Luminor 1950 3 Days GMT Automatic Acciaio 42mm

In Context

At 42 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 300 m is a professional diving rating, far past any demand a wrist is likely to make of it.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 72 hours of reserve puts it well past a weekend — several days off the wrist and it is still going. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

PAM00535 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black dial with a stainless steel case. Beyond the time it carries a gmt.

Automatic mechanical, executed entirely by Panerai, 13¾ lignes, 7,9 mm thick, 29 jewels, Glucydur® balance, 28.800 alternations/hour. Incabloc® anti-shock device. Power reserve 3 days with indicator on the back, two barrels, seconds reset device, date, GMT indicated by the central hand. 229 components.
