Luminor Automatic Montecarlo 2000 PAM 81
Panerai's Luminor Automatic Montecarlo 2000 was produced to celebrate the Laureus Regatta in Montecarlo in 2000. Sadly there are no distinguishing features that set the PAM 81 apart from the regular production Luminor Marina Automatic 40mm at the time (C-D Series only), except for "Montecarlo 2000" on the dial. For collectors, however, it would be a prized possession as only 200 were ever made.
