I agree with you on the charm and the aura of Vintage Panerais. Any Paneristi can only agree with you on that.
BUT I disagree on the lack of interest about the Pre Vendôme.
Since the last vintage, the GPF 2/56, what was Panerai?
A Proto 1000 metri from the 80ies?
Ok, ok, but....
What would have been Panerai without the Pre Vendôme Era?
The Logo is the first of the " rebirth of the legend ".
Without Pre Vendôme; you wouldn't have Vendôme.
AND, if I remember well, the 21 was a Pre Vendôme Project!
As for the 202/A I can olny agree with you. One, if not THE strongest pre vendome Watch.
Best, amico.
