Panerai, an esteemed Italian watchmaker, boasts a rich history intertwined with naval heritage. Founded in 1860, it initially supplied precision instruments to the Royal Italian Navy. In the 1930s, it developed robust diver’s watches, marked by their luminous dials and cushion-shaped cases. For decades, Panerai’s timepieces were exclusive to military use. However, in 1993, the brand introduced its commercial collection, gaining international acclaim for its fusion of Italian design and Swiss craftsmanship. Panerai watches are characterized by their bold, minimalist aesthetics and sizable case dimensions. The brand’s connection to maritime heritage remains at the core of its identity, appealing to both horological enthusiasts and those captivated by its distinctive history.
