Patek Philippe Ellipse 3546 in White Gold

Picked up this manual wind Patek Golden Ellipse dating from 1969.

The white gold case and blued yellow gold dial are both in phenomenal condition.

The light play on the dial is insane. So many different shades of blue.

Was motivated to buy this as it’s Keanu Reeves daily beater. And he’s a stylish dude.

Congrats it a great watch, have you entered the matrix

I never really thought of Reeves as stylish, but it's good to see a luxury watch here. There is so much right with this seemingly simple design.

Not yet! I think maybe I needed to take the red watch for that - not this blue one.

Lovely isn’t it. Most of them have a lugless design but this 3546 ref has more traditional lugs. Will make for easier strap purchases at least..

This is just perfection to me. Congratulations!

An absolute beauty!

Shows us the movement 😍

Congratulations!  Along with the Gondolo, I think this is a criminally underrated piece from their catalog.

My guy, you certainly are a man of taste. I considered the yellow gold version of this  some time ago before the exponential rise of price, but I came back to the store too late. enjoy the fine art on your wrist!

Wow! Beautiful watch - nice choice of dial color too

It's an awesome pick-up -- there's no denying that.  But, that said, I'm not a huge fan of manual wind watches with no seconds hand -- how can you be sure that the watch is still running?

Can just about hear it ticking if I hold it to my ear...
