Nautilus White Gold Diamond White Dial 37mm

The Patek Philippe Nautilus White Gold Diamond White Dial (ref. 3800/4G-001) captures the elegant, sporty spirit of Gérald Genta's original design with an added degree of refinement. Part of the midsize 37mm Nautilus lineage, this rare reference pairs 18k white gold construction with a factory-set diamond bezel and indices – a subtle shift in tone that tempers its nautical origins with formal sophistication.

The rounded octagonal case is compact yet weighty, featuring satin-brushed surfaces mirrored across the integrated bracelet. The white lacquer dial is clean and symmetrical, enhanced by diamond hour markers and the signature aperture at 3 o’clock. Inside, the watch is powered by the in-house calibre 335 SC, offering a central seconds hand, date display, and approximately 45 hours of power reserve. Water-resistant to 120m, the ref. 3800/4G-001 maintains the robust standards set by the original 1976 Nautilus.

Often overshadowed by its larger siblings, the 3800 series carries distinct appeal for collectors seeking vintage Nautilus design in a more versatile case size. The factory diamond setting and white gold case further elevate this reference into seldom-seen territory, adding to its long-term desirability.
