The Inside Story
Over 2,000 years ago, the mathematician Euclid uncovered the Golden Section—a principle of perfect proportion. During the Renaissance, Luca Pacioli dubbed it De Divina Proportione, describing the harmonious ratio of 1 to 1.6181. In the late 1960s, Patek Philippe masterfully applied this principle to create the Golden Ellipse, a timeless design that remains a cornerstone of the brand's portfolio.
An evolution of the original Ellipse family, this reference 3739/2 is housed in an eye-catching 36mm "TV" case crafted in 18k yellow gold. Introduced as part of the Golden Circle series, it stands apart with its bold design and unique proportions.
The stepped bezel is complemented by a small winding crown adorned with Patek's Calatrava cross. The star of the show is the rare hobnail-style gold dial, featuring sleek stick markers and non-luminous hands, with a hint of black enamel for legibility. The integrated 18k yellow gold "digital brick" bracelet is both supple and striking, accommodating wrists up to 19.5 cm.
Inside, the ultra-thin caliber 240 automatic movement powers the watch with precision. This iconic movement, paired with the watch’s design, exemplifies the perfect blend of artistry and engineering. Fully serviced by our watchmaker, this is a rare chance to own a unique piece of Patek Philippe history.
