About the Panerai Radiomir Collection
History
Panerai Radiomir collection is widely touted to have the richest history and is the signature collection of Panerai. Made in a collaboration with the Italian Royal Navy’s Lieutenant Commander Carlo Ronconi, the Panerai Radiomir was documented in a patent filed in 1916. It wasn’t until 1936 that the first Radiomir was born.
Design & Features
The styling of the case carries an authentic vintage aura with its curved and rounded appearance. Unlike the Luminor models that sport a patented crown protecting device, the Panerai Radiomir watches contain wire lugs, a unique design that connects the straps to the case. With hand-wound mechanical or automatic mechanical movements topped with an anti-reflective, scratch-proof Sapphire Crystal, the Panerai Radiomir collection is available in various dial sizes ranging from 42mm to 48mm. In a few timepieces under the collection, the small second's feature is studded at the 9 o’clock marker.
Events
An unimaginable 1 million euros were made as proceeds and two world records broken by individual vintage Panerai models on 8th December 2014 in the ‘Panerai only’ auction organized by the well-known Artcurial auction house for Officine Panerai. The Panerai models that broke all records were the extremely rare ‘Radiomir Egiziano’, a diver’s watch made in the year 1956 for the Egyptian Navy and a Special Edition Radiomir PAM00021, crafted in platinum in 1997 with a case design similar to the Panerai models made for the Royal Italian Navy in 1938.

The PAM00183 Radiomir Black Seal, like other Panerai watches, is deeply entrenched in the history of the Italian Royal Navy. In the 1930’s, the Gamma group, specialists in the Italian Navy carried out maneuvers mounted on human torpedoes, also known as “black seals”. Deriving its name from that time, this watch, particularly commemorates that 1940’s style with a more contemporary steely look. The watch face makes use of an interesting dial setup, where two plates, a black upper plate with bored numerals and hour markers, and a lower plate with a thin coat of the Trademarked LumiNova form an extremely legible design, allowing the dial to be read even in poorly lit conditions. The Arabic numerals at 3, 6 and 12 o'clock, and a small seconds at 9 o'clock lend to its distinct look. The in-house OP XI caliber is housed in a 45m AISI 316L polished steel case with wire loop strap attachments and a beautiful conical crown.
