Patek Philippe introduced the reference 3960 in 1989 to commemorate the firm’s 150th anniversary. This reference was produced in a limited edition of 2200 pieces and of those pieces, 2000 were cased in yellow gold. The design for this model was influenced by wristwatches of the 20th century with rounded cases and bezels. This watch is fairly uncommon and a must for any serious collector!
