A Winning Tradition Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Team

For more than 150 years, Panerai has stood at the helm of precision and performance. This convention is exemplified in the Luna Rossa collection, featuring four distinctive watches engineered for the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Team, the Challenger of Record of the 36th America’s Cup. It is with great pride that Panerai—the official sponsor of Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Team —crafted these timepieces, which represent a new Italian story associated with the sea, with excellence and with innovation.

Panerai presents a new offering with dual time zone function strongly inspired by the Challenger of Record of the 36th America’s Cup, an authentic synthesis of Italian spirit and invention. Panerai and Luna Rossa share a common mission: perfecting visionary tools destined to change the rules of the game. Today, that mission is renewed and solidified through a privileged partnership with a special dimension, the support provided by the Luminor Luna Rossa GMT – 44 mm (PAM01036).

Unprecedented in its design, revolutionary in its mechanics and distinguished in its materials, the new Luminor Luna Rossa GMT – 44 mm is a model with a high degree of sophistication. It is a pure expression the affinity between Panerai and the Team that first launched the challenge to the Defender of the 36th America’s Cup, the final act of which is expected in Auckland, New Zealand, in 2021.

An embodiment of creativity, excellence and thoroughly Italian technical innovation, Luminor Luna Rossa GMT – 44 mm incorporates cutting-edge materials Panerai has in common with the Luna Rossa Team, like titanium, a metal with hypoallergenic properties and unrivaled lightness and corrosion resistance. With the addition of special carbon-based DLC coating the metal has an increased degree of wear resistance.

Introduced to support Team Luna Rossa in the race for the 36th America’s Cup, the Luminor Luna Rossa GMT – 44 mm highlights and reaffirms its role as Official Watch with a personalized inscription on the dial as well as an intricate engraving on the case back. But above all, it explores new frontiers with the dial itself, which is covered in a thin layer of technical fabric from the sailing equipment of the AC75 monohull of Luna Rossa.

Selected to ensure the ultimate mechanical performance, the Caliber P.9010/GMT, designed and developed entirely by the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel, stands out for the presence of dual barrels that store sufficient energy for a three-day power reserve and rapid time adjustment connected to the modification of the date. The GMT function is crucial for synchronizing with the time zone of Luna Rossa as it is approaching to the 36th America’s Cup.

Water-resistant up to 30 bar (about 300 meters deep), the new Luminor Luna Rossa GMT – 44 mm is equipped with a Ponte Vecchio calfskin strap in black with white stitching. An additional black rubber strap is included, along with a box wrapped in technical sail fabric and personalized with the Panerai and Luna Rossa logos.

Parmigiani Fleurier is proud to present the new Tondagraph Tourbillon. This new watch features a dial which forms part of the new line of timepieces from the manufacture; it perfectly marries modern stylistic design with traditional watchmaking.

The dial has been designed with the utmost care and attention to showcase the tourbillon and the chronograph. Naturally, this watch features the aesthetic codes of the Tonda collection – an ode to roundness – as well as the teardrop-shaped lugs which are characteristic of the brand. A hymn to Haute Horlogerie and a celebration of state-of-the-art expertise.

This exquisite rose gold timepiece, measuring 43 mm in diameter, features a magnificent slate-colour guilloché dial. An opening at 6 o'clock showcases the ultra-sophisticated tourbillon, while a counter at 3 o'clock displays the minutes of the chronograph. The small seconds takes its place on the counter at 9 o'clock, while the power reserve is displayed at 12 o'clock.

The appliques and the skeletonised delta-shaped hour and minute hands elegantly pick up the colour of the case, crown and push-pieces. Powered by the PF354 manually-wound mechanical calibre, this watch offers a power reserve of 65 hours. As is always the case with Parmigiani, the decoration of the movement took a great deal of work.

The various finishes can be admired through the sapphire crystal at the back of the timepiece. Paired with a Hermès Havana alligator strap with rose gold pin buckle, this watch is water-resistant to 10 metres.

The PF354 movement, produced entirely in-house, contains no fewer than 295 components and has a power reserve of 72 hours. Its value can be appreciated in the minute details of its decoration, and reflects the degree of excellence upheld by the Parmigiani Fleurier watchmaking centre.

The bevelling of the tourbillon bridge and the circular graining on the barrel are both visible. Each calibre bears the inimitable hallmark of originality conferred by the craftsman's hand.
