Panerai Final Piece of 2021 Collection

Key Points from the Discussion

• The limited availability of the PAM 2020, allocated through boutiques, sparked debate among collectors about whether it truly embodies the 'brotherhood' spirit of Paneristi, with some feeling it created an 'elite within the brotherhood'.
• While acknowledging the exclusivity, some contributors believe the project's creators, Panerai and Paneristi, likely had valid reasons for their approach to distribution, suggesting it was a well-considered decision.
• A key design discussion point revolved around the case size, with some collectors preferring a 47mm case for the PAM 2020 to align more closely with Panerai's historical DNA, while others found the 45mm more appealing.
• The choice of a 45mm case for the PAM 2020 was likely a strategic decision to keep the price more accessible and broaden its reach to a larger segment of the collecting community.
• Previous Paneristi anniversary editions, such as the PAM 195, 360, and 634, were typically 44mm Bettarini cases, providing historical context for the PAM 2020's dimensions.
