Footnotes

The Patek Philippe Ellipse ref 3738 epitomizes the geometric sophistication and refined elegance of the 1970s. Its gracefully oval case, inspired by the timeless 'Golden Section,' exudes perfect balance and an unmistakable silhouette.
The exquisite sunburst blue dial, celebrated for its serene minimalism, showcases the purity of its lines and the harmony of its proportions. This distinguished example features a 'sigma' dial, where the hour markers and hands are meticulously crafted from solid gold. At its heart beats a high-precision automatic movement, a true reflection of Patek Philippe's legendary Geneva craftsmanship.

The daring yet harmonious design, combined with flawless execution, renders it a treasure coveted by discerning collectors. Rare and highly desirable on the market, the ref 3738 stands as an enduring symbol of horological prestige and avant-garde artistry.
