3687 Dzus (A908 TC) is a main-belt asteroid discovered on October 7, 1908 by Kopff, A. at Heidelberg Observatory. Observations made in 2002 at the Santana Observatory in Rancho Cucamonga, California showed a rotation period of 7.44 ± 0.01 hours. During each rotation, the brightness of 3687 Dzus varied by 0.25 ± 0.04 in magnitude.[2]

It was named by Brian Geoffrey Marsden, long-time director of the Minor Planet Center, in honor of Paul K. Dzus in appreciation of his helpful assistance since October 1987, much of the time as a volunteer.[3]
