With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1978 and its subsequent sale on April 20th of the same year. Further accompanied by a Patek Philippe Original Certificate of Origin and product literature.
To the best of our knowledge this watch has never before been offered in public.
Reference 3700, the "Jumbo" Nautilus was produced from 1976 until around 1998. At the time it was launched, the Nautilus was advertised as the most expensive steel watch on the market. The watch was designed by Gerald Genta, as a competitor to Genta's already successful Audemars Piguet Royal Oak model. The watch was advertised as being "possibly the most exclusive steel watch you can own".
Examples of the reference 3700-1 are illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by M. Huber & A. Banbery, 1998, pages 230 & 231
