Patek Golden Ellipse ‘Jumbo’ 3738/100

Patek Golden Ellipse 'Jumbo' Reference 3738/100 With its timeless and genderless design the Golden Ellipse is a watch with a quiet pedigree. Its charm and enduring appeal is a proof of its universality which make this model the second-longest-running line in the Patek Philippe collection, bested only by the more conventional Calatrava. Today, of course, blue dials have been a defined trend for a few years. In the era of the Ellipse, blue offered a non-conformist, vibrant alternative to the monochrome that was perfectly in keeping with the shape and aesthetic of the collection. But, just as the case had to be exceptional, so too the blue. Here, Patek Philippe made magic happen. Fitted with the thin 240 self-winding movement that Patek is still using today in the current reference of the Ellipse. Bearing a striking blue sunburst 'Sigma' dial. At the bottom of the dial where it says "Swiss Made" are two Sigma signs, which signify that the hour markers and hands are made of gold. The actual dial on this watch is made out of gold too but Patek used a special chemical reaction to turn the dial blue. The cherry on top of this classy masterpiece is the ellipse shaped buckle which defines the extreme attention to details. These 'Jumbo' Ellipse watches are great on the wrist for both men and women.
