The original Nautilus, reference 3700/1 in stainless steel, was finally introduced in 1976. This model was later nicknamed "Jumbo" for its generous size. At the time a diameter of 42 mm was considered pretty large. The watch was also very thin with a height of just 7.60 mm.
To power the watch, Patek Philippe used the automatic calibre 28-255 C, based on Jaeger-LeCoultre's caliber 920. This same movement was used in the first Audemars Piguet Royal Oak reference 5402 and in the Vacheron Constantin 222.
