A study in contrasts: Luminor Piccolo Due PAM01247 and PAM01248

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Luminor Piccolo Due, the first Panerai model created expressly for women, is a fast-rising star in the Panerai universe, though one of its most recent introductions. True to the brand’s spirit of tireless, thoughtful evolution, the latest renditions of the Piccolo Due maintain its essential character but embrace new aesthetic dimensions destined to expand its appeal. Two new expressions of ascendant icon Piccolo Due, PAM01247 and PAM01248, reveal their beauty in starkly opposing colour palettes, dark and light.

The signature Luminor Due case, including the patented crown safety lock device, in a 38mm size is the foundation for both watches. A deep anthracite colour suffuses PAM01247, starting with its sandwich dial; sun-brushed finishing reveals unexpected gradations as light moves across its surface. The colour continuity extends to the date window at 3 o’clock, which shares the same rich, intense tone.

Numerals, indices and hands filled with white Super-LumiNova™ that glows green in the darkness provide high legibility, and the golden finish of the hands lends warmth to the dial. The accompanying strap in polished black alligator completes the strong, monochromatic presence.

PAM01248 offers contrasting colouring in the identical format: an ivory sun-brushed dial is matched with beige Super-LumiNova™ and gold colour hands that amplify its radiance. A polished red alligator strap encircles the wrist in sumptuous, extravagant colour.

Water-resistant to 3 bar (~30 meters), The Panerai PAM01247 and PAM01248 feature alligator straps with trapezoidal pin buckles in polished steel. Both models include a Quick Release strap system that removes the need to employ tools to change straps. This convenient mechanism allows for greater versatility and personalization of the watch, freely choosing different colours and materials to complement any look and accessory.
