FS: 1982 Patek Philippe Nautilus 3700 Tropical Blue Dial with Box and Papers

Serial #: 539XXX

Description: Case: The case is excellent showing prominent beveling and only light wear from use. The stainless bezel is also in excellent condition showing prominent beveling and only light wear form use. Dial: The blue dial is excellent showing a vibrant bronze tropical patina beginning to show through the top layer of enamel. The lume has aged to a warm creamy hue and the hands match perfectly. Bracelet: The 22 link Nautilus bracelet is excellent showing only extremely light stretch. The bracelet will fit up to a 18.4 cm. / 7.24" wrist. Accessories: Box and Papers. Notes The Patek "box guy" must have been having a hell of a Monday to glue the top pillow in upside down. It makes us wonder what the party scene was like in Geneva in the 80’s.

FS: 2000 Patek Philippe 18K YG Aquanaut 5065/1J-001 with Box and Papers

Serial #: 3012XXX

Description: Case: The 38mm 18k yellow gold case is excellent showing a warm rosy patina and only light wear from use. The 18k yellow gold bezel is also in excellent condition showing only light wear form use. Dial: The black grenade tritium dial is excellent showing no visible wear. The lume has aged to a warm vibrant goldenrod hue and the hands have aged significantly lighter than the dial. Bracelet: The 12 link 18K yellow gold Patek bracelet is excellent showing only very light stretch. The watch will fit a 7 inch wrist. Accessories: Box, Papers & Extra Link (Missing the Screw). Notes: In stainless the nautilus bracelet is fine. However it might be one of the few instances where a strap is preferred by most who have an opinion on the matter. In gold however it’s a different story. The bracelet with its big chunky brick links seems as though it was designed specifically for gold. Adding to the watch another level of complexity and thrusting it out from under the shadow of it’s older brother.
