Description
PATEK PHILIPPE NAUTILUS REF. 3800 IN STEEL AND GOLD – From 1980 Reference No. 3800 Year: circa 1980 Material: Steel and gold Dimensions: 37mm Calibre: Automatic Crystal: Sapphire Bracelet: Steel and gold Introduced in 1981, the Patek Philippe Nautilus reference 3800 was conceived as a more versatile interpretation of Gérald Genta’s celebrated design, retaining all the defining characteristics of the original Nautilus whilst offering slightly more compact proportions. Produced until the early 2000s, this reference has become one of the most sought-after vintage Nautilus models amongst collectors. This particular example is distinguished by its elegant combination of stainless steel and yellow gold, complemented by a refined champagne-coloured dial whose warm tone perfectly enhances the sophistication of the two-tone case and bracelet. Powered by the ultra-thin automatic calibre, the reference 3800 embodies the seamless blend of sportiness and elegance that has defined the Nautilus collection for decades. With its iconic porthole-inspired case, integrated bracelet and timeless aesthetic, the Nautilus 3800 remains a cornerstone of modern watch design and an enduring symbol of Patek Philippe’s mastery in luxury sports watchmaking.
