The Nautilus is Gerald Genta's 1976 porthole, the steel sports watch that redefined what Patek Philippe could be. The Tiffany dial is the last chapter of the 5711, made to mark 170 years of the two houses selling side by side, and it is the most talked about wristwatch of the modern era.

This Patek Philippe Nautilus wears a 40mm stainless steel case with an embossed Tiffany blue dial. Automatic 26-330 S C inside.

Fun fact: Only 170 were made, one for each year Tiffany had sold Patek in the United States, and every dial carries the Tiffany & Co. signature under the Patek name. The first to reach auction sold for over six million dollars, months after the model had been discontinued.

The collection

Nautilus

Patek's sports watch of 1976, its case shaped after a ship's porthole

Patek introduced the Nautilus in 1976, drawn by Gerald Genta and shaped, as the house still describes it, after a ship's porthole. The original ref. 3700/1 was 42mm across and 7.6mm deep, water resistant to 120m, and sold in steel on an integrated bracelet at a time when Patek was known for gold dress watches; it was later nicknamed the Jumbo. The rounded octagonal bezel, the two ears at the case sides and the horizontally embossed dial still identify it. The family now runs from a time and date model through the chronograph and the travel time flyback chronograph, the moon phase with power reserve, and annual and perpetual calendars, with smaller diamond set versions alongside.

Sizes in the family

35.2mm on the smaller models, 40mm to 41mm on the rest

Who it suits

For the buyer who wants the Patek name in something worn without ceremony, on a bracelet rather than a strap.
