In Context
At 42 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.
The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.
PAM00218 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black dial with a platinum case. It was a limited edition.
