Vendôme Special Editions 2001
Allegedly made as a special order of two pieces, I have already met somebody who claims to have handled at least three of these watches. The movement is a GP Tourbillon Sous Trois Ponts D'Or.

PAM 78 Radiomir Seconds Counter
The Seconds Counter uses a NOS Omega chronostop movement which, er, counts seconds controled by a pusher a 2. It has a date window at 3.

D:75 | 42mm white gold Radiomir, sapphire crystal display back. | Black | Omega 920, 1970s |
PAM 79 Radiomir Chrono Foudroyante
The Foudroyante was due to be quite an uncommon complication, and it is uncommon that a special edition Radiomir be made of steel.
The plan was for a watch that displayed hours, minutes and seconds, with a split-second chronograph having a counter at 9 rotating once per second.
This watch suffered severe delays due to technical problems, and eventually in late 2002 it was announced that the watch would never be produced.

| D:250 | 42mm steel Radiomir, sapphire crystal display back. | Black | Jaquet 8952 |
The Independent displays "dead beat" seconds, i.e. the second hand advances once per second, as on a quartz watch. Some topsy-turvy technical cachet there.

PAM 92 Luminor Amagnetic
PAM 107 Luminor Marina Regatta 2001
Following up from last year's Monte Carlo, this watch celebrates the same event, by reproducing the 44mm automatic model but with a black face and some engraving on the case back. It also says "Regatta 2001" on the dial. It has the regular displays for an automatic Luminor of hours, minutes, small seconds at 9, date at 3. The PAM 104 launched in 2002 is a very close relative, only lacking the wording on the dial.
