it should normally be in stock! In doubt you can give them a call or email. Generally the Ellipse is much more widely available than other Patek models. I own the WG one!
Thanks for pointing that out...do you have their email address for follow-up? Attempted to use their website's contact page earlier, but message didn't get transmitted due to technical issues from their end.
No I did not. Thank you for sharing I think I first saw this Ellipse on or near its 35th anniversary and had a good feeling about it then. It grew to the point that it's the "one" for me. I'm sure others may have felt the same way with their first.
