Just stopped today to try a few 3800 s in a shop.
I loved all three of course.
Blue/grey dial is awesome. Very deep. Such a fine and detailed dial... Best dial of all three. (But not best overall feeling)
Gold with white dial was really nice too but I was pretty sure of this before I got in the shop.
The dual color steel/gold was the most surprising one! I thought I would dislike it... but I think it was my favourite!! Maybe I will add it to the fleet soon ;-)
PS : Mine is the Roman numbers dial.

You post at the right time!
I was really looking at those 2-tone and full yellow gold older references of the Nautilus lately. They have a charm I'm very attracted by. I would have add a full yellow gold 3700 as well (but I imagine not the same budget either). The last one has a dia...
Two tone seems to gain some market shares today beside watch collectors after a long dry period
Another example of this new trend... the new AP RO 15400
The gold / steel version is also my favorite
In 38 mm it is not too overt and simply classy. Saw once an elderly gentlemen wearing it on the street and it looked very good. Not only on an elderly man! Best Moritz
Go to what sings to your heart.
If its the two tone , go for it. And i feel you choose well. Cause it too is my choice. Cheers Geross.
Extra links
Lovely 3800s! I want to ask if I were to buy a 3800 and needed extra links to fit my wrist, would the Patek service side have extra links to sell me?
They do guarantee having every parts for vintage pieces.
They can take any watch, service it and remake it from new. If they don\'t have the parts (which is unusual listening to the PP Geneva Salon), they just make them for you! So, links is not an issue. For example they had an original 1943 buckle in white go...
Yeah, I know this.
They made for my wife's vintage new hands, new glass, new buckle, springs, etc. And it was cheap. At the moment they work with my daughters over 100 years old, stunningly beautiful, wristwatch. Several internal parts need to be produced and it will take s...
