The Golden Ellipse was introduced in 1968 and signalled a departure from the traditional shapes in watchmaking. The Ellipse also dispensed with the traditional extended lugs found on other watches, only allowing the end of the strap to briefly interrupt the smooth lines of the case.
The watch features a beautiful deep blue sunburst dial with applied 18k yellow-gold pointed stick indices and matching 18k yellow-gold stick hands. The watch comes on a luxurious black alligator leather strap.
