Comment: The Nautilus "Jumbo" reference 3700 was produced from 1976 until about 1998, powered by the ultra-flat automatic movement of the time: the 28-255 C calibre. The cases manufactured by Favre-Perret were in steel, steel and gold, 18-carat yellow gold, white gold and platinum with dials handcrafted by the highly skilled designers at Stern Frères. A "must have" for all afficionados of the Patek Philippe brand as well as discerning collectors looking for an original model. This design by Gerald Genta is certainly one of the most beautiful pages in the history of watchmaking for almost half a century.
