Patek Philippe introduces the casually elegant Nautilus for ladies.
After the extremely successful relaunch of the Nautilus men’s collection in the fall of 2006, the Geneva workshops are finally presenting the new Nautilus ladies’ line. Its new models exhibit the same technical modifications and retouched design elements as the men’s watches, but in a size and with stylistic refinements that add irresistible feminine charm to the innate casual elegance of the Nautilus collection. The new ladies’ Nautilus models are available in white or rose gold with precious diamonds (Ref. 7010/1) or with a satin-finished bezel (Ref. 7011/1).
Launched in 1976, the Nautilus became a wildly popular “enfant terrible” in the category of casually elegant watches, setting itself apart with an unconventional porthole-inspired design and a rounded octagonal bezel. Introduced in 1981, the Ref. 3800 midsize model with the 37.5-mm case was soon seen more and more frequently on feminine wrists as well, so a year later, Patek Philippe presented the Ref. 4700, a 28.5-mm version styled explicitly for ladies. Thus, it is only natural that the successful redesign of the men’s Nautilus on the occasion of the collection’s 30-year anniversary in the fall of 2006 is now being followed by a completely new ladies’ Nautilus line. It interprets the technical and stylistic evolution of the prominent men’s watch with feminine aplomb.

The Nautilus, Patek Philippe’s paragon of casual elegance, is now available with complications for the first time.

For the very first time, Patek Philippe’s famous octagonal classic comes with three added functions: a power-reserve indicator, an analog date, and a moon-phase display.
To accommodate these new functions, the distinctive porthole case was perceptibly enlarged, evoking memories of the original model launched nearly thirty years ago.

Ultra-thin self-winding mechanical movement caliber 240 with Geneva Seal.
Dial with horizontal embossing and color transition from deep blue in the middle to black at the periphery.
