Specialist note
The reference 3711 was only produced in white gold between 2004 and 2005. This along with the Ref. 3700 was discontinued in 2006 with the launch of the Nautilus Ref. 5711.
It is believed that approximately 700 examples of the Ref. 3711 were made, making it one of the most rare and difficult Nautilus timepieces to find.
Very similar to the reference 3700, the present timepiece carries perfectly the classic proportions of the original “Jumbo” Nautilus, whilst a subtle update resulted in a greater depth to its case. The wristwatch was powered by Cal. 315 SC movement, which featured a sweep centre seconds function and the date function.
Appealing and rare, the present timepiece represents a rare opportunity for Nautilus enthusiasts to obtain such a complete and nicely preserved example of the reference.
