Combination of Titanium And Carbon Fiber - Panerai PAM1662 Grey Watch

The Panerai Luminor Marina PAM01662 watch uses a combination of two materials-direct metal laser sintered titanium and Carbotech carbon fiber. The different materials are mixed and matched on the watch to transform it into another refreshing feeling. The titanium metal used in PAM01662 is different from the titanium metal in our impression. The DMLS technology it uses is to sinter the titanium metal powder into a titanium metal layer with a thickness of only 0.03mm, and then stack the titanium metal thin layers layer by layer. Until the case parts of Luminor are shaped, the titanium watch made in this way is more corrosion resistant and lighter in weight. In addition, sandblasting is applied to the surface of the case to make the watch no matter what to watch. It looks more special and more textured than ordinary titanium watches.

The smoky gray dial of Panerai Luminor Marina replica PAM1662 is a relatively rare monochromatic color scheme of Panerai. The case is designed to be lightweight. The titanium case combines the carbon fiber bezel, crown and bridge protection lever, which is very light to wear. The 44mm diameter may be due to the black carbon fiber bezel. It looks a little smaller, and it should be a size that can be managed by Asians. The bottom cover is also made of black DLC titanium, taking into account the change in color. Moreover, because titanium is very skin-friendly, it also reduces the possibility of metal allergy to the part that is close to the wrist.

The case is made of extremely sturdy titanium material, the case body is polished clean and delicate, and the lines are smooth, giving people a very MAN feel. The black bezel is made of a unique composite material Carbotech carbon fiber material, which is made by overlapping carbon fiber thin layers at 7 layers per millimeter, arranged alternately in orientation, and bonded under high temperature and high pressure. In addition to being light, it has excellent properties. The compression resistance and corrosion resistance. The matt black surface is rich in texture and the texture is also very beautiful, and each carbon fiber bezel exhibits a different texture due to the different cutting methods, becoming a unique existence.

The smoky gray dial layout is very exquisite, and there is no graininess that can be seen through the zoom lens. The 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions are decorated with the Panerai brand logo and the watch series. The calendar dial is set at 3 o'clock and the small seconds dial is set at 9 o'clock. The two are symmetrically distributed on the dial, highlighting the beauty of harmony. , The overall atmosphere and without losing the elegant viewing beauty. The scales at 6, 9, and 12 o'clock are Arabic numerals, and the others are spike-shaped scales. The sword-shaped pointer is placed in the center. All hour scales and pointers are covered with gray Super-LumiNova luminous coating, even in poor lighting conditions. Under conditions, the wearer can also read the time clearly and intuitively. We can also see that the luminous filling of VS Panerai 1662 is uniform and full without any overflow. The font of the calendar has also been reprinted and is very neat, and the numbers are not large and small.

The design of the dense bottom greatly improves the water resistance of the whole watch, which can well protect the normal operation of the internal movement. Taking into account the issue of skin-friendliness, the bottom cover is also made of titanium, but Panerai did not forget to plate the bottom cover with black DLC to make the front and back of the watch completely black. The pattern lettering on the bottom cover is all carefully processed by VS, the thickness is fine and there is no flaw.
