Panerai Luminor Chrono Daylight Black II (PAM00250)

A typical Panerai watch that you would find in a department store at a fair price. Could not find the selection in stores that I found on this site though.

Panerai Luminor Marina Milano Boutique (PAM00428)

Well - it's beautiful and substantial. Fans of a heavier feeling watch will appreciate this Panerai Luminor Marina Milano Boutique (PAM00428). The band is highly polished so don't expect it to remain free of scratches if you wear it daily, as I do. The date window is quite small, which may be an issue for older eyes. I love the watch but I thought the packaging was excessive.

As well as providing exceptional technical performance, carbotech has an uneven, matt black appearance, which varies according the cutting of the material: the result is that each watch is truly unique. 
 

The structure of carbotech is designed to enhance both the aesthetics and the performance of the material, which is used to make the case, the rotating bezel and the lever bridge which protects the winding crown.

The dial of the new Luminor Submersible 1950 Carbotech™ is black with applied hour markers, the date window is at three o'clock and the small seconds counter adorned with Panerai blue details is at nine o'clock. The screw-in caseback is made of titanium with black treatment. The P.9000 automatic calibre beats at the heart of the watch. It is water-resistant to 300 metres. 

The new Luminor Submersible 1950 CarbotechTM is fitted with a black rubber strap, personalised for the first time by the OP logo in Panerai blue, and it is supplied with a spare strap and a screwdriver.

WORLDTEMPUS - 12 October 2011
"My bug is dismessi. She does not work, but she tries," designer Patricia Urquiola said as she explained the time machine she built for the spectacular "O'clock. time design, design time" exposition currently taking place at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan.
Show curators Silvana Annicchiarico and Jan van Rossen collected designers and artists from around the world to offer highly creative, and sometimes poetic, contributions to the exposition sponsored by Italian watch brand Officine Panerai.

Panerai CEO Angelo Bonati was thrilled about the invitation to sponsor this exhibition. "Technology and aesthetics go hand-in-hand. It is a natural marriage," he explained as the museum opened its doors for a preview just two days ago. "Design and functionality are essential for horology. The watch business benefits from design," he admitted before he said he would not waste more of our precious time, instead choosing to show the large collection of site-specific works, installations, designer items and works of art by the artists who were asked to offer a definition on measuring time, passing time and how time can be experienced.

The stars of the show are two artworks by enfant terrible Damien Hirst. He created one large "Sunflower" and smaller "Fractional Sunflower" paintings, both composed using the technique of spin painting and offering a plethora of Panerai dials with no hands.
"Mr. Hirst has been a long-time Panerai collector," Bonati revealed, obviously very proud of the presence of the famous artist whose work has been the talk of town since shocking the art world in September 2008. This was when his "Beautiful Inside My Head Forever" show sold for more than $200 million at Sotheby's.
Bonati told Worldtempus that he will not buy the Hirst paintings himself. "They are too expensive," he said with a faint smile. He did not reveal the price of the two paintings. "They are likely to be part of Mr. Hirst's private collection," Bonati explained.
However, Hirst's paintings may not be the most interesting artwork on display at the exposition, though his contribution is certain to attract the attention of both art and watch connoisseurs around the world. The happy colors and obvious presence of Panerai in the artworks goes well with the artist's own philosophical view on life and time: "We are here for a good time, not a long time," Hirst claims.

The Mare Nostrum, the most mysterious and rarest of all Panerai models, returns thanks to an exceptional re-edition that is absolutely faithful to the main characteristics of this impressive chronograph: case, measurements, dial and production processes. The result is a large watch with big historical appeal and big visual impact.
Mare Nostrum is the chronograph that Officine Panerai supplied to the Italian Navy in 1943 as standard issue for officers on deck. The ongoing historical events put an end to any possible development of this model, of which only a very few prototypes were produced - almost certainly three in total - of which first all trace and then all relative documentation was lost, following the flood that hit Florence in 1966.
Discovery by Officine Panerai of one of the prototypes, now part of the collections at the Officine Panerai Museum in Florence, enabled creation of a new Mare Nostrum an extraordinary model from a collectors' point of view, in a single edition of just 99 examples that reproduce the original right down to the smallest detail.

The Mare Nostrum - 52 mm has an impressive brushed case in three parts and measuring 52 mm in diameter, like the original. With very b lugs, it has a tonneau shape, but looks round due to the wide flat bezel with ridged edge on which, just as on the prototype, a fine circular mark stands out, perhaps due to an unfinished process or a reference mark for a subsequent scale engraving. The screw-down back plate has four grooves to assist unscrewing and this too is in brushed steel, but unlike the original, it features a sapphire crystal window through which the movement can be seen. The cylindrical winding and regulating crown, with the words Mare Nostrum engraved on its ridged edge is of the screw-down type and the pump buttons are cylindrical.
The watch is guaranteed watertight to 3 bar (about 30 metres), a depth that depended on the historical use of the Mare Nostrum. The two reasons for this were that, firstly, the model was designed for use on ships and not underwater and secondly, at that time it was virtually impossible to make the chronographic buttons on a watch totally waterproof for any length of time.
Protected by a 1.6 mm thick anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the dial has a black base and two levels. The outer, upper ring, bears small Arabic numerals, stick hour markers and round minute markers, all coated in luminescent material. The central one level, over a millimetre lower, bears the names of the brand and model and the two subsidiary dials. On the left the small seconds one, on the right the minute counter, set to 45, as was the norm in those days. The considerable gap between the two layers of the dial gives it unique depth and the chronograph hand, unlike the luminescent hour and minute hands, is blue, just like the prototype.

This new edition of the Mare Nostrum uses, like the original, a hand-wound mechanism: OP XXV calibre, deriving from a Minerva calibre that measures 16 ¾ lignes. The balance makes 18,000 alternation an hour, the same as the Angelus movement of the prototype. Fitted with a anti-shock device, the column-wheel movement can easily be seen through the window on the back plate and all the levers are polished with rounded corners.
With reference PAM00300, Mare Nostrum - 52 mm even has the same strap colour and material as the original: military green in leather-lined fabric. The buckle however is different, larger and trapezoidal in shape, like all current models by Officine Panerai.
