A Radiomir Bonanza — Six New References From Panerai
A Radiomir Bonanza — Six New References From Panerai Panerai adds a whopping six new models to its Radiomir lineup. The drop ranges from simple new “8 Giorni” variants to annual calendars in precious metals. This, my dear Fratelli, is the year of the Radiomir. Let’s have a closer look at these new additions from Panerai.To get more news about panerai submersible replica, you can visit paneraireplica.co official website. The Panerai Radiomir is a bit of a personal favorite of mine, although I have not quite come around to buying one just yet. I love the pebble-like feel of the cushion case and its pairing with the diamond crown and wire lugs. I like the Luminor, but I love the Radiomir. So when the time came to divide the workload for Watches and Wonders, I quickly volunteered to cover Panerai’s Radiomir bonanza.This is not the time and place for deep historical analyses. After all, we have got no less than six references to cover here. But it pays to briefly touch upon the Radiomir’s history. The story starts in 1916 when Panerai first use the name “Radiomir” to describe a radium-based luminous substance. The company then filed a patent to protect the exclusivity of this self-luminescent paste.It took until 1935 before we saw anything resembling a Radiomir watch. Panerai developed a watch (ref. 2533) on a Rolex base, specifically for the Italian Royal Navy. The concept was further refined during the 1940s, resulting in ref. 3636. The large 47mm cushion case featured welded wire lugs and a Cortebert/Rolex caliber 618. A fully lumed lower dial was covered with an anodized aluminum black dial with cutouts for the indices. Thus, the characteristic sandwich dial was born. Later, in 1958, Panerai delivered a watch to the Egyptian Navy that featured the Angelus SF240 caliber. This hand-wound caliber had an impressive eight-day power reserve. Most early Radiomir models were exclusively produced for the Italian Navy, and there was no production for civilian use. It wasn’t until 1993 that Panerai started releasing versions of its later Luminor and Mare Nostrum to the general public. A civilian version of the Radiomir would follow in a 1998 commemorative re-edition in platinum. This was a statement of intent by the Vendôme group (later Richemont), which had acquired Panerai in 1997: the house would be repositioned as a luxury watch brand.As you can see from the quick overview above, the eight-day power reserve is something important for Panerai. Those watches from 1958 featured “8 Giorni Brevettato” (meaning “8 days patented”) on the dial. Panerai’s modern proprietary hand-wound caliber P.5000 also boasts an eight-day reserve. For this reason, we still see that seal proudly sitting on the dial of these new PAM01347 and PAM01348 models.
