Unparalleled rarity captured in a design that has stood the test of time. "Jumbo" in size, "Great" in demand and "Mega" in historical significance.
The Nautilus was Patek Philippe's venture into the realm of casual chic sport watches. However nothing casual about the specimen we have to offer. Not only is it executed in 18K yellow gold, the indices of the dial are brilliant cut diamonds. Whereas the steel variant is an invitation to travel destinies, the present one is more likely to accompany your wrist while sipping a fancy cocktail at your holiday mansion. The gold and diamonds add so much flair, sophistication and suave cool to an already amazing watch, regardless of the metal or configuration.
Whereas reference 3700/001 was in production until 1981 and featured a straight bracelet, its successor -this reference 3700/11 with tapered bracelet- remained in production for slightly under a decade. This important timepiece is in time-capsule condition, displaying crisp hallmarks and showing the perfect lines and angles of this mesmerising design. Furthermore it comes with its box, the extract of the archives (dating the watch back to 1984 and it's subsequent sale 2 years later), and the original paperwork. Long story short, this belongs in a museum.
