A Blast From The Future: Presenting The Ulysse Nardin Blast Collection
The Panerai Radiomir collection is widely touted to have the richest history amongst all Panerai watch collections. Made in collaboration with the Italian Royal Navy's Lieutenant Commander Carlo Ronconi, the Panerai Radiomir was documented in a patent filed in 1916. It wasn't until 1936 that the first Radiomir was born. The Panerai Radiomir watch collection debuted as a remarkable innovation in the world of horology. It featured a highly luminescent dial, achieved through the use of radium-based paint. The extraordinary luminescence of Radiomir broke new ground, ushering in a new phase of clarity and practicality in timekeeping. This pioneering technique provided the dial with a distinctive glow, ensuring exceptional visibility in low-light environments. Today, the Radiomir collection sits at the fore of Panerai's portfolio and holds a special place in the hearts of Paneristas with its iconic cushion-shaped cases and exceptional practicality.
Design And Features
The styling of the case carries an authentic vintage aura with its curved and rounded appearance. Unlike the Luminor models that sport a patented crown-protecting device, the Panerai Radiomir watches contain wire lugs, a unique design that connects the straps to the case. With hand-wound or automatic mechanical movements topped with an anti-reflective, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, the Panerai Radiomir collection is available in various dial sizes ranging from 42mm to 48mm.
Iterations
The current lineup of watches in the Radiomir collection surpasses in terms of power reserves, with the Tre Giorni version boasting a three-day reserve and the Otto Giorni stands tall with eight-day running autonomy. Panerai, known for their big case sizes, reduced the usual 45mm to 40mm and named the versions, Quaranta. These iterations are even further rendered in opulent materials and come with more complications like GMT, minute repeater, and more.
