The Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 3700/11J stands as one of the most historically significant references in the collection, representing the original “Jumbo” design that defined the luxury sports watch category. Crafted in yellow gold, it offers a rare and highly collectible interpretation of Gérald Genta’s iconic vision.
The black ribbed dial reflects the purity of the first-generation Nautilus, featuring applied yellow gold baton hour markers and matching hands. Its minimalist layout emphasizes balance and proportion, staying true to the original design language.
Powered by an automatic movement, the watch is housed in the signature monobloc-style case and paired with an integrated yellow gold bracelet. The 3700/11J remains one of the most coveted vintage Nautilus references, prized for its rarity and foundational role in the collection’s history.
Includes photocopy of original papers and Patek Philippe travel pouch.
