Notes

Property of the original Swiss owner. Launched in 1976, the Jumbo gold Nautilus ref 3700 was produced until about 1990. Made in 2 references, the first series under reference 3700/1J and the second, such as this example 3700/11J. The first series were equipped with the famous cork box while the second a small grey box such as this one. Bought new by the current consignor, complete with its original box and certificate of origin, a great example, never seen on the market, a chance to acquire one of the 1500 pieces ever produced.
