To answer the demands of clients wishing for a smaller case, Patek Philippe produced the Nautilus reference 3800 with a diameter of 37.5 mm, as opposed to the larger 41 mm case of its sister reference, 3700. Made between 1981 and 2006 in several versions, this present reference 3800 is a bi-metal example that reflects the eternal allure of the Nautilus designed by the iconic Gérald Genta. With a strong presence on the wrist, the combination of metals as well as its blue dial provide sophistication to what is already a very versatile and wearable watch.
