The Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse is a masterpiece of timeless elegance, bridging the gap between a circle and a rectangle with its harmonious proportions, inspired by the mathematical Golden Ratio. Since its debut in 1968, the Golden Ellipse has stood apart from conventional designs, presenting a unique silhouette with smooth, flowing lines uninterrupted by traditional extended lugs. The 35 x 31 mm 18k yellow gold case of this exquisite Ref. 3838/1 exemplifies understated luxury. Its blue soleil dial, adorned with simple stick markers and white “Quartz” lettering at six o’clock, is a stunning focal point. This model’s dial also features a highly collectible detail: a Beyer double signature, a testament to its exclusivity and provenance. Beyer, founded in 1760, is the world’s oldest family-owned watch retailer and a close partner of Patek Philippe for over a century. Their long-standing collaboration has yielded rare and exceptional pieces, such as this double-signed Golden Ellipse, which is a true collector’s item. The quartz Caliber E27 movement inside offers precision and reliability, and the watch has been fully checked by our watchmaker, including a freshly fitted battery. Complementing the case is a Bulang & Sons leather strap, paired with an 18k yellow gold Patek Philippe Ellipse buckle, enhancing its sophistication and wearability. This rare and elegant dress watch embodies the artistry and heritage of Patek Philippe. Whether for a collector or connoisseur of fine watches, this piece is sure to leave a lasting impression.
