====== Patek Philippe Nautilus Moon Phase 3712 ======

{{wst>image_cr|Patek Philippe|Nautilus Moon Phase 3712}}

The **[[Patek Philippe Nautilus|Nautilus]] Moon Phase Ref. 3712** is a sports watch by [[Patek Philippe]], introduced in [[2005]] and retired in [[2006]] with the introduction of the new [[Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712|Nautilus 5712/1]].

This is the single-year moon phase version of the original Nautilus from the first generation of the [[Patek Philippe Nautilus|Nautilus family]].

=== Info ===
Like the rest of the [[Patek Philippe Nautilus]] family, Ref. 3712 has the well-known integrated and water-tight "porthole" case penned by [[Genta, Gérald Charles|Gérald Genta]].

Introduced in [[2005]], the Nautilus Ref. 3712 was the first real [[complication|complicated]] Nautilus. It includes a [[power reserve indicator]] inside the 11 00 position on the dial like the [[Patek Philippe Nautilus 3710|3710/1A]] but adds a [[subdial]] with date pointer and [[moon phase]]. This watch uses the [[PP 240|Cal. 240 PS]] [[automatic]] movement with a [[micro rotor]] and is the first Nautilus model to include a sapphire crystal on the back so the movement can be viewed.

The Nautilus Ref. 3712 is highly sought-after today because it lasted in production for only one model year, [[2005]], before the entire line was replaced in [[2006]] by the new [[Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712|Nautilus 5712/1]].
