Executed in 18k yellow gold, the Patek Philippe Ellipse d’Or Ref. 3738/106 is defined by its balanced proportions derived from the golden ratio resulting in the distinctive elliptical case that has become an enduring symbol of the model line. The Beyer double-signature on the dial adds an appealing layer of provenance, connecting the watch to one of the world’s most respected retailers of Patek Philippe. In addition to the double-signature, this example comes on an extremely rare bracelet configuration with a Patek Philippe folding clasp instead of the usual jewelry clasps fitted to most Ellipse bracelets. With its elegant simplicity, reliable automatic movement, and exceedingly rare bracelet, this example offers collectors a chance to acquire a classic Patek design with an added note of historical interest.
