The 5738R is an automatic, ultra-thin execution of Patek Philippe's Golden Ellipse, the model the manufacture introduced in 1968 built around the golden section proportion rather than a round or rectangular case. Its 34.5 by 39.5mm rose gold case is 5.9mm thick and runs the self-winding Caliber 240, a micro-rotor movement only 2.53mm thick on its own.
- The Golden Ellipse case proportions follow the golden ratio, a design Patek Philippe adopted for the line at its 1968 introduction.

How do I check a Patek Philippe 5738R with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
