Birth year watches
Watches made in 1976.
Patek Philippe introduced the Nautilus in 1976, another Genta design, another steel watch at a price that made people argue. The luxury sports watch was no longer a one off.
Most 1976 watches are quartz by this point, slim, and often gold plated. They were the everyday watches of their moment and they have aged into something quietly stylish.
