Panerai occupies a unique position in the watchmaking world. Although the original "Officine" was created in 1860, the watches it produces only became available to the public in 1993. Until then, the various developments and products by the Florence-based brand were dedicated exclusively to the Italian navy, an experience that enabled Panerai to patent a number of systems and above all to test them in the most credible possible manner. Their arrival in watch stores implied its own challenges, largely due to their substantial size of its cases with their eminently military design. However, the daring bid proved successful since the brand immediately found its place on the wrists of a number of male and female stars, igniting a trend for outsized watches. Since them, Panerai has adopted a slightly more low-key approach and the model loaned to us for this test bench is a prototype of the new Radiomir 1940 42mm.

Exterior
Panerai's historical developments and patents mostly related to the case. How about today? First of all, the object of this test bench is accurately named, since it features the 1940 version of the Radiomir cushion-shaped case. That was the year that the welded wire-lugs and the cone-shaped crown were replaced by monobloc lugs and a screw-locked cylindrical crown meeting new norms.
Despite its more discreet 42mm size and its transparent sapphire crystal back, the case of this Radiomir is reliably water-resistant to 10atm. In its 2015 version, the dial displays the small seconds at 9 o'clock in addition to the hours and minutes. Otherwise, the design and the iconic construction of the Panerai dials remain the same. A first plate is coated with a luminescent material. These days Super-LumiNova replaces Radiomir (actually the name of a luminescent material patented by Panerai) while providing comparable luminescent properties. A second plate, in which the numerals and hour-markers are cut out, is laid over the first. The indications appear distinctly by day or night.
Although the design of this watch as a whole has always been guided by a purely functional vocation, it features a powerful design with a pleasingly balanced combination of curves and sharp angles.

Movement
Yesterday's military secret is now common knowledge: movements that equipped Panerai watches during the brand's navy-dedicated history were supplied by Rolex that held a virtual monopoly of the reputation for reliability. As soon as it opted to pursue civilian missions, the Italian brand naturally had to find movements. Its first "public" models were equipped with Unitas calibers - a wise choice, since their reliability and size were a perfect match for the product. But this was not an "in-house movement" and it joining the Richemont group that sealed the brand's destiny as a Manufacture.
The P.1000 caliber powering this watch stems from a fully integrated development process. It is driven by two barrels ensuring a 72-hour power reserve and its balance oscillates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, a standard frequency these days. This caliber has nothing else to prove other than its reliability and its precision, two missions it fulfills to perfection. The only "fancy touch" is the seconds-resetting when the winding stem is in the time-setting position.

The architecture and the construction of this caliber are entirely in tune with Panerai's vocation and its "military" past. Functionality and reliability are the predominant first impression. One might even at first glance consider these models as somewhat austere. But they desire a closer look. The decoration on the bridges is a daring but praiseworthy choice. Panerai has decided to finish their surface with straight-graining, an apparently simple choice that is nonetheless delicate and difficult to perform, especially by beveling the edges. While the polishing of the angles is pretty standard (and perfectly acceptable), the various surfaces are quite distinct from each other. The focus here is on consistence and common sense rather than the trend among certain Manufactures to aspire to the realm of Haute Horlogerie whatever their identity. Finally, the design of the barrel bridge and the going train centered around the fourth wheel.

Tests
It is not surprising to note that the watch exterior lives up to its promises. Functionality, robustness, water resistance and readability: all the qualities one expects from a Panerai are indeed there.
In terms of movement performances, the amplitudes are good at 0, 24 and 48 hours, respectively measured at between 255° and 295° in horizontal positions and between 235° and 275° in vertical positions. The two power-reserve measurements were also well beyond the data supplied by the manufacturer, at more than 75 hours in both instances. It is on the wrist that the Radiomir 1940 42mm reveals its key assets. Its exceptional ergonomics make it both comfortable and elegant to wear for both men and women.

Conclusion
In "going public", Panerai also sparked a number of trends and fashions. The Florence-based brand has nonetheless succeeded in preserving its identity, its values, but above all the remarkable qualities that have forged its well-deserved reputation. A tricky transition that has caused many brands to lose their way. As confirmed by this Radiomir 1940 42mm, Panerai has managed to become more widely available and to adapt to every-day life situations while safeguarding its technical assets and its unique character within the watch industry. Given its excellent price positioning, the Radiomir 1940 42mm is probably one of the finest possible responses to the difficult times watchmaking is currently going through.

The new Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Titanio - 47mm is inspired by the military roots that characterised the florentine brand. The watch has the classical 47-mm Luminor Submersible case made of brushed titanium, which has hypoallergenic properties as well as extreme corrosion resistance, toughness and lightness. Thanks to its screw-down back and crown guard lever, the case is water-resistant to 30 atmospheres (approximately 300 metres) while a unidirectional rotating bezel allows wearers time their dives.

The Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Chrono Flynback Automatic Titanio is powered by Panerai's in-house Caliber P.9000, with automatic winding, a frequency of 28,800 vph, and a power reserve of three days from two barrels. The movement also includes a system for that can reset the hour hand backwards and forwards in one-hour jumps without interfering with the running of the minute hand. The timepiece also displays a flyback chronograph function, a chronograph of which the elapsed seconds hand can be stopped, returned to zero and restarted instantly with a single push of a button.

Two versions are available: the first one features a bezel made entirely of brushed titanium (PAM00614), while the second one has a special bezel made of titanium with a matte black ceramic finish (PAM00615). Their black dials feature applied luminous hour markers and are supremely readable. The watches come on a rubber strap. Both are supplied with a spare strap, a screwdriver and a special tool for replacing it.

• A new integrated manufacture with almost all the metiers of the art of watchmaking
• 130 new jobs
• Expanded Research and Development activities: the Workshop of Ideas
• Zero carbon dioxide emissions

The new production facility will be opened at the end of 2013 and it will be at Pierre-a-Bot, on the heights above Neuchâtel. Its birth will complete the progress which in just a few years has established the Florentine brand all over the world as one of the most important productive expressions of haute horlogerie sports watches.
 

At the moment, the stages of development, manufacturing the various components, assembly and quality control are all carried out by Officine Panerai internally but they take place in different production sites. The unification of the various stages in a single location which is also significantly larger will bring several benefits to the production, to the benefit all admirers of Panerai watches: higher capacity, greater independence in all stages of production and better quality control.

The new Panerai manufacture will have an area of 10,000 square metres in which there will be 290 employees, 130 more than the 160 who are currently employed at the building in the centre of Neuchâtel, where the brand is located at the moment. In addition to the production lines, equipped with the very latest technologies, there will be space in the new manufacture for all the trades related to the prototyping, production, assembly and rigorous quality control of the components, movements and cases of Panerai watches, trades that are carried out by master watchmakers and their highly skilled colleagues.

Inside the new building there will be a large space for the Workshop of Ideas, the area where all the research and development activities which for years have been behind the innovative drive of the brand will be consolidated. Materials research, the study and design of new movements together with the continuous refinement of the quality and creativity expressed by its products are fundamental requirements of a brand which finds in its history and its military origins the need to surpass its own standards so as to meet the requirements of its demanding customers.

As has always been the case, the activities of the manufacture at Neuchâtel will carry out the completion and execution of the creative ideas of the Panerai designers who contribute to preserving one of the most distinctive elements of the brand: the combination of Italian history, design and passion with Swiss precision, craftsmanship and technical watchmaking knowledge which makes Panerai watches unique and immediately recognizable all over the world.

In the words of Angelo Bonati, CEO of Officine Panerai, "In 1997 a great adventure was begun which has been creating the foundations for the future development of the Panerai brand and for its perpetuity".

The new Officine Panerai manufacture will have zero environmental impact in terms of carbon dioxide through careful integration of technologies for the recovery and recycling of resources, devices for reducing emissions and eco-sustainable mobility policies for employees.

The "Panerai Catalogue" is organised according to the classification of Officine Panerai watches, which are subdivided into four collections: Historic, the models driven by hand-wound calibres; Contemporary, the models with automatic movements; Specialities, the watches that express the highest level of technical excellence of Panerai production; Special Editions, the limited edition timepieces, which embody the values that are deeply rooted in the history of Panerai, namely rarity, exclusivity, authenticity and simplicity. Each watch from the different collections is illustrated with images and detailed technical information.

A specific section of the Panerai Catalogue application is devoted to calibres developed in-house by Officine Panerai at its manufactory in Neuchâtel. The technical features and functions of each of the ten calibres are illustrated through images, videos and detailed information, and each one can be instantly associated with all the models it powers.

Panerai Magazine is the second application developed by Officine Panerai specifically for the iPad, following the Panerai Magazine dedicated to 2011 news and novelties. It is available in English and can be downloaded free from the link:

WORLDTEMPUS - January 20, 2011

At SIHH, Panerai continues to show many in-house calibers and exotic materials such as a black composite, and this year even debuts a watch with a case made of bronze and boasting a green dial. While this is good and exiting, Panerai is best when it integrates the brand "story," which includes historical models originating in 1930s and '40s: watches made with a purpose and with a size not dictated by fashion but by profession. In this case, Italian military divers.
One of the retro-styled products presented at SIHH 2011 is the 47-millimeter PAM372 1950 Luminor with a three-day power reserve movement from the new P.3000 manual wind collection. The hefty watch is fitted with a so-called sandwich dial, meaning a dial consisting of two layers. The "top" dial is perforated, allowing the luminous underplate to shine through.
This twin-layered dial is no novelty, but rather a construction found on the very first Panerai watches from the early years. This watch's crystal is not the usual sapphire, but made of Plexiglas to closely emulate the original. This may sound like a cheap solution to some - and, of course, it is cheaper than to a domed sapphire crystal - however this is also a feature inspired by the original wartime timepieces.
Furthermore, the Plexiglas should be appreciated for visual aesthetic reasons as it displays less distortion in relation to the perforated Arabic numerals on the sandwich dial. The use of tinted Luminova gives the watch an instant vintage look.
The vintage look is evidenced in the strap as well. The pre-worked hides used for the strap fitted to the PAM372 look like they have already seen some battle, adding yet another vintage feel to this 47-millimeter ticking storyteller, which shows off the latest caliber when one looks through the transparent sapphire crystal case back.
Reference PAM372 will be manufactured in a sizable amount of 3,000 units, which is undoubtedly good news to hard core Paneristi who not had the chance to buy into low-production special editions such as the historic pieces from the 1930s and '40s.
The PAM372 is priced around 7,000 euros depending on local VAT. This is a decent price considering the in-house movement as well as the amazing story this particular model tells.

GMT- Printemps-Ete 2010

While its shape retains the same curves as the traditional cushion-shaped Panerai case, the Radiomir Tourbillon GMT Ceramica is creating a powerful impact this year by appearing in an aesthetic interpretation that is distinctly unusual for the Italian brand.

Rather than adopting Panerai's signature pure, sleek look, this generously sized new model reveals the intricate secrets of its tourbillon movement. Instead of the usual "sandwich-style" dial, the exquisite skeletonised craftsmanship is highlighted beneath a dial composed of a slender filigree-worked structure serving to bear the luminescent hour-markers and Arabic numerals. Clothed in a high-tech coating, the gear wheels of the proprietary Calibre P. 2005 can be admired in all their splendour as they drive the small seconds, dual time-zone display and tourbillon. A new interpretation of the traditional Radiomir issued in a limited edition of just 30.
