Left Crown Watch - Panerai Luminor Destro Otto Giorni PAM01655

In order to free the commando divers' left hand to wear other important tools, Panerai once designed a special watch that is convenient for right-handed wear, with the crown on the left. The new timepiece draws inspiration from this legendary history, demonstrating the brand's firm pursuit of functionality and practicality. The Panerai Left Crown watch was born in the 1960s, model 6152/1, marking a major innovation in watch design. Mr. Giuseppe Panerai's vision is to create a watch suitable for left-handed people to wear on the right wrist, and to enhance the waterproof performance of the watch through the crown bridge device, thereby improving the comfort and flexibility of wearing. This innovative design, especially when paired with a compass or depth timing, shows great practicality, reflecting Panerai's original intention to meet the needs of diving.

The Panerai Luminor Destro Otto Giorni PAM01655 watch has a diameter of 44 mm, which is more sophisticated than the 47 mm military design of its predecessor. It is equipped with a P.5000 manual winding movement with a power reserve of up to 8 days - this outstanding performance also pays tribute to the Italian Navy Commandos' strict requirements for the durability of watches. It is inspired by the Angelus SF240 movement with an 8-day power reserve. Best Panerai Luminor clone watches online, buy replica watches at firstwatchclone.co.

The P.5000 movement has a diameter of 15½ lignes (35.1 mm), a thickness of 4.5 mm, 21 jewels, and 113 parts. The movement is equipped with a variable inertia balance wheel with a frequency of 3 Hz, equivalent to 21,600 vibrations per hour, and is supported by a straddle-type balance wheel bridge, which is safer and more stable than a cantilever bridge. The side-by-side double barrels run synchronously when winding. The sturdy bridge also helps the escapement system to operate smoothly when it is impacted, thereby significantly improving the timing performance. The transparent sapphire crystal caseback allows you to see the complex movement at a glance.

One of the distinctive features is the crown at 9 o'clock and Panerai's iconic crown protection device. This design caters to left-handed people or those who prefer to wear watches with their right hand, and strikes a fine balance between aesthetics and functionality. This 44 mm watch is designed for contemporary collectors and pays tribute to the classic design that has an important position in the brand's history. The polished stainless steel case and bezel are paired with a simple black dial, and the beige Super-LumiNova® luminous coating gives the dial a clear luminous effect.

Designed for right wrists, the PAM01655 combines tradition and innovation, embodying many iconic elements from Panerai's glorious history. The new features include a dodecagonal screw-in caseback and a unique structure that rotates the movement 180°. Another ingenious design is the crown protection device with a push-down locking rod, which highlights Panerai's unremitting pursuit of balancing comfort and practicality. The sandwich dial, composed of double superimposed discs, further combines heritage and innovation, ensuring excellent and lasting readability in any light conditions. The new watch is water-resistant to 30 bar (about 300 meters), and has been rigorously tempered by a pressure test that exceeds the guaranteed water resistance by 25%, fully demonstrating Panerai's rigorous standards for excellence.
