An unusual Patek Philippe model in outstanding condition, dating from the late 1970s: Reference 3605, Jumbo Ellipse with automatic movement, the ultraflat Nautilus Jumbo 28-255C. Reference 3605 was produced from 1971 to 1984 and was the largest of the Ellipse D'Or models made by Patek Philippe. This timepiece embodies elegance and timeless style. The design adheres to the "golden ratio". The flat 18 K white gold case, the exquisite integrated white gold bracelet and the fascinating blue shimmering dial create an harmonious and vibrant visual effect and make the piece a luxurious 1970s dress watch with a modern vintage character.
