Catalogue Note
Panerai paid homage to the first Radiomir 1940 and created two special edition wristwatches which were launched at SIHH in 2012. The two versions are distinguished by the different case materials. PAM00398 Radiomir 1940 'Oro Rosso' is cased in pink gold and PAM00399 Radiomir 1940 'Acciao' is cased in stainless steel. The most distinctive feature of these watches are the lugs; instead of being made of steel wires, the lugs are formed directly from the same block of precious metal or stainless steel as the case, making it more resistant under extreme conditions. The two Radiomir 1940 models are limited to 100 pieces only with the first 50 available in pairs, presented together in an exclusive wooden presentation box. The present set is numbered 17 and offered in excellent, likely unworn condition.
