About Panerai
Giovanni Panerai opened a watch shop in Florence in 1860. His successors went on to supply instruments to the Italian Navy. The Radiomir, named after the radium paste patented in 1916, equipped the frogmen. The 1949 Luminor replaced it with tritium and added the bridge that locks the crown.
Bought in 1997 by the Vendôme group, now Richemont, the brand makes its watches in Neuchâtel. Most of them keep a large cushion-shaped case.
