Catalogue Essay
The present example is one iteration of the 3800 and was manufactured in 18k yellow gold and stainless steel with white grooved dial. The modern style and design of the Nautilus is retained but it is now more restrained in the smaller case and appeals to a larger audience including both men and woman. The gold accents give the watch a dressed up feel, and it is a model that can easily go from the outdoors, to a fancy dress event in a single day.
