PANERAI - PAM505 Radiomir Composite® Black Seal 3 Days Automatic- 45mm

OFFICINE PANERAI -  Radiomir Composite® Black Seal 3 Days Automatic- 45mm PAM505  2012



The technology of Panerai Composite is combined with the 1930s appeal of the classic Radiomir cushion case in the new Radiomir Composite® 3 Days – 47mm and the Radiomir Composite® Black Seal 3 Days Automatic – 45mm, two models with movements completely designed and created by Officine Panerai in the manufacture of Neuchâtel.
 
The Radiomir Composite® 3 Days – 47mm (PAM00504) has a cushion case in brown Panerai Composite, surrounding a dial of the same colour. Featuring the classic alternation of linear markers and large figures at the cardinal points, this dial has the construction devised by Officine Panerai in the late 1930s to enhance readability even under very poor lighting conditions: two superimposed discs contain the luminous material, the light from which shines through the apertures in the upper one corresponding to the markers. Its quintessential design is enhanced by the small seconds dial at nine o’clock and by the inscription Radiomir Panerai.

The Radiomir Composite® Black Seal 3 Days Automatic – 45mm (PAM00505) has a Radiomir case 45 mm in diameter made of Panerai Composite and the classic Panerai dial also has the date window at three o’clock.

The name Black Seal, printed on the dial, is a proprietary name of Officine Panerai which evokes fascinating memories of the history of the brand: Black Seal was one of the names used to describe the slow-speed torpedoes, the midget submarines on which the commandos of the Italian Navy carried out their heroic underwater enterprises during the Second World War, with Panerai watches and instruments on their wrists.

The Radiomir Composite® 3 Days and the Radiomir Composite® Black Seal 3 Days Automatic are water-resistant to 10 atmospheres (about 100 metres). Each is supplied with a strap of natural untreated leather, fastened by a buckle made of Panerai Composite.
