Notes

Patek Philippe, Ref. 3893
This reference is launched in 1980.
This reference was mostly made in 18K yellow gold with metallic ivory colour dials with 18K yellow gold radial applied indexes and “Dauphine” hands.
18K yellow gold or white gold versions are known with white metallic dials with guilloché (engine-turned) motif in the centre and black painted radial “Bâton” indexes and black “Bâton” hands.

At the end of the 1980’s or in 1990, the manufacture introduced on this reference white “porcelain” enamel dials with 18K yellow gold radial applied indexes and “Dauphine” hands.
