Panerai Joins The America’s Cup With Five Limited Editions Black Dial Leather Strap Watches For Sale

The America’s Cup has to be the most exciting and challenging nautical event. This year it celebrates its 35th anniversary and does so with Panerai. This year’s event also means the introduction of the new America’s Cup Class foiling catamarans, which will reach speeds over 90 km/h, making this the Formula 1 of the seas. Only the world’s best sailors participate, and for this, they need a rugged watch to withstand this highly demanding and competitive environment.

The Luminor Marina 1950 3 Days Automatic certainly fits the bill. For this special occasion, Panerai fitted the 300 pieces limited edition of this model with a red seconds hand, as well as a strap with blue and red stitching, the official colors of the America’s Cup. The watch is still powered by Panerai’s manufacture caliber P9000, but this is now hiding behind a solid steel caseback engraved with the logo of the famous cup.

Next, to being the official partner of the America’s Cup does Panerai also sponsor two contestants. The first is ORACLE TEAM USA, the two-time winners of the cup, for which Panerai made three limited editions. The first is based on the Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic in black ceramic, now adorned in official America’s Cup colors and with a special engraving of the ORACLE TEAM USA boat on the back. Most interesting is that Panerai also equipped the watch with a nautical Tachymeter scale, allowing you to measure your speed on the water.

The next watch Panerai replica watches UK made for ORACLE TEAM USA features a very nautical complication, that of the regatta timer. This allows team members to keep track of the countdown to the start of the race, which is crucial because they pass the starting line at speed, but can only do so without being penalized after the start signal has been given. Time is therefore of the essence, making the Luminor 1950 Regatta 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic a great companion for the race, especially when crafted from titanium, as Panerai did for this limited edition.

Last of the limited editions for ORACLE TEAM USA Panerai watches are the Luminor Marina ORACLE TEAM USA 8 Days in steel, which also features color details referring to the cup colors, as well as an engraved case back. Just as the other two watches, it also has a strap with the Cup’s logo in it, as well as matching stitching.
Panerai also sponsors the SoftBank Team Japan. A memorable occasion, because Japan is competing once again in the America’s Cup for the first time in 15 years. This team’s watch is the same as the official watch of the America’s Cup, yet with a strap in different colors and an engraving of the competing boat on the case back. With these limited editions, Panerai sets the stage of what is most likely going to be a very exciting edition of the America’s Cup.

Panerai Radiomir 1940 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso Replica Watches For Sale

This week at Watches & Wonders, Panerai replica watches have announced a considerable update to their Radiomir 1940 line-up. Alongside new 42 mm models featuring 3 Day movements, the brand has also launched the brand new Panerai 1940 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso. Featuring a sort of greatest hits of Panerai styling, this new 1940 offers the classy appeal of a Radiomir mixed with the confident presence of the Luminor and a healthy injection of useful complications.

With a 45 mm red gold case and your choice of either a brown (PAM624) or black (PAM625) “sun brushed” dial, the 1940 10 Days GMT looks stunning. The 1940 case is really a mix of the Radiomir and Luminor cases and it offers a masculine, but classic, appeal that works well even in larger proportions and various case metals.
As lovely as new Panerai GMT fake watches may look, the real magic is in the movement. The P.2003/10 calibre ticks at 4Hz, uses 25 jewels and thanks to three barrels, can offer a power reserve of 10 days (240 hours). The movement, which is essentially a fully skeletonized version of Panerai’s P.2003, can be viewed via the display case back. Indeed, while the P.2003 has been seen in similar pieces like the 44 mm Luminor 1950 10 Days GMT Automatic, the additional effort of skeletonization seems fitting for a somewhat more dressy piece like this Radiomir.

This feature-packed movement offers not only time, date, a second timezone, a 24 hour indication, linear power reserve and date display, but also manages a rather elegant interface. In the format of a true GMT, the local hour hand can be jump set independently, forward and backward, from the standard timekeeping and the date will also update to reflect the progression or regression of local time.

Additionally, the seconds display is automatically set to 0 when hacking the movement, allowing for a simple method of syncing the watch with an accurate reference time.
As with other Panerai GMT models, the GMT hand can be neatly tucked behind the local hours hand for a simplified look when the feature is not needed. Despite its rather complex nature, Panerai manages to integrate all of these complications into a legible and compelling package.

Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 “California dial” Limited Edition Watches

Love them or hate them, one thing that you cannot do with Panerai is ignore them. Panerai has once again made waves at Watches & Wonders 2015 with their latest special edition watches. I’m of course referring to the new Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 “California dial” replica watches, and also its twisted sister, the PAM617.
But we thought that it would be useful to expand on these watches now that we have had some hands-on time and also a couple of days to ruminate on them. Today, we shall begin with what is probably the more controversial of the two, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629.

The PAM629 uses Panerai’s tried and tested Luminor 1950 case which is 47mm wide. This makes the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 a large watch. While it may large, the lugs do curve quite pronouncedly, so it’s not uncomfortable to wear even if you have smaller wrists. And because it is rendered in titanium, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 also feels remarkably light. The sheer weight of this watch messes with your mind.

You are expecting a hefty piece, and yet when you pick it up and put it on, it feels like a much smaller watch. The DLC coating helps make the case more resistant to scratches and wear, and it is a first for Panerai in the sense that their DLC pieces have traditionally used steel cases.
Moving on, what’s really controversial about the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 is its dial. Yes, it has what is known as a California dial. This dial design, which consists of half Roman numerals and half Arabic numerals, is special to Panerai because it was used on the Panerai reference 3646, one of the very first Rolex-made Panerais. It is a very unique design to be sure, and up until the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629, the California dial has only appeared on Panerai’s cushion case Radiomir watches. And it is for this reason that Panerai traditionalists are crying foul.

But these curmudgeons aside, the neutrals will once again point towards Panerai’s relunctance to adapt and conjure up something that is truly new. The new Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 is surely iterative rather than revolutionary, but that’s what Panerai does best. Besides, I thought last year’s Radiomir 1940 chronographs were pretty refreshing. I digress… so back to the PAM627. Well, the fact that it is the first Luminor watch to wear a California dial should surely mean something in the annals of Panerai’s history and will thusly ensure this model’s success. Furthermore, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 is limited to just 300 pieces and its intended target audience will certainly not mind that the PAM629 is not historically correct.
In fact, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Titanio DLC PAM629 is dripping with cool. The dark, black case coupled with the equally black dial contrasts perfectly with the faux vintage markings and gold hands. The case is rendered in typical Panerai quality, which is to say it’s really good. The lines are sharp and the uniform matte finish seems to almost suck up light, which makes the gold hands stand out even more sharply. The supplied Ponte Vecchio calf strap also screams quality, though I suspect some users would be miffed that it tapers down to just 22mm. I personally prefer a uniform 26mm strap on my 47mm Luminor 1950 copy watches.

Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Acciaio Blue Second Hand Replica Watches

In the span of just two decades, Panerai has risen to become one of the most popular watch brands in the world and also a bona fide manufacture. Today, we are going to take a look at one of their more unconventional watches, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Acciaio watch. The Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Acciaio replica watches, also known more simply as the PAM 524, is a great choice for lovers of Panerai’s iconic Luminor case that want something a little more special to stand out. As its name clearly states, the PAM 524 is a chronograph with a flyback complication, and I love how Panerai has integrated these functions into the watch.

For readers not familiar with a flyback function, it lets the wearer reset and start the chronograph mechanism without first stopping and then reseting and then starting it again. Pushing the flyback button is enough to reset the chronograph to zero and after which the chronograph seconds hand will immediately resume timing without any interruption. This is especially useful for timing quick continuous events like lap times.
First things first, the case is based on Panerai’s very popular 44mm 1950 Luminor case. Thanks to its bold cushion shape design and its instantly recognizable crown-protecting device, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Acciaio PAM 524 is big, chunky, brash, and has tremendous wrist presence. If you’re looking for a discreet timepiece, best look elsewhere.

Despite its chunkiness, the PAM 524 actually wears quite well on the wrist, thanks to the long, curved lugs and comfortable strap. That said, it’s a bit top-heavy, and the thickness is something that owners will need to get used to, otherwise they will be banging the watch into all sorts of things. The case is also well constructed with sharp lines and different finishing on the surfaces. The bezel is mirror-polished, while other parts of the case are brushed.
The first thing that strikes you is the bright blue chronograph seconds hand Panerai replica watches. It also lets other Paneristis know immediately that your Panerai is a little special. And unlike other Panerai watches, the Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Acciaio PAM 524 has markers for the individual minutes, which is necessary for the chronograph function. The individual minute markers, as well as the larger hour markers, and hours, minutes and running seconds hands are all rendered in matching ecru, which gives the dial a warm and vintage look and feel. Even the date is printed in the same ecru color, which is a nice and thoughtful touch.
