Nothing marks the start of a new year than with a new watch. Clear a space in your collection for an all new Panerai that pays homage to its historical roots.
Never mind “new year, new me.” It’s the year of “new year, new watch,” and Panerai have you covered with a new Luminor Tre Giorni – and for those who favour code, it’s the PAM01628. And as a tribute goes, this modern-day offering is designed to reflect the archival spirit of Panerai’s functional designs.
From calf-leather to case size, this hardy model takes cues from Panerai’s rich Italian military history. Think Italian commandos embarking on intense underwater missions, where the reliability of a watch becomes an essential assistant. As such, you can expect clarity throughout, even down to the patina case, that reveals a matt look reducing glare.
The beauty falls in the details, from the duality of brushed steel and patina finishing, and a movement that comforts with a three-day power reserve. Robust in function (amped up by not one but two barrels of power), the heart of the watch is revealed through an open caseback.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Panerai without the priority of a good lume, particularly when exploring the depths of the unknown. Which is why you can expect Super-LumiNova indicators, sandwiched into a dial of three parts.
“At Panerai, our mission is to honour our rich heritage while driving forward with modern innovation. The Luminor Tre Giorni is crafted to pay tribute to the historical elements of our early watches, capturing their distinctive aesthetics and practical functionality. This timepiece embodies our ongoing commitment to blending tradition with cutting-edge watchmaking,” says Jean-Marc Pontroué, CEO of Panerai.
Emblematic of vintage tropes, design references nod to the 1960s, where bold silhouettes and maximalism by shape took centre stage. Clean and utilitarian, call it purist watchmaking at its finest.
