Patek Philippe Nautilus | Quartz 33mm Women’s | Steel | Black Dial

The Birth of a Legend

In 1976 Gérald Genta unveiled a creation that would forever alter the language of luxury: a sports watch in steel, conceived from a porthole and sketched with fearless clarity. The Nautilus married industrial vigour with refined restraint, redefining how elegance could be casual, modern and unmistakably Patek Philippe.

A Symphony of Satin-Brushed and Polished Surfaces

• Reference Number: 3900/1
• The Porthole-Inspired Case: Distinctive octagonal bezel softened into a rounded profile, the signature silhouette that reads as both maritime and metropolitan.
• Horizontally Embossed Dial: Deep black, horizontally scored dial offering subtle depth and changing character with every angle of light.
• The Integrated Bracelet: Seamless stainless-steel bracelet, where the case flows directly into the first link—an architecture of comfort and visual continuity.
• Case Material and Diameter: Stainless steel — a noble, purposeful choice — in a poised 33 mm tailored for a feminine wrist.
• Calibre: Precision quartz movement, offering everyday reliability while preserving the purity of the Nautilus form.

The Curator’s Insight:
Legend has it that Genta drew the Nautilus on a napkin in a single inspired moment; it is that marriage of immediate intuition and exacting geometry—rounded forms meeting crisp planes—that gives the watch its timeless, utterly singular silhouette.

The Epitome of Casual Sophistication

The 33 mm Nautilus 3900/1 is a study in understated audacity: it speaks softly yet commands attention through proportion, surface treatment and an iconic outline. This is not merely a timekeeper but an emblem of effortless taste—an object that elevates the everyday and endures beyond fleeting trends.
