Sly Mare Nostrum 5218-302, the same than the 304, but with the Graduate Bezel of the 5218-301/A. 32 pieces + 18 given / sold to Cartier Vendome

And Pam 6, 7 and 8: Mare Nostrum Vendome, 400 pieces, for these 3 references: 6=Blue dial, 7=White Dial, and 8=Black Dial:

My favourite?

5218-304 ( pre v smooth bezel), then the 301/A, then the Pam 7 with its white dial...I don't like the 302, as it's too close to the 301/A, and you'll pay a lot for one more line on the dial...
The 304 is the closer to the Proto from 1943, and the white dial is simply stunning.
The 301/A is the one which we come back to the legend, as it was produced at the same time than the Logo pre v...

Best.

Nicolas, I'm falling for this model Pre V...it just took me 8 years....

nice scans....I've got to learn to snap better scans. -David

I still can't fall in love with the Mare Nostrum for some reason

The Mare Nostrum is always #1 Panerai Chrono for me

 
 By: Krieng : March 8th, 2008-23:49
The dial look very balance and the patinal look real nice. Is it possible to show more Mare series? I wish to see some clear bezel and the "slytech" also. Thanks and Cheers.

Here you are, all you, Mare Lovers ( lot of pics )

301/A is my favorite, then the PAM007 white dial. Are all the straps combo of 6,7,8 original? It looks really great and nicely match! Thanks again for your post. Cheers

Nice taste, Krieng!

I like it - but I don't know why..!!!!

 
 By: Andy : March 9th, 2008-00:49
Great pics there Nicolas, but it's the least we expect now from you..!!! It doesn't seem to look like a Panerai which must give it that marmite feel with Panerai collectors....what size is it..?? Are the bezels interchangable as I've seen 3 pics recently ... 

Those starps of yours are just killing me !!! [nt]

For the non believers amongst us...

It has taken me a while to understand why I should add the 301A to my collection..I also thought it was "non" panerai because of the lack of the crownguard...The more you get into the PreV ERA the more you get to understand and capture the essence..I reca... 

I love your thought.

 
 By: Krieng : March 9th, 2008-22:16
Welcome to the forum! The 301/A is also my favorite Mare. My first thought that came up into my mind was exactly the same as yours....where's the crown guard? is this the real Panerai? But I finally found out that this is the REAL stuff and can't miss to ... 

Agreed..We r talking a genuine rare PreV here..I know

 
 By: torromoto : March 10th, 2008-16:00
it took me a while also to appreciate, but I am sooooo hooked now....Strange thing is..We all seem to think they are underappreciated..Are they? Pricewise yes allthough I don't think you'll get one for the same price as you could have 1 year ago...I don't...

Aka Mickey Rourke...LOL I'm so happy to see you here, brother! And hope to see you more and more, the house is cool, the guys are top and the barmaid is...LOL I'm also so hapy to hear that finally you've been converted to the Mare sect! Well, I saw it som... 

Obviously you didn't push me enough as it took me 3 years to buy it...Seriously

 
 By: torromoto : March 10th, 2008-10:40
This is an incredible piece..You were right..Simply stunning..I took some pics today..Not very good ones I'm afraid..Light outside is poor as it is raining today, but I simply had to show..The dial is simply amazing...Again sorry for the poor pics..Just d...
