Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Medium White Gold 31.1mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 31.1 mm case size

Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Medium White Gold 31.1mm measures 35.6 mm lug-to-lug on a 31.1 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.14 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 97% of the 8,010 watches in this database and shorter than 94% of the 79 Patek Philippe watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 40 mm (1.57 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 48 mm (1.89 in) it starts to look compact. Below 35.6 mm (1.40 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 5.99 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 100% of the watches with a listed thickness.
