with stick indexes – soon grew to become a full-fledged family. By the late ‘70s, the Golden Ellipse was produced in 65 different variants.
Aside from being offered in other colours of gold and various dial colours, with applied hour markers or Roman numerals, and as high-jewellery options, the watch also lent itself to creative remixing with other case shapes. Its case shape was combined with several others, including rectangular and octagonal forms; there was even a Nautilus Ellipse that united the porthole-shaped case of UK perfect replica Patek Philippe watches’ now-popular sports watch with the elongated lines of the Ellipse.
Naturally, strap options also abounded. In the first two decades following its launch, the collection included leather straps as well as a variety of chain bracelets. The latter included the Milanese-style bracelet seen on models such as the Ref. 3548 (1968) as well as the Polish-style bracelet of Ref. 3605 (1974). This year, best fake Patek Philippe introduce a new chapter to the enduring story of the Golden Ellipse, which is the Genevan company’s second oldest watch model after the classic Calatrava.
The standout feature on the Golden Ellipse Ref. 5738/1R-001 in rose gold is a new chain-style bracelet. The result of 15 years of development, it is crafted in-house by Ateliers Réunis, one of many workshops housed within the UK high quality copy Patek Philippe manufacture. The case and bracelet manufacturer was a historic partner of Patek Philippe, and was acquired by the latter in 1975.
The luxury replica watches comprising 363 hand-polished parts, including over 300 links, the bracelet is assembled by hand in a patented construction that gives it an incredibly supple feel, and also tackles the limitations of older bracelets. Unlike previous versions, the new bracelet is easily adjustable, thanks to a clasp with three adjustment notches. The clasp’s cover is decorated with engraved motifs echoing the pattern of the chain, creating greater aesthetic cohesiveness.
A refined dial and a svelte form complete this picture of sophistication. Made of rose gold, applied baton hour markers and slender cheveau-style hands tastefully show the time on a black sunburst dial. Driven by UK cheap super clone Patek Philippe watches’ ultra-slim self-winding calibre 240, the case is a mere 5.9mm thick. This makes the Ref. 5738 (which currently includes three other references set on leather straps) the slimmest timepiece in Patek Philippe’s regular collection. Divine proportions, indeed.
