Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Titanio "PCYC 10 Years of Passion"
To commemorate the 10-year anniversary of producing special-edition watches for its Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge (PCYC), Panerai has released a limited-edition anniversary timepiece, the Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Titanio "PCYC 10 Years of Passion 2005-2014," limited to only 50 pieces worldwide.
This new limited edition of the Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Titanio, which bears a special engraved "10 Years of Passion" logo on its caseback, has the classical 47-mm Luminor Submersible case made of brushed titanium, which has hypoallergenic properties as well as extreme corrosion resistance, toughness and lightness. The Submersible is Panerai's most professional-grade diving watch: the screw-down caseback and the brand's trademarked crown-guard lever help to give the case its water-resistance of 300 meters, and the unidirectional rotating bezel enables divers to time their dives. The ratcheting bezel, which has a graduated scale for calculating the time of immersion, clicks into place in one-minute intervals. The watch's black dial has luminous Arabic numerals and applied indices, a small seconds subdial at 9 o'clock, and a date window at 3 o'clock. The partly skeletonized hour and minute hands are also coated with luminescent material. The sapphire crystal, formed of corundum, is 4 mm thick and has a nonreflective coating.
