No other brand, except perhaps Rolex and Audemars Piguet, has such a loyal and constantly growing fan base as that of Panerai’s devoted followers. Perhaps the reason for this trend lies in the fact that this cult Italian brand enjoys an excellent reputation, offering high quality and unique design. Another reason is probably that Panerai, founded in Florence in 1860, was chosen as the official supplier to the Italian Navy as early as the beginning of the last century. Certainly, no less reason for the attachment to the brand is given to its fans by the unmistakably recognisable case design, which has become its distinctive hallmark.

At present, Panerai offers four main collections: Historic, Contemporary, Manufacture and, of course, Special Editions. An interesting fact is that most of the models are produced in limited annual volumes of around 500 pieces and carry their individual number on the caseback.

The Panerai Luminor Marina 44 mm PAM01312 continues the line of contemporary representatives of the brand, and its main distinguishing features are visible to the naked eye – the modern case and the blue seconds hand. The case is equipped with the brand’s quick-change strap system, which allows the owner to easily change straps according to mood and preference.

The watch continues the series of contemporary models of the brand using in-house calibres, and this particular one is built around Panerai’s revolutionary in-house P.9010 calibre.

This is one of the watches that can confidently be placed among the leading positions in the “most versatile watch” ranking – at least in our humble opinion, this is exactly the case. In our view, at least when it comes to the shape of the case, nowadays there are not many manufacturers that offer such a convenient and comfortable case for the different moments of life as Panerai does.

We think that if someone wants a Panerai that is strong, in the most popular case size of 44 mm, beautifully made and produced entirely in-house, with enough “iron” presence and with the classic brand style featuring the crown-protection bridge, the Panerai PAM01312 is one of the right choices.

The watch is muscular enough with its 44 mm, but at the same time it is also very elegant thanks to its case combining polished and brushed steel, as well as the possibility to combine it with numerous variations of leather, rubber and metal straps. This watch is extremely comfortable, mainly because of its flat shape and the incredibly ergonomic, curved vintage lugs that embrace the wrist, while the superb illumination of the so-called sandwich dial makes you look at it frequently even in the dark.
