With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the watch with black dial and applied indexes in white gold in 1980 and its subsequent sale on 25 June 1981 and an original fitted cork presentation box.
The legendary Nautilus collection was introduced in 1976 when Patek Philippe was looking for a strong design of inimitable personality. An inspiration for such a timepiece soon emerged: The universal shape of a porthole found on virtually all maritime vessels. Since then, the Nautilus has established itself as a classic elegant sports watch and the original reference, 3700/1 such as this watch, is one of the most sought-after timepieces at auction. Its rarity here is further enhanced by the charismatic and original "Nautilus" cork box, a treasure itself for the discerning collector.
For a reference 3700/1 in yellow gold and stainless steel, please see lot 4930 in this sale.
Ref. 3700/1 is described and illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, p. 231.
