SIHH 2013…
Funny, last year a photo of this exact piece was snapped and leaked out — although there was no announcement from Panerai — it was clearly a prototype, and now in 2013 here it is. Cool piece!
Panerai Tourbillon GMT Ceramic Pocket Watch (PAM 446)
59mm black ceramic case, skeltonized hand-wound Panerai P.2005/S caliber (power reserve 6 days, 277 parts), comes on black ceramic chain

Nice closeups and a special look at the caliber P.2005/s, below.

SIHH 2013…Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Power Reserve Automatic BRONZO…aka PAM 507. Guess the power of bronze was too much to resist for Panerai. The PAM 382 Bronzo (announced 2011) is the piece you want, IMHO.

SIHH 2013…Panerai 2013 here we go….I’ll start with the Special Editions, first the new ceramic PAM 508, in the Luminor Submersible line:
2013 Panerai PAM 508 Luminor Sub Ceramic Automatic

47mm black ceramic case, automatic Panerai P.9000 caliber, power reserve 3 days (2 barrels),
Strap is a nice looking distressed black leather with black titanium buckle (comes with a second interchangeable strap)

Perpetuelle Takeaways: first, the somewhat controversial move by Panerai to introduce the Bronze PAM 507. This depends on who you ask, of course. But to be fair, there were indications that Panerai would not produce another Bronzo — CEO Bonati was noted in a September 2011 New York Times article as saying “the company had no plans to do more bronze watches” (scroll to very bottom). But of course, a huge commercial hit the 382 was, and bronze became very sought after metal, and so… “plans change” it is fair to say. That’s fine, perfectly acceptable in my book — you adapt to what the customers want. But at least follow the big hit with something more creative. The PAM 507 is really not that exciting — from the dial, all Panerai did was tack on a power reserve display to the PAM 382.
Beyond this, there was plenty of excitement to be found in the Panerai 2013 offering. There are three new Submersible models, including a Ceramic Submersible and a 2500m titanium Submersible; and new in-house chronograph calibre P.9100. As well, we have the nicely sized PAM 512 and the Flyback PAM524, and I also like the look of the new Regatta timer PAM 526. Feel free to share your thoughts below.

SIHH 2013 Preview…

If you think you’ve seen this watch before, you are right. Well, 99% right. Just over two months ago, Panerai released the Panerai Luminor 1950 Rattrapante 8 Days (PAM 427) Special Edition in concert with its sponsorship of the Transat Classique Regatta. The watch you see here, reference PAM 530, is the same watch except it is not a special edition and does not have a specially engraved caseback. Not that I am complaining — this is a great looking Panerai. More look, specs and pricing below.

First look…
Well, it has been a good week Perpetuelle readers as we again deliver you another first look at a new trio. Now that AP fans have their ROO Schumi, these three pieces are for the Paneristi. The Panerai Radiomir 10 Days GMT in precious metal cases – Platinum (PAM 495),White Gold (PAM 496) & Red Gold (PAM 497). Though the ink is barely dry on the new Panerai Composite models (PAM 504 and PAM 505) we showed a few days ago, these new Radiomirs give you something else to consider for your 2013 wish list. Now what you should see is most interesting about these new models is are the dials: sandwich dials, but with applied hour numerals. This is certainly uncommon for Panerai — can you name another Panerai with such a dial composition? Full breakdown, below.

Available December 2012

Late last month some crude pics of two new Panerai Radiomir Composite models popped up on Paneristi. Subsequent discussion revealed the watches to be the Radiomir Composite 47mm aka PAM 504 and the Radiomir Composite Black Seal 45mm aka PAM 505, but additional details were non-existent. Until now! If there is one thing to be said, it is that these new pieces are good news for all the “composite” fans. I’ll take you through an official first look at the Radiomir PAM 504 and Radiomir Black Seal 505, below.

2013 preview…Panerai just announced the Luminor Submersible 1950 Amagnetic 3 Days Automatic Titanio (PAM 389). The Panerai PAM 389 has the classic Luminor Submersible design, with a 47mm titanium case and Panerai’s in-house P.9000 calibre. There are two notable and distinguishing features on the PAM 389: 1) its “amagnetic” properties and 2) its titanium bezel with a ceramic insert.
The ceramic disc set into the bezel is a feature which is completely new in Panerai watches.
But did you know that the Submersible Amagnetic is not the first of its kind from Panerai? Indeed, this is actually the second antimagnetic Panerai, the first being the Arktos Amagetic PAM92 issued in 2004 (LE of 500 pieces) and worn by explorer Mike Horn during one of his Artic expeditions (pictured below).
This watch will makes its official debut in 2013 at the SIHH show in Geneva, but of course Perpetuelle is here bringing you a first look. An exciting watch, with Panerai in-house caliber, high performance materials, and a great looking and classic design. Lots of great pics, below!
