About this watch.

The PAM 5218-201/A is the so-called Pre-Vendome logo model. Although a tough sell when available from new, it has risen to be one of the holy grails for many Panerai collectors. It is estimated that a little under 700 were produced in this configuration, with an additional 200 being reworked into Slytech models.
