Specialist note
Beginning in the early 1980s, Patek Philippe began to produce skeletonized wristwatches featuring lavish and intricate hand-engraved gold movements, such as the present reference 3883. Approximately 200 pieces were made, from which only 20 pieces are known to the market.
Measuring 31 mm., reference 3883 wears large thanks to the protruding lugs which elevate the watch on the wrist. The watch has cathedral hands, a cabachon crown, and measures 4.5 mm thin, further elevating the opulent presence of the timepiece.
