Hello!
This is Kaneko from Commit Ginza!
Today we are introducing our purchased items!!
Designed by Gerald Genta
The Nautilus, a symbol of sports elegance, was born in 1976.
The product we purchased this time is
38mm case manufactured from 1982 to 2005
This is the "Nautilus Ref.3800/1A".
The Ref.3800 has an exquisite size of 38mm and a case thickness of about 8mm.
Because it is extremely thin, it is said to be an extremely comfortable model to wear.
The dial is the most popular "blue dial"
The dial features a three-dimensional horizontal embossing
It's an elegant and beautiful dial no matter how you look at it.
*As far as I know, there are no stainless steel dial variations.
Blue (also available with 11P diamonds), white, black (Roman), ivory 11P diamonds, slate gray (Arabic)
etc.
The date is an early type with white letters on a black background.
*Later models have black text on a white background
The buckle is an early type plate single clasp.
*Early period: Plate single clasp ⇒ Mid-period: Hollow single clasp ⇒ Late period: Double clasp
The "Ref.3800" itself is becoming less and less available,
The combination of "black date + early single clasp"
The early model is hard to find.
There is no deterioration on the dial.
The tritium luminous material has also changed to a beautiful cream color.
It was a wonderful piece that allowed us to appreciate the unique qualities of semi-vintage.
The case condition is
As this is a one-owner, unpolished item,
There are some minor scratches from use,
The edge lines of the bezel, case, and bracelet are
It was kept in excellent condition.
What's even more surprising is the condition of the breath.
There was absolutely no wrinkling and it was in perfect condition!
Considering it's from the 1980s, it's in amazing condition!
Beautiful blue dial with black date
The attractive early Nautilus "Ref. 3800/1A"
This was an excellent example in excellent condition that allowed us to enjoy the quality that only an early model can offer.
