New Patek Philippe 3700/013 Nautilus 18K Yellow Gold Diamond Bezel Blue Dial RARE
Why Collectors Love This This Patek Philippe Nautilus reference 3700/013 is a rare and striking variant of the original ‘Jumbo’ Nautilus, rendered in sumptuous 18K yellow gold with a factory-set diamond bezel and a richly ribbed blue dial. Introduced in the late 1970s, the Nautilus 3700 was designed by Gerald Genta and is celebrated for its slim profile and porthole-inspired case construction. The present model houses the ultra-thin automatic calibre 28‑255 C (Patek’s version of the Jaeger‑LeCoultre 920), a marvel of engineering that underscores the Nautilus’s blend of elegance and technical refinement. With its integrated bracelet design and robust 120‑meter water resistance, this gold diamond-set version elevates the original sports‑luxury concept to an opulent collector’s icon. Extremely limited in production—yellow gold 3700s numbered around 1,500 examples, with only a subset featuring diamond bezels—this piece is exceptionally rare. Its combination of precious metal, gem-setting, and the legendary 3700 lineage makes it a standout for serious collectors seeking both historical significance and horological prestige.
