Additional Informations: The Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 3700/011 is regarded as one of the most iconic luxury sports watches ever created. As a later execution of the legendary “Jumbo” Nautilus, it combines Gérald Genta’s original design with the more refined, tapered bracelet of the second generation — a highly sought-after and considerably rarer variation within the 3700 production series.
The example offered here dates to 1987 and presents itself in remarkable, unpolished condition. Particularly noteworthy are the desirable “Type 3” dial and the original narrow steel bracelet, which is especially appreciated among collectors for its harmonious proportions and comparatively limited production numbers. The sharp case edges, original satin finishing, and overall honest appearance further emphasize the watch’s exceptionally well-preserved condition.
Introduced in 1976, the Ref. 3700 is widely considered one of the most important wristwatches in modern horological history. It is estimated that only around 1,300 examples of the later Ref. 3700/011 with the narrow bracelet were produced, making this configuration especially desirable among collectors today.
Included in the sale are the original Patek Philippe box and the original certificate.
