In order to meet the changing needs of consumers, the design of this watch is lighter, and the wearing comfort and durability have been significantly improved. The PAM01526 watch is not only an important milestone in the development of our brand, but also a subtle fusion of Panerai’s historical heritage and the superb watchmaking technology of the Neuchâtel watch factory. "For the first time, the brand has applied the lightweight and durable Carbotech™ carbon fiber material to the 40mm size watch of the Luminor series. The manufacturing process of Carbotech™ is to compress carbon fiber sheets in a precise temperature and high-pressure environment, while adding high The technical polymer PEEK (polyetheretherketone) effectively improves its strength and service life. This material has excellent mechanical properties and strength-to-weight ratio, and is also highly wear-resistant, resistant to external forces and corrosion. The performance is also excellent. Carbotech™ carbon fiber material is 80% lighter than stainless steel, 73% lighter than ceramic, and 64% lighter than titanium. Its appearance is matte black and will show subtle changes depending on how the material is cut. Changes, so the appearance and texture of each watch are different, showing individual charm.

The Panerai Luminor Quaranta Carbotech PAM01526 watch uses a matte green sandwich dial, which is chic and sporty, and is in line with Panerai watch enthusiasts’ preference for this color. The dial and hands are coated with white Super-LumiNova®X1 coating, which emits green light in the dark, ensuring that the watch remains clear and easy to read in low-light environments. The new work is equipped with the P.900 self-winding movement, which is known for its reliability and has a 3-day power reserve. The movement has a diameter of 12½ lignes (28 mm) and a thickness of only 4.2 mm, making it one of Panerai’s slimmest automatic movements. Its abundant power is provided by a bidirectional oscillating weight and stored in a single barrel. The balance wheel is firmly fixed with a splint and vibrates at a frequency of 28,800 times per hour. The movement has a stop-seconds function, making time setting more accurate. The transparent sapphire glass and DLC-coated titanium case back allow for a clear view of the mechanical mysteries of the P.900 movement. It is worth mentioning that the total weight of this watch is less than 100 grams, which is light and comfortable, suitable for daily wear.

2024 America's Cup Watch - Panerai Submersible GMT Luna Rossa Titanio PAM01507

The Panerai Submersible GMT Luna Rossa Titanio PAM01507 celebrates the 37th America's Cup, which will be held in Barcelona from August to October 2024. Let's first look at the ocean-related performance. The PAM01507 is water-resistant to a depth of 50 bar (about 500 meters) and uses Super-LumiNova® X2 luminous coating for the first time. The coating is applied to the hands and hour markers, which makes the new watch 10% brighter than the previous generation of luminous coating after being placed in the dark for 180 minutes.

Titanium case is also one of the materials used in the hull construction of the Luna Rossa PradaPirelli sailing team. It combines durability and cutting-edge technology. It is 40% lighter and 60% harder than stainless steel, demonstrating the spirit of innovation. Closely related to sailing is the shape of the GMT hand - the sail, whose design is inspired by the main sail of the Luna Rossa hull, and cleverly echoes the blue sunburst pattern dial and inner ring flange.

In the timepieces exhibited this time, in addition to the titanium case, the innovative material Ti-Ceramitech™ is also used, which is a high-density ceramic layer converted from the surface of titanium alloy. In recent years, as the speed of ships has become faster and faster, the forces acting on the sailboat and other parts of the hull have also increased, and the overall friction has increased by 30% compared to before. In order to better solve this problem, researchers from the Luna Rossa sailing team began to look for materials that are not easy to produce friction. After many failures, they accidentally discovered a specially treated ceramic material that successfully reduced the friction to less than 10%.


The inspiration for Ti-Ceramitech™ comes from this. After 7 years of research and development, Panerai has created a blue material that symbolizes the ocean through plasma electrolytic oxidation technology. It is 44% lighter than steel and ensures that the crack resistance is 10 times higher than traditional ceramics. Today, this material is used in the new Panerai Submersible series 44mm Luna Rossa Ti-Ceramitech™ automatic winding watch PAM1466 and PAM1543.
