PAM 384 Panerai Radiomir 8 Days Ceramic 45mm

The Combination of P.2002/3 In-house Movement and High-tech Ceramic


In the newly introduced Radiomir 8 Days Ceramic 45 mm watch, Panerai skillfully combines the high-tech ceramic material and P.2002/3 manual winding movement, which is entirely developed by Panerai Neuchâtel watch factory.

Ceramic material has an unique appearance and excellent hardness, it is resistant to scratch, corrosion and high temperature. In recent years, ceramic has become one of the preferred materials in advanced watch-making industry.

The ceramic case of this Panerai Radiomir 8 Days watch is made of ZrO2, this material is the raw material powder produced by compression molding process, so the appearance is very uniform and smooth.


Panerai P.2002/3 manual winding movement not only has 8-day power reserve, but also has three hairspring boxes, the dial is even set with a linear power reserve indicator. In addition to the date function at 3 o'clock, there is a special device, which enables the wearer individually adjust the hour hand directly without adjusting the minute hand.

Radiomir 8 Days Ceramic 45mm is whole black in appearance, whether the cushion-shaped ceramic case, the iconic Sandwich Dial, or the buffalo leather strap that was coupled with DLC coated titanium buckle, they are all in black.

The case back design is cotton with the whole appearance, through the sapphire crystal glass window, fine details of the movement are all presented before your eyes. All the iconic elements on the dial, including large Arabic numbers, stick hours markers, hands, small seconds counter at 9 o'clock position, date window and linear power reserve indicator, they are all covered with a layer of special light brown Super-LumiNova® luminous material.
