In a fine collection of Panerais, this one should indeed be considered.

The Mare Nostrum never really caught on with me
for some reason but I appreciate it for what it is. The bezel, case, and shape of the chronograph pushers always looked strange to me. Cheers, Anthony

A real beauty without a doubt
Again perfect harmony, functional and wearable art. Patrice is lucky that someone let this one go. A+ Bill

PAMs??? These are not PAMs, but Pre Vendome watches.
PAM is the good word to use for watches since.... 1997, not before. Best, Nicolas
Thanks for the clarification :) So...
...you're the right man to ask then... ...what the heck does "PAM" stand for anyway.... :-? How / when did Panerai watches get labeled with it? Grazie mille - always happy to learn something new about OP :)
It is a codification which started in 1997.
Before 1997, the codiification started with 5218 - then the number of the watch ( Logo: 201 / A, Marina Militare: 202 / A, Luminor Marina: 203 / A and so on... ). Since 1997, you have PAM then a number corresponding to the watch ( Luminor Marina: 1, Lumin...
