{*PCTeam*} SIHH2017 - Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Bronzo – PAM00671

[mysterio]

THE DECISIVE CHARACTER OF BRONZE MEETS THE BLUE OF THE SEA IN THE LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1950, BRINGING ABOUT A COMPLETELY NEW COMBINATION OF GREAT APPEAL.

The new Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Bronzo renews Panerai’s tradition of creating iconic underwater watches with unique and distinctive characteristics, with excellent technical features and a strong historical inspiration. A few years after the original launch of the watch, when this fascinating ancient material, always associated with the sea, was first brought onto the international stage of high-quality watchmaking, Panerai presents a new watch with a bronze case, combined for the first time with a blue dial.

The bronze used to make the case (47 mm in diameter) and the classic bridge device protecting the winding crown is an alloy of copper and pure tin, which is highly resistant to the corrosive action of sea water and atmospheric agents. As well as being structurally very strong, this material preserves its warm original tones, while acquiring an agreeably worn look from the characteristic patina which forms over time. This patina is the result of the reaction of bronze with external agents and it has no effect on the intrinsic properties of the material, but it is a visual sign of the ageing process, making every example unique and different from the rest.
Also made of bronze is the rotating bezel with a graduated scale for calculating the time of immersion, connected to the case by a special system designed and patented by Officine Panerai to ensure the maximum precision of the clicks. In the centre of the back is a sapphire glass porthole through which the P.9010 automatic calibre, with a power reserve of three days can be admired. Completely developed and produced in the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel, the movement is only 6 mm thick and it has very useful functions including the date (at 3 o’clock), the small seconds counter (at 9 o’clock), the device for stopping the balance wheel so as to synchronise the watch with a reference time signal, and the mechanism for rapidly adjusting the hour hand, which can be moved forwards or backwards in one-hour jumps without interfering with the running of the watch.

The new Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Bronzo (PAM00671) is water-resistant to 30 bar (300 metres) and it is completed by a brown leather strap with sewing of a nautical character and a titanium buckle. It is a Special Edition limited to 1,000 units.

- MOVEMENT Automatic mechanical, P.9010 calibre, executed entirely by Panerai.
- FUNCTIONS Hours, minutes, small seconds, date, calculation of immersion time.
- CASE 47 mm, brushed bronze. DIAL Blue with applied luminous hour markers. Date at 3 o’clock, seconds at 9 o’clock.
- POWER RESERVE 72H.
- WATER-RESISTANCE 30 bar (~300 metres)

Well, the lack of any power reserve indicator on the dial does make for a cleaner looking watch. Maybe on their next release, like what they did to the 382 and the subsequent 507.

Vamos manter a discuss?o em ingl?s, vamos? Obrigado (Let's keep the discussion in English shall we? Thanks.)

As it has just been announced, I doubt that OP has a sample that has patinated. Plus as voiced by some, green patina on a blue-dialed bronze watch may not match well together.

There are some models from Ancon Watches that are made of bronze with blue dial. With some parina they became very beautiful. Also, not every patina need to be green if someone don't like it this way.
I believe it's a matter of taste.

I'm sure the Bronzo/Bluzo will get that distinction. The PAM382 had its time. Let the new guys have their 15 minutes in the spotlight.

I think I would keep this watch clean from patina. The blue dial unfortunately doesn't seem to work that well (for me) with a greenish patina on the case.

If you want a blue patina you will need to create a fuming box that is airtight and you can suspend your watch in. Add paper towel pour in ammonia (clear) and then some aquarium salt or for you gourmets some Himalayan pink salt rub or spray it on the watch ;-)

Close it up tight with your watch suspended. Things will start changing quickly, depending on your mixture. Sometimes it will go black before blue, sometimes a brilliant blue straight from the start. Your salt concentration will affect the results you get greatly. You can flake off the rougher patina and repeat a piece.
To keep patina off use petroleum jelly for small spots.

I'm sure somebody in internet land has done this more than me' Good Luck!
