70 Years Of Panerai
By Sarah Jayne Potter | 3 minute read
Famously, Italian watch house Panerai started out by supplying diving watches to the Italian Navy. It distinguished itself by introducing techniques that made its watch numerals and indexes glow, most famously with the creation of a luminous substance called Luminor, which subsequently became the name of the brand’s most popular family of timepieces. It’s this same watch family that celebrates its 70th anniversary this year, with the brand declaring 2020 ‘The Year of Luminor’.

Panerai Luminor Collections
Big and bold, the Luminor is instantly recognisable – there just isn’t another luxury Swiss brand making watches that look like this.
We say that Panerai is Luminor and that Luminor is Panerai.PANERAI’S CEO, JEAN-MARC PONTROUÉ

AISI 316L 1.4435 stainless steel is Officine Panerai’s material par excellence since it is highly resistant to corrosion and is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for contact with the skin. The Panerai watches created for the Italian Navy were made of austenitic stainless steel, a reliable material that was also resistant to the extreme environmental conditions in which the commandos operated

Unlike standard gold, Panerai Goldtech™ is made with a percentage of copper that imbues the material with a rich and intense red hue—one that is both strikingly modern and uniquely timeless. This exquisite metal also contains platinum, which prevents the material from oxidizing, thus extending the lifetime of the watch.
