Extract from the Archives confirming the production of the watch in 1974 and its sale in March 1977What caused an uproar in the watch world 50 years ago has now become a cult object: the sporty, elegant Nautilus from Patek Philippe. A watch made of steel did not fit into the cliché of gold luxury watches – especially not in this striking size and extravagant shape. Patek Philippe's aim was to appeal to a new generation of active, sporty people. The launch of the watch was supported by an advertising campaign that was as original as it was bold: “One of the most expensive watches in the world is made of steel!” was the headline of a sensational advertisement.
