Catalogue Essay
- Bucherer BLUE is a distinctive lifestyle collection launched by leading retailer Bucherer, in collaboration with selected partners from both within and outside the industry. Bucherer has partnered with Panerai on three limited editions since the concept's inception in 2016, and in 2020, they presented the fourth chapter in this ongoing collaboration: the Panerai Luminor GMT Bucherer BLUE, reference PAM01176.

- Building on the classic Luminor GMT, this new limited edition features a striking black-on-black design. The case is crafted from black ceramic, while the dial is vertically brushed in black, enhancing its mysterious allure. The seconds hand, GMT hand, crown, and stitching are accented in the retailer’s signature blue. The lume on the dial also glows in electric blue in the dark.

- Limited to just 288 pieces, this example, numbered 169, is in like-new condition and is complete with its warranty card and presentation box.

Panerai

Italian | 1860
Known for its robust designs and large case sizes, Officine Panerai was established in 1860 by Giovanni Panerai in Florence, Italy. Around 1900, Giovanni's grandson Guido Panerai took over, and Panerai became the supplier to the Regia Marina — the Royal Italian Navy. After supplying the navy with high-precision instruments for a number of years, Officine Panerai created Radiomir, a radium-based powder that gives luminosity to the dials of sighting instruments and devices. By 1936, the Royal Italian Navy approached Panerai again with the request to design a watch resistant to extreme underwater conditions. The watch they created became known as the "Radiomir".
Panerai's watches made during the early twentieth century era were comprised of cases designed and manufactured by Rolex SA, with Cortébert, a Swiss manufacturer, supplying the majority of their movements. The most recognizable designs from the firm are the Radiomir and Luminor. To date, vintage models from the first half of the 1900s, such as the reference 3646 and 6152 models, remain the most desirable among collectors.
