The Radiomir Titanio 47mm, which was introduced by Panerai recently, flaunted the reappearance of the classic and legendary Radiomir with great historic value. The first Radiomir watch was developed in 1936, and was in official production in 1938. It was the first professional diving watch in Panerai history, specially designed for the Italian naval commandos, and played an important role in varous major military missions. Radiomir has also set a precedent in the watch-making industry, and the watches launched at that time, have became the new star in international antique watch auction, which made Panerai popular all over the world.
This brand-new Radiomir special edition watch was only produced in a limited number of 12, to satisfy the collectors, watch enthusiasts and those who were fond of history. The dial was balck, so the luminous hour markers and hands were more prominent in contrast of color. 47mm cushion-shaped case design, coupled with slim bezel and metal lugs. Different from the prototype version, the lugs of Radiomir today were not linked to the case by welding, but through Panerai patented strap replacement system to disassemble. Screw-in winding crown was cone-shaped, making the waterproof capacity of the watch up to 10 bar(100m).

All-out Attack of Panerai Manufacture Movement - The Charm of Titanio

Titanio / P.9000 self-winding movement / hours, minutes, small seconds, date / sapphire, see-through case back / 300m waterproof / 44mm in case diameter / suggestion price: NT$235,000

The Pioneer of Manufacture Movement

Since ETA announced that they would no longer provide movements, many watch factories began to research and develop their own movements, Panerai was the pioneer in this field, because it has manufactured movements by itself since 2002, Panerai introduced its first in-house movement P.2002 in 2005, since then, this researching road has never stopped, from P.2002 to P.2006, the function of the 2000 series movement could be said very complete, but because of its high pricing, it could not replace the ETA movement, in view of this, Panerai published the 9000 series movements, including P.9000(Subsidiary Seconds added with date), P.9001 and P.9002(GMT and Power Reserve), whether from the specifications, components, polishing or the functions, these three movements were obviously the simplifying editions of the 2000 series, and the price is similar to the entry-level model's of the general ETA movements.

Titanium made case, its anti-allergic, wear resistance and light characteristics supplied good wearing comfort, and the Crown Guard of the Luminor series was bright for the eyes.

This time, the Titanium watch Luminor Marina 1950 3 Days was equipped with P.9000 automatic movement, which was made up of 197 components, two barrels and had 72-hour power reserve, although you don't want to be bound by time on Saturday and Sunday, you could remove it from your wrist, and when wearing it again on Monday, it still worked accurately, very practical. The stopping seconds device made it possible to adjust the second hand independently.

PANERAI P.9000 that was equipped in this watch had two barrels and 3-day power reserve, the skeleton dial made the operation of the movement be clear.

The dial colour was coffee, which has been very hot in recent years, the dial structure was the classic Sandwich design, the luminous hour markers made it very easy to read time at night. The case was made of Titanium, whose anti-allergic made it easy to wear for those people who were metal-sensitive. The light feature of the Titanium made the whole watch look stable rather than heavy. The brown alligator leather strap echoed with the brown dial. Certainly, the distinctive Crown Guard of the Luminor watch protected the crown, was a scintillating point. The full Titanium model was also available.

During September 27 to October 3, Panerai would exhibit its newest Titanium watches in Cheng Tai Watch Shop in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. In 2007, Panerai published four Luminor Marina watches, they all adopted Titanium material and used the new no-screw case to assemble, including the model that was fitted with metal bracelet. Besides, another Titanium watch that would be shown was Luminor 1950 Submersible Depth Gauge, the watch was suitable for professional divers and supplied diving measurement.

The brand-new Luminor Marina Titanium watches(leather strap and metal bracelet were available, case diameter was 40 or 44mm) used no-screw case to assemble, it was a new technology that fixed the movement in the Casing Ring, not only improved the structure quality of the watch, but also very convenient for technical maintenance, whether it was a regular testing, or the more complex adjustments, they all could be implemented effectively. The Luminor Marina with metal bracelet saved 40 pieces of screws on the design of the bracelet, so it reduced the time that was wasted in assembling or removing links, or adjusting the length of the bracelet.

PAM00193 / Titanium / OP XV self-winding movement / hours, minutes, small seconds / diving time measurement / C.O.S.C. / 42-hour power reserve / 28,800 vph / 47mm in case diameter / arc-shaped sapphire / 120m waterproof / rubber strap, brushed steel buckle engraved with "PANERAI" word / suggestion price: NT$463,000

The 47mm Luminor 1950 Submersible Depth Gauge combined the features of depth gauge and professional diving watch. The depth gauge device of the watch has independently received the testing and certification of METAS. Being able to pass the multi-level testing of official organization, because Panerai deeply understood that any faults or any mistakes on the scales would cause the diver plunged into a very dangerous situation. So, the Luminor 1950 Submersible Depth Gauge has been certificated by METAS and proven to be a reliable and professional divng equipment. Besides the exquisite craft, the Luminor 1950 Submersible Depth Gauge also reflected the history and spirit of Panerai perfectly. Before manufacturing wrist watches for Italian Navy, Panerai has provided them with many precision optical instruments, like depth gauge(even could be used underwater), compass and flashlight, etc. Now, Panerai combined the two functions into one masterpiece that highlighted its glorious history.

Based on Minerva Movement

Tracking from memory or exploring the design elements that were associated with history was an essential development direction in modern watch-making industry, so was Panerai. Every detail of each series, the streak of the case, even the design of the new models, Panerai put emphasis on the historical origin of their own. In 2008, Panerai introduced a Radiomir watch that was equipped with Minerva movement, in fact, the combination like this has appeared in the past, including Rolex movement, Lemania single-pusher movement and Angelus SF 240 8 Days movement. This time, the new Radiomir Titanium 47mm was not a re-edition of Panerai, and Minerva has not been incorporated into the Richemont Group, so, it was not surprised that its movement would be equipped by the watch brand in the Richemont Group. Panerai emphasized the relation between history and design, and Minerva indeed supplied some movement parts to Panerai during the 1930s and 40s, so, the collaboration of this time was natural and logical.


Large geared wheel was Minerva's feature, its frequency was 18,000 vph. Special bridge shape, although there was no "Minerva" word engraved on, after being modified by Panerai, it was obviously the Minerva's design in appearance.

Collaboration Related to History

OP XXVI, which was modified from Minerva Cal. 16-17, kept the original feature of Minerva, like the large geared balance wheel, 18,000, although the bifurcated bridge has been improved, you could recognize it was the Minerva's design. In appearance, Panerai CEO Angelo Bonati expected to use simple material to show the movement's value, so they first adopted Titanium on Radiomir, the bezel is polished.


The Pink Gold Ring around the inner bezel was a new decoration which Panerai added, it was to imitate the past spiral that was used to fix the bezel. The Pink Gold Ring on the Sandwich Dial was a newly added detail, whose design concept came from the spiral that was invented in the 1940s, it was used in those 8-days models and its role was to fixed the bezel. The new Radiomir watch that was equipped with the discontinued Minerva movement was published in a limited number of 150, 100 pieces for black dial and 50 for coffee dial. Besides, Panerai also assembled 50 pieces of vintage Minerva chronograph movements into Ferrari, which was based on the different attribute of the two brands.
