About the collection
The Golden Ellipse was introduced in 1968 with ref. 3548. Its shape sits between a circle and a rectangle, with proportions based on the golden ratio, and many versions have a deep blue gold dial that suits the plain, thin case.
The line has stayed small and consistent. References in the catalog include the 3738 family and the larger ref. 5738 introduced in 2008, in yellow, rose and white gold and platinum, many on gold bracelets. The 5738 uses the thin automatic caliber 240 with a micro-rotor. For dealers, case size, metal and whether the watch is on a strap or the original bracelet are the main points to state, along with the condition of the brushed dial.
