The Golden Ratio, Perfected in Blue

Bold yet balanced, the Patek Philippe Ellipse redefined traditional watch design when it debuted in 1968 — its elliptical shape based on the divine golden ratio. This very rare white gold 3738 reference, the coveted “Jumbo”, brings that vision to its most elegant and wearable form.

The flawless MK3 sunburst blue dial — a signature of the Ellipse line — radiates under light, subtly shifting in tone with every movement. Powered by the ultra-slim Calibre 240, a Patek Philippe icon, this watch pairs technical finesse with pure visual harmony.

Exceptionally well-preserved and fitted with its original strap and white gold buckle, this is Patek at its most poetic — quietly luxurious and deeply timeless.
