3800A, Nautilus, Steel
A ref. 3800A, Patek Philippe’s first mid-sized Nautilus launched in 1981 just 4 years after its 42mm predecessor. The 3800 was aimed at a broad appeal with its restrained proportions, 37.5mm, and a variety of case metals and dial configurations on offer. This example’s steel case and ‘noir’ tritium dial is the most classic variant, tying in directly to the model’s sport origins. Its dial has aged beautifully, a deep midnight blue with hints of green that emerge in direct sunlight. It is Nautilus understated, offering the same silky and ultra-thin wearing experience as its larger predecessor in a more approachable case size.
