Featuring a Vintage-Finished Brown Dial
To commemorate the 20th anniversary of Paneristi, a web community for Panerai watch enthusiasts, Panerai has released the "Radiomir Ventidue – 45mm," a limited edition of 1020 pieces, supported by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
This timepiece is the result of a passionate creative process, born from close collaboration between Panerai's Laboratorio di Idee (Ideas Laboratory) and Paneristi. The "Paneristi.com" logo is engraved on both the dial and the case back, celebrating the 20th anniversary of this dedicated group of enthusiasts.
This model reinterprets the expressive design codes of the first Radiomir, introduced in the late 1930s, with a contemporary sensibility. While inheriting the quintessential Italian design that has captivated people for nearly a century, it features updated elements such as beige Super-LumiNova™ and a vintage-finished brown dial that mimics the patina of time found on original models that have survived to this day.
It is complemented by sword-shaped, gold-colored hands, a typical element of original models that evokes the brand's illustrious past.
The bezel and case, crafted from AISI 316L steel, are finished with a matte aging treatment, enhancing their presence. Furthermore, as a tribute to Paneristi's 20th anniversary, the engraving "VENTI," meaning "20" in Italian, is applied between the lugs at the 6 o'clock position.
Inside the case lies a hand-wound movement, designed, developed, and manufactured by the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel, echoing the mechanical specifications of the brand's early models. This Caliber P.6000 boasts a three-day power reserve.
The beige calfskin suede strap features tone-on-tone stitching, and the trapezoidal steel pin buckle, hot-stamped with the "OP" logo, is also aged, exuding a vintage style.
