RADIOMIR FIRENZE REF PAMA0672, AN ENGRAVED STAINLESS STEEL WRISTWATCH


This exceptional riff on the Radiomir, one of Panerai’s most emblematic models, was created as an homage to the brand’s Florentine heritage. The prototype offered here eventually became the PAM00672, a limited edition of 99 pieces released in 2016. It is distinguished by meticulously hand-engraved embellishments inspired by traditional Florentine architecture, an exacting design that takes one master craftsman a full week to complete. But unlike the PAM00672’s polished finish, this prototype features a matte brushed-steel case. And where the PAM00672 has a sunburst sandwich dial, this model employs the rarer “California” dial. Marked by a combination of luminous Roman and Arabic numerals and a railway track minute circle, Panerai’s “California” dial debuted on the very first Radiomir created in 1936. The exhibition back displays the hand-wound in-house caliber P.3000/F, which is stunningly laser-engraved with further Florentine motifs. Boasting a power reserve of three days and water resistance to 100 meters, this remarkable watch has beauty and brawn in equal measure.
