Panerai has introduced a new metal bracelet design for its Luminor and Luminor Due collections, enhancing both comfort and aesthetics. Here’s a detailed description of the design and features:
Design and Aesthetics
V-Shape Design: The bracelet features a progressive “V-shape” that elegantly tapers from the watch case to the buckle.
Finishes: The bracelet showcases a combination of finishes—brushed on the larger links and polished on the edges and central links—to create a striking three-dimensional effect when light hits the bracelet.
Sizes:
The 38mm Luminor Due model transitions from 20mm at the case to 16mm at the buckle.
The 42mm model narrows from 22mm to 18mm, maintaining a sleek profile.
Comfort and Functionality
Lighter Feel: The bracelet’s design ensures enhanced comfort and a lighter feel, making it suitable for everyday wear.
Interchangeability: Equipped with the PAM Click Release System™, the bracelet allows for effortless switching between metal bracelets and straps without tools. This system offers increased versatility and durability.
Material Options
Steel Style: The bracelet is available in polished stainless steel, providing a sleek and modern look.
Goldtech™ Variation: For a touch of luxury, select models feature the Panerai Goldtech™ bracelet, a combination of platinum, silver, and copper for enhanced durability and a rich red hue.
Models with New Bracelets
Steel Bracelet Models: These include the Luminor Due models PAM01508, PAM01539, and PAM01387, showcasing various dial colors such as white, burgundy, and anthracite.
Goldtech™ Models: The Luminor Due TuttoOro models such as PAM01494 and PAM01442 feature the Panerai Goldtech™ bracelet.
Luminor Quaranta BiTempo: This model (PAM01640) comes with a stainless steel bracelet, incorporating a GMT function and high water resistance.
The Panerai bracelets combine innovation with the brand’s legacy, offering a perfect blend of style, functionality, and versatility.
1999
Panerai embarks on a continuous journey of innovation in functionality, comfort, and aesthetics, introducing its first metal bracelet.
The emblematic design is reflected in the outline of each link, inspired by the iconic crown-protecting device — the Panerai system protecting the crown from shocks and enabling great water resistance to the watch.
2008
In 2008, Panerai introduces a new upgraded metal bracelet, featuring a clean design and straight lines.
The links are symmetrical and crafted with a double-curved surface, ensuring the bracelet is not only pleasant to the touch but also comfortable to wear.
2017 Inspired by the first metal bracelet design of the late ’90s, this version combines the best features of its predecessors to refine both form and function.
The result is a lighter bracelet, developed without screws, seamlessly integrating with the case.
