The Panerai Luminor Tre Giorni PAM01628 is a striking 47mm timepiece that seamlessly blends Panerai’s storied legacy with cutting-edge craftsmanship. The patina-finished steel case evokes the rugged charm of the watches worn by Italian commandos during underwater missions, while the iconic sandwich dial—a hallmark of Panerai since the 1930s—ensures exceptional legibility. The gradient black and grey-grained dial features beige Super-LumiNova® markers, enhancing visibility in low-light conditions.
The case’s matte finish, achieved through meticulous hand-applied techniques, exudes a vintage allure, complemented by brushed steel elements on the bridge, lever, and buckle for added texture and depth. This interplay of finishes is a nod to the brand’s mastery in combining aesthetics with functionality.
Movement and Mechanics At the heart of this masterpiece lies the manually wound P.3000 calibre. Boasting a three-day power reserve via two barrels emphasises reliability and precision. The calibre features a robust 11.7mm balance wheel oscillating at 21,600 vibrations per hour and is supported by a traversing balance bridge for enhanced stability. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement’s design draws inspiration from vintage Panerai calibres, with open bridges offering a clear view of its utilitarian craftsmanship.
Straps and Versatility The watch comes with a vintage-effect dark brown calf leather strap featuring beige stitching for an elegant yet rugged look. Additionally, a black rubber strap is included, offering versatility for more active settings. The trapezoidal brushed steel pin buckle ensures a secure and stylish fit.
Durability and Practicality Water-resistant to 10 bar (~100 meters), the Luminor Tre Giorni PAM01628 is rigorously tested to exceed Panerai’s stringent standards. Its construction reflects the brand’s commitment to producing robust timepieces suited to demanding environments.
