PATEK PHILIPPE, YELLOW GOLD 'GOLDEN ELIPSE', REF. 3589/1
This fantastic ultra-thin Golden Ellipse model features an automatic movement and impressively measures under 6 mm. in total thickness, thanks to the LeCoultre-based Caliber 28-255, the same one that was also sported in the original Nautilus reference 3700. Interestingly, this timepiece sat in the store for 6 years before being purchased in 1982.
