ABOUT THIS WATCH

PATEK PHILIPPE REF. 5738R

Introduced in 1968, the Golden Ellipse is one of Patek Philippe’s most distinctive designs. Inspired by the golden ratio, its proportions sit between a circle and a rectangle. Reference 5738R pairs this iconic form with rose gold, a deep black dial and the exceptionally slim Caliber 240.

CURATOR’S NOTE

Far more compelling in hand than on paper. The 5738R has a quiet presence that reveals itself through its proportions and restraint — the kind of watch that photographs never quite capture.
