For the most delicate of us this 37.5mm timepiece is the alternative to its « Jumbo » sister the Nautilus ref.3700 (42mm). A true unisex watch! You have been warned, Madame will most likely borrow it more often that you would like. The watch proposed here is part of the second series with a white date disc, manufactured in sept 1990 sold by Astrua in october 1990.
Movement/case number: 1.xxx.527/xxxx597
Dial: Deep blue respecting the specifications Mr. Stern imposed to Mr Genta: « the true color of the ocean ». Sigma SWISS Sigma at 6h white date disc and no accent on the GENEVE are typical features of the post 1989 dials. Yellow gold hour index markers and hands filled with tritium. It flashes green and vanishes quickly which is how the tritium reacts.
Case: very nice and thick case revealing extremely limited polishing history. The sharp 3D calatrava cross on the clasp speaks for itself. Diameter 37.5mm. Thickness 7.9mm. Weight 136g.
Bracelet: the bracelet is extremely tight and it proudly stands-up. 21 links. Nautilus engraved on the clasp.
Box & papers: Original certificate of guarantee, Patek Philippe burgundy leather travel box.
