Some Facts about Panerai History

A Panerai wrist watch is an artful mix of Italian design and Swiss skills; Panerai has been an advanced leader in the field of professional timing implements for over 140 years.

When Mr. Guido Panerai founded the company in Florence in 1860, it was with the desire to manufacture reliable wrist and pocket watches for the Italian Royal family and rich merchants.

His early works gained vast appreciation in all European countries. In the early 1930s, Panerai set up a close friendship with the Royal Italian Fleet and began to provide the armed forces with accurate pocket watches and sights for torpedoes.

During World War II, Panerai provided the Royal Italian Navy with Radiomir watchesâ€â€firming his leadership in manufacturing precise timepieces.

In 1993, after 50 years of manufacturing watches solely for the Royal Italian Navy, Panerai Company offered their Luminor watches to the rest of the world.

The precise timepieces have been famous for their first-rate workmanship in extreme situations and dangerous environments, and eagerly collected by collectors. In 1997, the Richemont Group obtained Panerai Company and enhanced the make by manufacturing novel stuff while keeping up customary traditions of Panerai Company and boosting its international acknowledgement.

Panerai Replica Watches Collections
Panerai’s booming watches are based on the Radiomir and Luminor technology, and all of them exist in the 3 main Panerai collections: Historical, Contemporary and Special Editions.

In the Historical Collection, Panerai has improved the Luminor 44mm watch with an enhanced hand-wound mechanical movement. Guaranteed water-tight up to 300 meters but tested up to 400 meters, this unique wrist watch has either steel or titanium casing besides a translucent caseback to allow seeing of the movement.

Panerai Company has added some options to its Contemporary Collection. The Panerai Radiomir watch, practical and stylish, is now presented in 2 sizes: 40mm and 42mm. Equipped with an automatic mechanical GMT/Alarm movement, the watch is now presented in premium polished stainless steel.

The Luminor Power Reserve watch is also new to the Contemporary Collection. Available in 2 sizes in either steel or titanium, this watch presents a power reserve of 42 hours. It has the exclusive OP1X caliber 21-jewel movement by Panerai Co., and is COSC certified.

The Luminor Marina Gold watch is a new model too â€â€made of 18-karat gold with a slight pink hueâ€â€the first Panerai Luminor to have a gold casing. Consisting of a single block of bullion, the casing is 44mm in diameter, is COSC certified and is manufactured in a restricted issue of 150 pieces.

In its Special Editions Collection, Panerai has added the Luminor Marina 1950 watch-a wonderful 47mm wrist watch that honors the first of its type produced in 1950. Perfectly readable beneath the water, the watch resembles its earlier model with a face consisting of 2 superimposed layers and a bridge device. The COSC-certified chronometer watch presents a power reserve of 56 hours and is cased in high quality stainless steel. It will be produced in 1,950 pieces over a 2 year while.

The Special Editions Collection features the exceptional Luminor Blackseal watch that connects the past, the present and the future.The watch has a polished steel case that is ornamented with an engraving of 2 Italian frogmen in action on their human torpedoâ€â€a picture that also is presented on the face of the timepiece. The ornament is made exclusively by hand by Panerai’s proficient artisans.

But original Panerai watches are very expensive, so not every person can afford to buy them. They have to resort to purchasing cheaper analogs called replica watches. We provide such pleasant possibility to get premium replica watches equipped with high quality Japanese movements produced by the best well-known and famous watch manufacturers. Our replicas are virtually indistinguishable from the real Swiss-made watches because smart Japanese watch producers employ the best technologies and approaches to the production of the most essential accessories both for men and women.
