Description
Panerai collectors know that so called Pre-Vendome watches are extremely rare, valuable and collectable. Basically, the Pre-Vendome watches are where the action is for serious Panerai collectors. Pre-Vendome means watches that were made between 1993, when Panerai wristwatches became commercially available and popular, and 1996/1997, when Panerai was acquired by the Cartier conglomerate (Vendome Group).

The Mare Nostrum is a 42mm stainless steel case two register chronograph. It was only made (as a Pre Vendome model – there are later production models too) with a black dial and a tachymetric scale bezel with the letters “Km/h”. Movement is the manual winding ETA 2801-2 fitted with a Dubois Depraz 3127 chronograph module. Panerai only produced 492 Mare Nostrum 5218-301/A watches. This is watch # 36X.

This watch is on an original Panerai Kodiak strap with pre-Vendome “bottle opener” buckle. Also included is the original blue shark skin Panerai strap and Pre Vendome style buckle. Watch is in unpolished condition and all functions work perfectly. Watch will be accompanied by its original Panerai box and screwdriver.
