1 0 9 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I One new family of reimagined watches that are certain to get Stallone’s seal of approval is the Luminor Due. The brand describes the new line as, “a challenging achievement of the new millennium, in keeping with the Panerai character, the Luminor Due continues its process of evolutionary adaptation. Technical, functional and formal. A landmark.” In keeping with the genetics of the Luminor Due family, Panerai remains unconventional in its attitude and its predisposition. The new watches have been mechanically redesigned in terms of size – the most imposing of the new models is the Luminor Due GMT Power reserve – 45 mm (PAM000964). It is Panerai’s first 45mm watch and it has an interchangeable strap with the Quick Release system. Also, a new wider selection of personal leather straps is now available. Common to all the new models are the radically revised dial designs, which are elegant and contemporary, with printed Arabic numerals and numbers – unmistakably Panerai. This formidable beauty is powered by the P.4002 Calibre. The functions include twin time zones with a dial-side power reserve indication and a 24-hour display with am/pm indicator – all incorporated into a movement that’s just 4.8mm thick. Panerai have succeeded with another awesome statement watch, combining Italian design flair with Swiss horological expertise.
