Luminor Power Reserve PVD Re-Run

In Context

At 44 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, 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.

PAM00028 Re-Run is one of 2 executions of the PAM00028 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a black dial and a stainless steel case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2009.

The ETA 2892-A2 fitted much as supplied, in the Luminor Power Reserve. The 2892 is the thinner and more finely finished of ETA's two mainstream automatics, which is why it is the usual choice when a module — here a power-reserve display — has to sit on top without making the watch unwearably thick. Panerai used it before its own calibres arrived.

3 other watches in the library run the Panerai 2892-A2.
