About the Panerai Luminor Collection
History
Night-time and underwater visibility of watch-dials were two challenges faced by the watches made in the 1940s era. Officine Panerai took up the job of crafting a watch with these unsuitable problems. These problems were taken care of in 1949 when Panerai came out with a groundbreaking solution with the Panerai Luminor collection. Panerai was successful in identifying a luminescent substance that changed the course of watch-making for generations to come. Named after this invaluable substance, the Panerai Luminor collection set a new benchmark for visibility in hostile conditions.
Features
The Panerai Luminor collection is adorned with a brilliant solution to further enhance the robustness and reliability of a watch, the lever protecting the crown. This helps in making the crown more water-tight as well as shielding it more effectively. In 1956 Officine Panerai patented the distinctive crown protection bridge that the Panerai Luminor is renowned for. Whereas, the integrated lugs provide better protection and comfort. Apart from an in-house movement, the crown protector, and the cushion-shaped case, the Luminor collection also features a small seconds window at 9 o’clock apart from the GMT, Chrono Monopulsante, Base, and Left-handed versions.
Events
On 8th December, history was made by Panerai models which managed to garner more than 1 million euros as proceeds at the ‘Panerai Only’ auction by the renowned Artcurial Auction house for Officine Panerai. Two vintage models, a Luminor and a Marina Militare were auctioned off at more than million euros significantly much higher than any initial auction estimates.

Officine Panerai developed the Luminor as a more contemporary sibling of the Radiomir, a time keeping device more at home on the field than a business meet. Luminors are easily recognizable by their lever- crown protecting device and the use of dark sombre tones as dial colors. The PAM00523 is the first watch from Panerai to purposefully introduce the combination of the Luminor 1950 case with a white dial. Its 42mm polished steel case and matching bezel house an in house automatic mechanical P.9000 calibre with a power reserve for 3 days. The transparent sapphire case back allows the movement to be admired. The white dial is spruced by the presence of black Arabic numerals with the larger 12 and 6 o’ clock numerals standing out. It has a date display at 3 o’ clock and a seconds dial at 9 o’ clock in addition to being water resistant up to 10 bar. The brushed steel crown protecting device matches the buckle of the personalized alligator strap completing the watch.
