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.

    There is something alluring about a full bodied metal case. This reincarnation of the original Luminor possesses a stannic like soul with its 44mm brushed steel case and bracelet strap. The bezel of polished steel, glimmers forming the perfect stage for the black dial. The face contains luminous Arabic numerals and hour markers, and in addition to this, 24-hour linear markings at the dial edge, which with the help of a dedicated central hand forming the GMT function. This function enables the wearer to read simultaneously, the local time as well that of another Timezone. Within its steel case, its OP VIII caliber beats as its aesthetic heart. It has a date slot at 3 o'clock, and a small seconds dial at 9 o'clock.

    The Luminor GMT is re-engineered version of the first waterproof watch that was created by Panerai for Italian Navy commandos during World War 2. The watch is made of AISI 316L(authenticate stainless steel), a specification of the American Iron and Steel Institute, with a chromium content of 16–18%, 11–14% nickel and 2–3% molybdenum. This fine metal is resistant to extreme environments and is skin friendly too. The case is brushed and polished and it’s bold design with the screwed tight waterproof hallmarked Panerai crown are the key differentiators. The black dial two large watch features large Arabic numeral at 6 and 12 and small 24 hour around the fringe. The central hand that makes a complete rotation in 24 hours guides the time. The watch has excellent night time visibility because of it’s gleaming hands and numbers.
