Golden Ellipse

Patek’s elliptical dress case, cut to golden-ratio proportions and in continuous production since 1968. The current 5738 "Jumbo" (34.5 x 39.5mm) and smaller 3738 generation both run the ultra-thin automatic cal. 240 with a 22K gold micro-rotor, the same base movement Patek uses across its thinnest automatic dress references.

Year introduced: 19681 reference
