Scroll lower for more info around the new watches, each of which boast an eight-day energy reserve.

The equation of your time, a classy astronomical complication that measures the main difference between mean some time and photo voltaic time (and described in greater detail here), may be the signature purpose of Panerai’s new P.2002/E quality, a handbook-winding movement according to Quality P.2002, the brand’s first in-house movement that first showed in 2005.

The casebacks have azure viewing home windows that provide a look at Quality P.2002/E, and particularly the energy-reserve display, that has been moved here because of its traditional place being occupied through the equation-of-time indication around the dial.

The Panerai Radiomir 1940 Equation of your time 8 Days Acciaio – 48 mm is really a special edition of just 200 pieces, and also the Panerai Luminor 1950 Equation of your time 8 Days – 47 mm is much more limited, to simply 100 pieces.
