Reasons to Bid

This Audemars Piguet Ellipse Ref. 722 in 18k yellow gold offers the slim, elegant profile associated with AP’s dress designs of the period, powered by the JLC-based Caliber 2121, a movement known for its thin construction and steady performance. While the watch prominently hints at Patek Philippe’s Ellipse design, the blue dial with golden roman numerals provides a clear and balanced display, with the date positioned at 3 o’clock for extra versatility. The case remains in good condition, showing careful wear rather than heavy polishing. As a model produced in more limited numbers than other references, the 722 presents a well-made, gold automatic watch from a leading Swiss manufacturer, with a recognized high-grade movement and a distinctive, restrained design at an intriguing price point.
