Notes

The Patek Philippe Nautilus 3800 represents an icon fitting shapes and curves designed by the genius of Gérald Genta. In essence, the reference 3800 is a scaled down version of the 3700.
This small modification offered a vast and creative playground for Patek Philippe to create avant garde and extravagant timepieces that may have been too boorish in a larger sized case.
The present 3800 is a full 18K yellow gold example including the integrated bracelet; the blue dial is stunning with its multiple shades.
The watch comes in excellent condition and is accompanied by the original Patek Philippe certificate of warranty.
