Catalogue Note
With a Panerai International Guarantee Card, Special Certificate, Instruction Manual and a presentation box with outer packaging.
In 2004 Panerai launched two special edition models to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Singapore retailer Sincere. The PAM207 was made in an edition of 50 stainless steel Luminor examples with blue dial and the PAM208, in a platinum Radiomir case with brown hobnail dial, in an edition of only 5. This is the first time an example from this very limited series has been offered at auction.
