The Panerai Luminor collection began in 1949 with the development of Luminor, A safer and more efficient luminous substance than the traditional radioactive radium. This innovation set a new standard for military divers’ watches for the Italian Navy, And in the 1950s it developed its signature design with its unique crown protection device, Cushion-shaped case, Large Arabic numerals and baton hands.
The Panerai Luminor Marina Carbotech PAM01661 is a representative diver's watch that combines Panerai's innovative material technology with an iconic design. The Carbotech™ case and bezel make it extremely light and durable, Weighing only 96 grams. Carbotech is a material made by compressing polyether ether ketone and carbon fibers at high temperatures and pressures. It is resistant to corrosion and has a unique pattern that varies from watch to watch. The case back is made of titanium with a DLC coating, Making it both durable and lightweight. This model is representative of Panerai's experimental spirit, Combining Panerai's traditional Luminor design, Innovative Carbotech material, And practical specifications.
