This reference 3800 in steel has many appealing attributes. The first is the overall condition. The watch has incredibly sharp features and case lines and appears to be in unpolished condition. The watch is still retaining its original Nautilus clasp and the bracelet itself is in beautiful condition. The dial is also incredibly well preserved, but elevating this watch above all other Patek Philippe reference 3800s is the extremely rare Tiffany & Co. signature found above 6 o’clock.
It is not known exactly how many reference 3800s were retailed by Tiffany & Co., however they are incredibly rare to come by and this example combined with its extremely well preserved condition is a true collector’s watch.
