Radiomir 8 Days Platinum

In Context

At 45 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 open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 192 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.

PAM00198 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a brown dial with a platinum case. Introduced in 2004.

Hand-wound movement with 8 days power reserve (indicator on the back) based on JLC movement.
