Patek Philippe à Genève, "Nautilus", Movement No. 1427376, Ref. 3800/003, Cal. 335SC aut., 37 x 39 mm, circa 1989
An elegant automatic Geneva wristwatch "Nautilus" with centre seconds, date, brilliant-cut diamond bezel and indexes, sold on May 16th, 1989. With original box, original certificate and brochures
Case: 18k gold, 18k gold Patek Philippe bracelet with deployant clasp. Dial: gold, night blue, structured.
In 1976 Patek Philippe launched its first Nautilus model. At this time, luxury sports watches are expected to be as thin as possible, so this large watch with its brawny ship's porthole design is completely novel.
The first model of the collection is the Ref. 3700/1; a Swiss patent is awarded for its water-resistant case (up to 120 meters).
