Patek Philippe 5738P-001 Men's Golden Ellipse

The 5738P-001 Golden Ellipse features an elliptical case that lies between a circle and a rectangle. Its blue gold sunburst dial, with gold hands and hour markers, creates a striking visual effect. Introduced in 1968, the Golden Ellipse was a bold departure from traditional watch shapes, embodying a sense of inner harmony inspired by the “golden section” ratio of 1 / 1.6180, a principle discovered by ancient Greek mathematicians. This ratio is the foundation of many of history’s greatest works of art and architecture. The watch is powered by the ultra-thin self-winding caliber 240 movement. The platinum case measures 34.5 x 39.5 mm with a height of 5.9 mm and is water-resistant to 30 meters. It features a solid case back and is paired with a shiny navy blue alligator strap with a 15-mm Golden Ellipse prong buckle in platinum.
