Marking the 3rd America’s Cup campaign of this partnership, the Maison introduces two new Luminor novelties to the Luna Rossa collection – the Luminor Chrono Flyback Luna Rossa PAM01654 and the Luminor Luna Rossa PAM01653. Highly performing mechanical timepieces, tested for the toughest conditions to ensure reliability, durability and functionality, drawing inspiration from Panerai’s rooted connection with the marine world and Luna Rossa’s striking aesthetics and visual identity.

Key elements of the Luminor collection remain steadfast, from the signature crownprotecting device with lever - a distinctive feature that defines Panerai’s identity and storied history - to the luminous dial, offering optimal readability in all conditions. The rhodium small seconds display further supports performance by allowing users to verify functionality with ease. The references utilize the Super-LumiNova® X1 on markers and hands, ensuring the watch is easily readable even in low-light conditions - an ode to the crucial feature for military naval missions.

PAM01653 is crafted from premium AISI 316LVM - 1.4441 stainless steel, known for its strength and corrosion resistance. It is vacuum arc remelted to maximize purity and therefore it improves the resistance to corrosion. This high-quality alloy consists of iron with a chromium content of 17.0-19.0%, 13.0-15.0% of nickel, and 2.5-3.2% molybdenum for the main alloying elements. This variant is interesting as it is remelted, providing the alloy a high level of cleanliness and a high microstructure homogeneity; thus, resulting in a superior polished finish and enhanced corrosion resistance. Polished and brushed finishes emphasise further the timepieces’ design as well as Panerai’s longstanding watchmaking expertise.

We are excited to extend our partnership cementing further our bond in view of the 38th America’s Cup, the third consecutive we will be experiencing together as a wholesays Max Sirena, the team’s Skipper and Director.

Water resistant up to 10 bar (~100 meters), each watch has been rigorously tested, subjecting it to a pressure 25% greater than the guaranteed water resistance value to ensure it meets Panerai’s stringent standards.

The Luminor Chrono Flyback Luna Rossa PAM01654, a limited edition of 150 pieces, boasts a Titanium 44mm case, emphasizing the robustness and boldness that define Panerai’s tool watches. This material is much lighter than steel, known for its strength, comparable with that of steel but with 44% less weight, making the watch more comfortable on the wrist and thus an ideal choice for those who prioritize both resilience and comfort. It is resistant to corrosion and physical wear, providing robustness and longevity for everyday use.

Powered by the P.9100 caliber, Panerai’s first automatic movement with chronograph functions, it is designed to meet Panerai’s stringent mechanical standards. It incorporates the flyback chronograph function, with tachymeter scale for nautical use. This key feature allows the chronograph hands to reset to zero and restart instantly with a single press. This eliminates the need for the traditional three-step process of stopping, resetting and restarting. The push-button operates the flyback function at 8 o’clock, which also resets the hands to zero when the chronograph is stopped. The pusher is marked by R for reset and F for flyback with red lacquered details to add a dynamic flair.

The caliber is also characterized by a vertical clutch and column wheel mechanism, with chronograph minutes displayed by a central hand that jumps forward every 60 seconds. Equipped with two patented mechanisms, the movement boasts a 72-hour power reserve, achieved through twin spring barrels in series. These longer, thinner springs ensure a more consistent and extended energy supply. The caliber is visible through a sapphire crystal open case back. Boasting a grey matt-tone sandwich dial, PAM01654 embodies the bold and technical ethos of Luna Rossa team and is accented with striking red details and the team decal. The sub-dials are thoughtfully positioned for symmetric balance and readability, while the red chronograph hands add a dynamic touch. PAM01654 has a black and grey bi-material strap with the emblematic ‘Luna Rossa’ stripe and an additional black rubber strap.

For a functional and stylish timepiece that brings the world of professional sailing to everyday wear, Panerai introduces the Luminor Luna Rossa PAM01653. The sporty-casual design is encapsulated in a 44mm case with Panerai’s distinctive crown-protecting device and a minimalist grey sandwich dial. The engraved indices and clean layout emphasize legibility and functionality with the Luna Rossa decal positioned at 6 o’clock and the smallsecond sub-dial at 9 o’clock, while subtle red accents represent the team’s hues.

The new timepiece is powered by the P.6000 calibre, a hand-wound movement with a threeday power reserve. It measures 15½ lignes in diameter and features a balance wheel that oscillates at 21,600 vibrations per hour. A traversing balance bridge that securely positions the oscillator enhances the movement’s stability and precision. Additionally, the P.6000 includes a stop-second function, which halts the balance wheel and seconds hand when the winding crown is pulled out, allowing for precise time adjustments.

The history of Panerai and Luna Rossa Team partnership

Panerai’s journey with the America’s Cup, a symbol of nautical excellence and innovation, marks a significant chapter in its storied history. The relationship 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. Becoming the Official Sponsor of Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli for the first time in 2019, it was during the 36th America’s Cup presented by Prada, held in the Hauraki Gulf of Auckland in 2021, that Panerai culminated its nautical ties with the team. This partnership emerged naturally for a brand like Panerai that makes performance and technological innovation its distinctive flags. Over all these years of cherished partnership Panerai has relentlessly developed collections of technical watches, one for each year of preparation in the run-up to the ultimate challenge, either drawing inspiration from the technologies and materials used in the America’s Cup or from the insights and needs of the Luna Rossa team. This collaboration intersects with all the pillars of the Panerai identity, embodying Italian DNA, the Maison’s deep-rooted connection to the marine world, and its commitment to crafting instruments for modern heroes. Watches engineered by the Maison’s Laboratorio di Idee at the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel and tested for the toughest conditions, epitomizing the brand’s dedication to durability, reliability, and functionality.
