These Panerai replica watches are renowned for their reliability and durability, having been utilized by Italian military divers who required timepieces capable of withstanding immense pressure and extreme depths underwater. A distinguishing feature of these replica watches are the aluminum shield surrounding the crown, a patented innovation by Panerai. Designed to endure harsh conditions, this shield prevents the crown from snagging on objects and potentially damaging the watch.
At the Watches & Wonders event in Geneva, Panerai made a significant foray into sustainability with a dual-pronged approach. Firstly, they unveiled the replica Submersible eLAB-Identification, a concept watch crafted from 98.6% recycled materials, accompanied by an open-source database of suppliers that other watchmakers can utilize to create their own recycled timepieces. Additionally, they launched the commercial version of this sustainability initiative, the recycled-based replica Panerai Luminor Marina eSteel. These were just two highlights from Panerai’s offerings at the virtual Watches & Wonders Geneva show, which also included a downsized 42mm Bronzo and a lineup of automatic steel chronographs featuring the new P.9200 automatic chronograph movement.
Continuing their exploration of chronographs in 2021, Panerai showcased their latest creations at the live Watches & Wonders event in Shanghai. While the initial models featuring the P.6200 movement were crafted from stainless steel and featured closed casebacks, the current lineup is made from Panerai’s proprietary Goldtech alloy and boasts a sapphire back, albeit partially obscured by a wave motif.
One standout piece from the collection is the Luminor Chronograph Goldtech Blu Notte, measuring a substantial 44mm in diameter. With the iconic Panerai Luminor crown protection device and robust lugs, it exudes the commanding presence characteristic of Panerai Luminor watches. Though swimming with an 18-karat gold chronograph may not be advisable, it’s worth noting that the water resistance rating of the new PAM 1111 is 50 meters, making it suitable for surface activities.
The steel versions of the new P.9200 automatic chronograph feature closed backs and are slightly thicker, providing a more robust package for those venturing into water. While the PAM 1111 comes with a deep blue alligator strap matching the dial, Panerai also offers a rubber strap for added versatility.
Notably, the rose gold used in the Blu Notte case is Panerai’s proprietary Goldtech alloy, which boasts a richer, darker hue and is resistant to fading, addressing a common concern among watchmakers working with high karat gold. With many brands developing their own alloys for enhanced color retention, Panerai’s Goldtech stands out for its durability and aesthetic appeal.
