the two holy grail PAM for Panerai collectors
The two holy grail models for Panerai collectors. Can you name them?...
Tssss, Easy. PAM 21 and PAM 203.
Even if the 203 seems to have slightly lost its place, in the heart of the Panerai fans... Best, Nicolas
Why all the different reference numbers?
Every Radomir looks the same as other Radomir and the same applies to the Luminor family, assuming they have time only functions. Thus, what is the difference between a PAM 21 and a 22 or even 23? If you have one and like it, you 'own' all the others........
That was an unlucky guess: there actually was a PAM 22?
:-) Who would have thought that a randomly picked reference number would be a real Panerai model? Is the PAM 21 now desirable because they made few pieces and at that time, nobody bought them? Then, after production was stopped, it became cult? Regards MT...
Because, for chappies like me...
who like Panerai..A LOT..the dial of a Panerai should be like these ones below, full of...NOTHING. The 23 looks more like a...Breiteling with all the bells&whistles :-) ...
Well....
the 21 is a 47mm Radiomir, the 22 is a Left-handed Luminor 44mm, the 23 is a Luminor 44mm GMT with "seconds" hand. So, in fact, not very similar to one another :-) Ciao
Thanks: There is a PAM 23 too?
sergio4 As in my question to Amanico above, I did not expect that the number 23 really exists in numerical sequence. :-) I could not see a pattern relating to the case shape e.g Radomir start with numeral 2 or some rule like that. Regards, MTF
It will be a piece of cake for Anthony....
to answer your (may I add...easy...question) since he owns...both...of them :-) Ciao
I don't know the exact ref. numbers, but
as far as I know, the Luminor has an 8 day Angelus movement and the platin Radiomir a Rolex-Cotebert. Anyway, these Models are holy-Grails only in the modern Era of the Panerai-world, but please don't forget the real vintage pieces! Nice photos, by the wa...
Totally agree about the fact to not forget the Vintage.
You could also add some Pre V... ;) But that is why Thomas precised " PAM ". He was referring about grails among modern models. Without the PAM mention, I would have 100% agreed with you. ;) Best, Nicolas
Merci, Amanico. Exactement, mon ami...speedie74 I agree with you and ....
thanks for the nice words. PAM21 and PAM203
