Introduced in 1998 as the first Nautilus to feature a complication beyond the date, it marked the triumphant return of the original "Jumbo" case proportions—measuring a bold yet wearable 40mm (or 42mm measured from ear to ear) in stainless steel with the iconic porthole-inspired design by Gérald Genta. Its matte black dial exudes understated sporty elegance: applied Roman numerals, a delicate railroad minute track, and the signature power reserve indicator at 12 o'clock—a clever mechanical display with a rotating graduated scale and pointer that reveals the remaining wind. Housed inside is the robust automatic Caliber 330 SC (with central seconds and date), delivering reliable performance and that unmistakable Patek finishing. The integrated steel bracelet completes the seamless, tool-watch-meets-luxury aesthetic.
