Panerai means different things to different collectors, but wherever you stand on the spectrum there's no denying that these things have presence!
Although not exactly small, Panerai watches do have a way of wearing smaller than advertised, with their excellent "cushion" case design that has become synonymous with the brand.
Measuring 47mm in a stainless steel housing with a sapphire crystal, a signed crown, and a polished bezel, this particular Radiomir features a "California" dial with 'Arabic' and 'Roman' indices, a matching 'sword' handset, and an outer 'railroad' minute track. Vintage-colored lume gives the impression of an old military watch, while the hand-cranking Panerai Calibre P.3000 movement — visible via a display caseback — provides power. A signed, black leather strap with a signed, stainless steel pin buckle completes the picture.
Dating to the 2010s but looking like an object from the 1940s, this handsome tool watch will prove an exciting addition to your collection. Try it on for size!
