Specialist note

Accompanied by a Panerai Certificate confirming the present watch is number 8 of 60 examples and confirming production on December 18th, 1997 and a Panerai Specification Certificate dated March 4th, 1998. Further accompanied by a Panerai presentation box with key, Panerai leather envelope, and tie-tag.

Considered by many Panerai collectors to be the “grail of grails”, the PAM 21 features a platinum case and a movement made by Rolex, just as the original Panerai watches features from the 1930s through 1950s. Made in just a limited edition of 60 pieces in 1997 to commemorate the production of Panerai Radiomir watches in 1937, very few have come to market since that time.

The watch features an incredible rich brown dial and 47mm platinum case, matching the dimensions of the original vintage Radiomir watches.

Preserved in excellent condition, this is an extraordinary opportunity for someone to add to their Panerai collection or purchase their very first extraordinary Panerai.
