Jumbo in vintage < Jumbo today
A Golden Ellipse "Jumbo" ref. 3589, is quite perfect on my wrist after all. However, perhaps "Jumbo" in the 70s is not quite big enough in today's modern world. Not that it affects me at all ;-) ...
Good looking Ellipse Jumbo you have !
Love the sunburst dial and its color ! What is the official name of the color ? The strap matches the dial and case very well. Have you had it for long ?
Watch is only a week on the wrist
Swapped with a friend. Do not know the name of the dial colour; but looks to be brown. I've only ever seen one other in similar config, but that's on bracelet. Wears wonderful!
Are there many...
...carved numeral examples? I do not see very many like this, and wondered if it was common or tied to a certain year of production.
I can't answer precisely.
But ref. 3404 also has carved indexes. Span Style Color Gray Patek Philippe Span An Attractive Square Patek Best, Emmanuel
That really is a stunning looking Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse "Jumbo".
The colour of the dial is just stunning and the watch looks more than big enough for your wrist, wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc
