The Panerai Submersible replica aesthetic is familiar – a unidirectionally rotating bezel is still paired with a cushion case and a Luminor-style crown guard. These are proper dive watches – in the case of the Submersible 42, they can go to to 300 meters. The decision to put its most robust tool watches in its own distinct collection seems like a good one. On the wrist, the Submersible 42 fits comfortably and has terrific presence. 42mm is currently the smallest Submersible size, but this watch still feels every bit a Panerai and ever bit a technical dive watch. And of the cushion shape of the case, with its protruding corners, to say nothing of the protruding crown guard, cause the Submersible 42 to wear a touch larger than its stated diameter would have you believe.
The relationship of Panerai and America’s Cup began in 2017, when Panerai stepped into the sailing sport elite and became an Official Partner of the prestigious sailing competition and the sponsor of the Oracle Team USA and Softbank Team Japan. The Panerai Submersible GMT Luna Rossa Titanio pays homage to the official America’s Cup races taking place in Barcelona between August and October 2024. The new watch features a 42mm case made from Grade 5 titanium, renowned for its remarkable lightness and strength, being 40% lighter and 60% harder than stainless steel. The GMT hand, inspired by the sails of the Luna Rossa sailing team, is matched with a blue sun-brushed dial and flange, which proudly bears a decal of the Luna Rossa sail. Additionally, the watch features a unidirectional rotating titanium bezel with a blue matt ceramic disk known for its high resistance to scratches, essential for withstanding the shocks or unintended contact with various objects the bezel is usually exposed to and might be damaged by. The indices and the hour hand are accented with green lacquer, a deliberate choice that evokes the luminescent vibrancy of Super-LumiNova® X2, while Super-LumiNova® X-1 illuminates the blue-accented minute hands and dots on the bezel. Ensuring versatility and style, the watch comes with two strap options. The first bi-material strap features a striking red stripe with the words Luna Rossa in white against a blue backdrop, while the second rubber strap boasts a uniform blue tone. The bi-material strap combines the resilience rubber with the aesthetics of textile to reflect the watch’s robust and sporty nature.
