Lot Essay

Patek Philippe is known for their accessories from the 1970s, but none are more alluring, rare, and collectible than the Golden Ellipse Lighter. These incredibly opulent lighters even cost more than entry level watches in their catalog at the time and came in a variety of precious metals and engraving motifs. With an approximated total production of less than 200 examples, less than a fifth of them are known, making the present timepiece an incredibly special offering.

The present Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Lighter reference 9504 is crafted from solid 18k white gold and features a beautiful 'Ocean' motif which has been handcrafted using a rose engine lathe by a master artisan. This meant that there was no room for error such as a single slip or mistake from the engraving operator. The lighter has a pleasurable heftiness and robust construction, thanks to the precious metal, and its presence and size feels wonderful in the hand. Fresh to market and from the family of the original owner, the present reference 9504 Golden Ellipse Lighter is a wonderful, functional accessory for daily use and would make an excellent addition to any astute watch collector’s collection.
