Patek Philippe Nautilus 3800 'Blue'
Patek Philippe Nautilus — Ref. 3800 / Blue Dial / Full Set (1995)
The Ref. 3800 is the connoisseur’s Nautilus — the “off-menu” choice that blends Gérald Genta’s legendary design with a more versatile 37.5 mm case. Introduced in 1981, it gave the Nautilus line a more wearable profile without losing the razor-sharp bezel, integrated bracelet, or the porthole inspiration that made the original 3700 an icon.
This 1995 example, with its rich blue dial and horizontal embossing, delivers the perfect balance of sport and elegance. The automatic calibre 335 SC brings a central seconds hand and date function, while the case and bracelet retain that unmistakable Nautilus feel — slim, refined, and comfortable.
Coming as a complete set, it offers not only one of the most versatile Nautilus references ever made, but also one with undeniable collector cachet. A piece that proves you don’t need 40 mm to make a big impression especially when it remains in a condition such as this example we have for you today.
