Patek Philippe Landscape Ellipse 3545 - 18k Yellow Gold Champagne Textured Dial

Trade In
Details

A Subversion Of The Golden Ratio

The Patek Philippe Ellipse is an icon of design, a case shape derived from the classical golden ratio that is neither round nor rectangular. The reference 3545 takes this a step further by rotating the famous geometry 90 degrees, creating a "landscape" profile that is wider than it is tall. This horizontal orientation gives the watch a completely different presence on the wrist, a confident statement that is distinctly from the 1980s. Paired with a textured champagne dial, this solid gold piece is a pure expression of its era.

Engineered As A Single Sculpture

This is a watch that was conceived as a continuous piece of 18k yellow gold. The case flows seamlessly into the integrated bracelet, a style of construction that was a hallmark of high-level watchmaking in the 1970s and 80s. The bracelet itself is a feat of craftsmanship, designed to feel like a substantial piece of jewelry. Because it houses a thin, manual-wind movement, the entire watch maintains a sleek profile, allowing over 94 grams of gold to wear with perfect balance.

A Well-Preserved Example

This Ellipse is in very good overall condition. The dial and crystal are both perfect, with the champagne texture showing no signs of age. The integrated 18k gold bracelet is in great shape, showing only a very slight warp that is not noticeable when worn. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

For The Confident Collector

This landscape Ellipse is for someone who appreciates the bold designs of the 1980s. It’s a dress watch that doesn't feel delicate. Winding the manual movement each day creates a bond with the machine, a small ritual that connects the owner to a long history of traditional watchmaking. The horizontal case and integrated bracelet make a definitive statement, a piece that is as much a part of a curated wardrobe as it is a serious piece of horology.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
