The Watch
In the early 1990s, Panerai introduced a watch that marked a new chapter for the Italian-founded brand. Panerai watches were to be made available to the general public for the first time in the history of the company. What model did Panerai break into the commercial market with? You guessed it – the Luminor.
.
The Luminor Due PAM 728 features the beloved luminous Panerai dial in the brand’s signature Arabic numerals, this Dial is a glorious Blue with sunburst finish, which we love.
A subsidiary running seconds register at 9 o’clock, which cracks back to 0 when you set the hands for time setting precision. Powered by the Panerai P1000 3 day movement, this movement is proudly on display through an exhibition case back. The Case is 42mm in size and is crafted in wonderful lightweight Titanium, which makes for a beautiful daily wearer.

Accompanied by Original Inner and Outer Boxes (even the Cardboard Box it was delivered in), Original Strap with Buckle, Booklets and Hang Tag.
