Dating from the 1980s, this 3800 series is presented in an elegant 37mm steel and 18k yellow gold case with matching \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eintegrated bracelet, Patek Philippe Calibre 335SC automatic movement, and a classic blue tapestry dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Nautilus - in any of its variations - is a very special thing. But there's something about a two-tone blue dial that just \u003cem\u003edoes it\u003c\/em\u003e for us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePatek Philippe’s history has been driven by its discerning female clientele.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOne of the company’s earliest clients was a Madame Goscinska, who bought the first three watches Patek Philippe ever produced. Although meant to be worn on brooches or suspended from chains at the waist, these watches were remarkable for their exquisite construction, featuring enamel decorations surrounded by diamonds, and often containing complications like a keyless winding system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eQueen Victoria herself fell in love with one such watch at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eWhen Patek Philippe made its first wristwatches in the 1870s, they were not for men, but for women, who liked the practicality of a wrist-worn watch while engaged in sports like horseback riding. These watches were petite and stylish, and powered by movements so small that they could fit into a ring. To manufacture parts on such a scale requires mastery, which the watchmakers at Patek Philippe certainly possessed… and still do.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Patek Philippe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39249307795543,"sku":"40930007","price":42000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/AS03883_40930007_PATEK-PHILIPPE_NAUTILUS-TWO-TONE-MIDSIZE_3800-1-6.jpg?v=1614620649","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/patek-philippe-nautilus-two-tone-as03883","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
