Due to its history, the "Jumbo" is one of the most sought-after models in Patek Philippe's Nautilus series. Gerald Genta is responsible for the design. Reference 3700 was produced between 1976 and 1982. The present watch is executed with dotted minutes and a Sigma mark before and after the "Swiss" logo on the dial, respectively. Several Nautilus variants in different materials have been developed since 1976. Since the announcement of the manufacturer to discontinue the production of the "classic" steel model with the reference 5711/1A, interest in vintage models of the Nautilus has increased.
