Panerai Luminor collection men's wristwatch, model Paneral Luminor Flyback 1950. Ref: PAM00212. Case material: stainless steel (316L). Case diameter: 44 mm. Strap material: leather. Color of dial and case: black for dial; overall design is black. Movement type: automatic mechanical chronograph movement, Caliber 7 Days Chrono Quartz. Functions include central hour, minute, second hands with date window at approximately 3 o'clock position, and a flyback chronograph function (black ceramic tachymeter bezel). Water resistance depth: up to 100 meters (approx. 330 ft) which is suitable for swimming but not diving. Case design features patented crown protecting bridge; bold architecture typical of the Luminor 1950 family. Sapphire crystal lens protects the dial, with domed and possibly slight curve technology enhancing legibility through multiple AR coatings. Black dial equipped with luminous hour markers (likely trapezoidal) for enhanced visibility in low light conditions, along with a prominent applied index at 6 o'clock position. Subdial configuration: black dial features two subdials displaying the minutes and hours of elapsed time respectively, positioned appropriately on the layout; these are part of the chronograph complication. Chronograph function allows measuring split times accurately via start/stop pushers (at approximately 2 past twelve and 4 o'clock) and a column wheel operated flyback function to reset the subdials without stopping the timing mechanism. Automatic winding system with bidirectional rotor for continuous movement charging; it is self-winding as the wearer moves their wrist.
The PAM00212 combines Panerai's military heritage-inspired design elements, such as the bold case and indices reminiscent of original diving watches, with modern watchmaking capabilities like an automatic chronograph. It comes presented on a supple black leather strap ensuring comfortable wear; suitable for various occasions due to its classic yet sporty appearance and substantial size (44 mm). The flyback complication enhances functionality during time measurement tasks requiring multiple laps or splits.
