Originally debuted in 1968, the Golden Ellipse model designed by Patek Philippe has transcended the formality of employing only traditional shaped wristwatches. Its bold case design of balancing between roundness and rectangularity have led to what watch connoisseurs consider as a golden ratio.

Our reference 3748 / 1 comes in outstanding condition and a stunning blue sigma sunburst dial with the Patek Philippe manual Cal. 215. Icing on the cake is the integrated 18k yellow gold bracelet made by Ateliers Reunis.
