Men's Golden Ellipse
Description
For the first time, Patek Philippe presents its Golden Ellipse in a large format with a platinum case.
The original large-format Golden Ellipse, coveted among collectors and connoisseurs alike, was
crafted from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. The cool sheen of platinum underscores the timeless
elegance of the new extra large case of the Ref. 5738P, amplified by the divinely proportioned form
that strikes a chord in our quest for harmony.
