SUMMARY

With its cushion-shaped case, distinctive crown guard and rotating bezel, this Italian-designed diver’s watch is instantly recognisable as a model in Panerai’s hardcore Submersible line. More than simply looking the part, this example is equipped with an impressive 1,000m of water resistance - ensuring it’s capable of any aquatic activity. The matte black dial is built with legibility in mind and features large hour markers and hands. The luminous material is made from tritium and has faded to a warm and characterful patina. Internally, it’s powered by the OP III calibre which is equipped with automatic winding and a 42-hour power reserve. The watch is paired with a contrast stitch black leather strap.
