Panerai Luminor Perpetual Calendar GMT Platinumtech PAM01575

Panerai introduces the new Luminor Perpetual Calendar GMT Platinumtech PAM01575, a timepiece that combines advanced mechanics, iconic design, and the brand’s innovative materials. A true symbol of Panerai's commitment to precision, this watch brings together the high complication of a perpetual calendar with the robust elegance of the Luminor collection.

The Luminor collection, initially created in the 1960s for the Italian Navy, is renowned for its bold design and distinctive crown-protecting lever, which prevents water from seeping into the case. Over the years, the Luminor has evolved into a versatile platform for Panerai's innovations, blending function with timeless aesthetics. Its most recent incarnation, the PAM01575, builds upon this legacy, offering a sophisticated design that appeals to high-end collectors and enthusiasts

The Luminor Perpetual Calendar GMT Platinumtech PAM01575 features Panerai Platinumtech™, a special alloy with 95% pure platinum that is 40% harder than standard platinum. This makes the case more scratch-resistant while providing a significant weight advantage over 18-carat gold. The watch’s blue sapphire crystal dial not only adds visual appeal but also reveals intricate elements of the perpetual calendar’s mechanics. The luminous applied markers and hands, treated with Super-LumiNova® X2, enhance legibility, even in low-light conditions.

One of the standout features of the PAM01575 is its P.4100 calibre, an automatic mechanical movement developed over ten years by Panerai’s Laboratorio di Idee. This movement offers a three-day power reserve and features a patented date shock protection system, ensuring accuracy and durability. The movement’s intuitive adjustment system allows users to easily set the day, date, month, and leap year, providing a seamless experience that doesn’t require specialized tools.

The watch’s GMT functionality is enhanced by a specially designed GMT spring, ensuring smooth transitions and reliable tracking of a second-time zone. With a water resistance of 5 BAR (approximately 50 meters), the Luminor Perpetual Calendar GMT Platinumtech PAM01575 is both a highly functional and stylish timepiece suitable for everyday wear.

The watch comes with two strap options: a dark blue alligator strap with a vintage handmade patina finish and a casual blue rubber strap. This versatility allows the wearer to adapt the watch to different occasions.
