Thanks...
Thanks alot for the input. Started to belive there was something wrong with the movement in the 3800 or something. I'm wearing a 39 mm today and kind of like that size. I sure don't need a larger watch. One of the main objectives to a new watch would be to be versatile.
Found one with the same birth year as myself in crazy condition! Though. gah.
Nautilus 3700 and 3800
Hi, As a new member on this forum I must start off by saying: WOW. You guys got some watches! As a student I don't yet have the financials to buy a brad new PP. How ever I'm considering to buy a used Nautilus from the 80s or 90s. I'v notices that the 3700...
It's just a matter of fashion.
People appreciate bigger watches - for the time being... A friend of mine who is about 190 cm tall and having a muscular body, is wearing 3800. It looks great on his wrist - sportive but at the same time elegant. Go for 3800; it's a great Patek. Best, Kar...

agree and disagree Kari
It is personal taste and if a tall guy wears a 3800 it's his choice, if he likes it it is his choice so I agree this is a personal thing but 'People appreciate bigger watches - for the time being...' I'm sure we'll never go back to 36 mm watches. 47 was t...
Actually, small watches have their " Glory Time ".
For two reasons: 1/ More and more people are attracted by Vintage. Who would complain about a Longines 13 ZN or 30CH? I see more and more people looking after one. Same for the 35 mm Geophysic, or even the smaller Reverso. 2/ Which can be seen as a prolon...

You said more and more are attracted by Vintage .... I'm sorry but I think you're wrong People like you, me, us ... people who read and post about these watches are probably less the 3 % of all the people who BUY watches. You might know a few who like vin...
More and more doesn't mean that people who like Vintage are a majority.
Nor that they will be the majority. But when people compare the finish of the old and the new watches, their look, the soul, and sometimes the value / quality ratio, then you'll see that more and more people are attracted by Vintage. This is the phenomeno...
13 zn
is ofcourse the watch to get if you have the choice between a modern Longines and a 13 zn but like said, if Longines would remake the 13 zn or Zenith the 135 I'm sure most would prefer it in a 40 mm and not a 35 mm IF the 13 zn or Zenith 135 would also ha...
Don't get me started with 3800 ...
.... i simply adore Nautilus 3800. The biggest difference in my experience with nautilus , i would have to say , it is much more difficult to find a Mint condition 3700, simply they have been around longer. Most people really did used these watches as a d...
Super cool ...
to see them all in one box. Number 2 and 4 (from left) would be my personal favorites, but all of them are more than interesting. Thanks a lot, for sharing with us! Which one is your favorite, by the way? Oliver
Nautilus, all of them ...
are superb watches for what they are. To go for a smaller one is just a matter of personal taste and the size of your wrist. Smaller doesn´t mean worse! Even when the crowd asks for bigger watches, who cares as long as you love your watch. Everybody´s dar...
Tic-Toc do you realise............
That you have nearly got one for each day of the week? :) Or were you wearing one while taking the photos? :) Regards Tony
