If you'd like to know the price, simply click on the links in the description below. We greatly appreciate it if you'd purchase your next watch from us at jazztime.com. Today, we'll be taking a look at this Panerai Luminor Chronograph, it's reference number, well, literally 1111, or PAM01111 PAM1111 you get the idea. It's basically the Luminor Chrono gold tech with the blue sun ray dial, sunburst dial also known as the blue night or blu notte, as I believe it is an Italian, I'll be going over the case, the dial, what there is of a buzzle the crown functions as well as the movement and this nice alligator, blue alligator leather strap. I will be giving my thoughts on these throughout this video. So starting off with this case, we do have a 44 millimeter sort of a cushion style. Well, it's a sandwich case basically as is typical of Panerai, 44 millimeters, that's sort of the diagonal from the 2 to 8 o'clock position or the 10 to 4 o'clock position, but that's a little bit difficult to fully measure because the chronograph buttons on the left side of the case versus the large crown guard on the right side of the case, do tend to increase the watch case size just a little bit. But aside from that, it's basically 44 millimeters. It wears much larger than that as I'll show you later in the video. All right, so taking a look at the overall construction of this case, it is as they call goldtech or in other words, a gold alloy, basically a rose gold that really compliments the deep hues of this blue on the dial as well as the deep hues of the blue on the alligator leather strap. So very nice complimentary color scheme here. It looks very nice and it sort of gives it a more of an accent as a color rather than being the main focus color if that makes sense, right? You do have the large massive crown guard as you would find on basically any Panerai. It basically protects that wine and crown very nicely at the three o'clock position. And for this watch specifically, we do have the chronograph pushers at the eight and 10 o'clock positions of the case. I'll show you how those work in just a moment. All right, taking a look here at sort of the front of this case, we do have set in brush finishing as well, sort of going around the case, sort of following the curvature of the case here, going past the lugs as well, the lugs themselves also vertically set and brushed going along with the direction that they are going in, okay? And the side of the case, Sam brush finishing as well, because a very nice sort of texture to the overall case here as you wear it. And also on the back here should also mention that there is a Sapphire crystal as well flat, but has a wave motif pattern on there. So if I hold it at this angle, you can actually see it reflect off of the bottom of my light box here with the Panerai, sort of the abstract logo there, sort of the pictorial abstract logo center on the sort of wave motif here, very interesting and quite nice from Panerai. It's a shame that you don't get to see this unless you actually take the watch off, okay? Now, taking a look here at this bezel, a nice high polish gold bezel matching that of the construction of the case. Nothing much else to say here, it sort of gives it that glowing look depending on the angle of light and if you get it just right it looks absolutely gorgeous. All right, so my hand is sort of covering up the light pattern there but you can kind of see at least for the three quarters of this bezel, it does glow very brilliantly. And when it's on your wrist, it glows even better. But I'll show you in a moment once I put it on my wrist and try it on for you. And taking a look at this dial here, this is basically where all of the action happens. Well, it's where all the action happens for every dial, really? So it's what they call the blu notte dial or the blue night dial. It's almost a midnight blue, it's incredibly dark. If you can actually look at the auto exposure on the screen here you can tell that the case is extremely bright. It's blown out and that's due to the auto exposure from the camera, so it can actually show you the blues here. If I zoom out and capture a more average exposure, it gets really, really dark. So it very much lives up to that sort of name, the blue night or almost a midnight blue, it's incredibly dark but it has all the subtleties that come with something so luxurious. And looking here at the inner bezel, you do have the tachometer or tachometer, depending on how you pronounce it, basically works like a Rolex Daytona. So it works with the chronograph functions, the center mounted of chronograph hand, as you can see, I have pointing at 40 seconds there. Basically we have a bunch of videos that talk about chronographs and the tachometer I'm not gonna go over too much here, but it basically works as you would expect, taking a look at the hands here also matching red gold or goldtech as they call it, the proprietary blend of golden, other alloys to make it, a very very strong rose gold while still maintaining that high polish, right? And also we have along the minute track, tiny, tiny graduations so that you can basically be within about an eighth of a second when it comes to the chronograph functions here, and speaking of which I'll cover those right now. So the chronograph functions happen on the opposite end of the case from that of the winding crown. Interestingly enough, very much like the coronagraph, the automatic chronographs of the '60s, sort of echoes that sort of style except it's flipped. So in that sense, it kind of follows, but sort of establishes its own flow because the older watches, the automatic watches of the '60s had their winding crown on the left side with the chronograph pushers on the right side, but this one has the chronograph pushers on the left side with the winding crown on the right side. So very interesting there, and it's also quite fun to operate them, operate the chronograph on the left side, but also keep in mind that the sort of the buttons themselves are actually flipped. So the button that you will want to press to start the chronograph will be on the bottom at the eight o'clock side. So if I press it now, very nice crispy click, right? No weird stuttering starts, no weird stops. It's a very crisp, very crisp click there, all right? So you can cut, you can keep it going. And it does actually very slowly progress that 30 minute sub dial for the chronograph over time. So it's not a tick up every minute. It's a very slow progression that follows the chronograph hand, so very interesting, very good and very good sign of accuracy from Panerai there, you also have the small seconds hand at the nine o'clock position, keeping time just constantly going, right? And when you want to stop the chronograph and reset it, press the 10 o'clock button after stopping the chronograph to reset the chronograph hand center mounted as well as the 30 minutes sub dial, okay? And taking a look at the crown functions, nothing too out of the ordinary here, simply lift or rather raise that lever so you can then, well, at the space position, you can just wind the watch. So if you're at a dead stop about 20 to 30 full winds will get you to the full power reserve, rather simple there, right? And then just simply pull the crown out to the only other position, it actually stops that seconds hand and also it does stop the chronograph hand as well. So let me demonstrate that, you have the chronograph hand going in, let's say, well, we need to set the time ourselves here, pull out the crown and actually does stop that chronograph hand and once you're, you can actually set the minute hand precisely wherever it needs to go, there's no date function here. So no need to worry about that. And based on the position of that second sand if you are using the second sand, go ahead, you can set it based on that or if you want it to, you can just completely ignore the small seconds hand and keep that chronograph hand running, thanks to the vertical clutch on the inside. You can keep it running basically forever if you want it to. And you can basically control your seconds by using that function, so once you've set the time, just lift the lever and close it entirely in order to start up that seconds hand and as well the chronograph hand, all right? So I'm gonna stop and reset it here. All right, so what makes all of this work? It's a movement, you can't see through the case back I already showed you it's the automatic mechanical, the automatic and mechanical P9200 caliber made in house by Panera features 13 and 13, 13.25 lines, 6.9 millimeters thick, in other words 41 jewels with a Glouster balance and ankle block anti shock device. So it basically means you can get relatively close to magnets, magnetism and circuitry and the like, you don't have to take a few bumps here and there, it'll be keeping track of time just fine, no need to worry about the timekeeping abilities of this watch, features 41 jewels and a vibration per hour rating of 28,800 vibrations, meaning four hertz, so you have that high level of accuracy, as you would find in just about any high end luxury watch, especially one with a chronograph. All of this allows you to have 42 hours of power reserve within a single barrel. So that's a lot of power reserve with a single barrel. It gives you just about everything you'd actually need and you can basically wear this every other day and be just fine, you don't even need to wind the watch because it does have a center mounted rotor on the inside, which allows you to basically wear it throughout the day, that will wind it by itself. So you can basically set this down late Friday evening you can pick it back up Sunday morning and no need to wind the watch or even Sunday afternoon and that's totally fine, just wear it all day Sunday, be good to go on Monday, all right? So also keep in mind that this entire casing here does go down to only 50 meters of water resistance or five bar, that basically means all these surface is swimmable at best, certainly wash your hands and you can, you can wear this in the rain that's totally fine. Just don't go deep diving with it otherwise you could, implode the case, all right? Well, I'm zoomed out here, you can also see that this does have an alligator blue strap here with a matching dark blue stitching, all right? So 24 millimeter lug with a 22 millimeter sort of a buckle and piece there, all right? So starting off at the case, you do have larger scales and the scales get progressively smaller as you reach the end of the strap. You have sizing holes so you can size it on the fly. Should you so desire and also satin brush finished buckle nice and large as you would find on a Panerai rather typical here. So nothing too different here. You have two minder loops, the first one being stationary, the second one being, you know, able slide so you can actually size it yourself, right? And while I'm here I can actually show you a couple more things, taking the strap. Okay, so let me do this off camera so I don't break the strap, not that it would break at all because the strap is actually incredibly resilient. It's super strong, If my camera would like to focus here, has a sort of like a calfskin underneath. It feels incredibly soft and the matching blue stitching does go all the way through, right? And it's incredibly thick as well. So this definitely will last you a very long time. It will develop its own patina and look absolutely gorgeous over time, okay? Now also taking a look underneath the buckle here, you do also have hallmarks here, signifying that you are working with rare metal in other words, red gold here. All right, now, while I'm here I can try it on give you an idea of what it looks like on a seven inch wrist at least. All right, so if I size this to my own wrist, I could actually go to the second hole here, but I'll take it to the third, just in case. All right, now taking a look at it straight on here, if I can zoom out here. Now the 44 millimeter case does wear very wide. It has a very wide stance on their wrist, thanks to the large crown guard and the chronograph pushers. So it sort of gives it that sort of visual spatial effect of being closer to like a 15 millimeter watch. It's absolutely gigantic on my wrist. If you have a larger wrist, this'll fit you just fine. And certainly it's fine if you have a smaller wrist, like six and quarter or even lower than that, because the straps do actually bend or they pivot in place. So you can basically wear this regardless of your wrist size, the smaller your wrist, the bigger the wrist presence, the larger the wrist, well, the smaller the wrist presence. But I won't say it's that much smaller because it's incredibly large because it's a Panerai, you can't really expect much more than that. It's just a large watch in general, incredibly easy to read as well. And with the luminescence here, let me show you that it has its own sort of a luminescent disc underneath the dial there. That's sort of what gives that sandwich style look, every aspect of this in luminescence here. If I can just cover it up even more, you can see it's incredibly bright and have slightly different tone of green for the minute and our hands as well. Let me zoom in there. So minute hour and the seconds hand have a slightly off tone green so you can differentiate those much more easily as you are watching this or looking at this in low light situations. Whereas the rest of the numbers here, the 12 and six Arabic numerals as well as the index Aramark's and the 30 minute or the 10 minute marks for the subdial for the chronograph and the sort of a 15 second marks for the small seconds hand all share the same index Aramark colors there for the luminescence. All right, turning the lights back on, again, incredibly easy to read because of the dark blue, the luminescent disc underneath, very very nice sort of like a cream color or white when you look at it in the light and again in nice glowing green in the dark, incredibly easy to read regardless of your lighting situation and taking a look down the wrist here, again on my wrist, it fits quite nicely, a tiny bit of overhang of the lugs there. Again, if you have a larger wrist these will hug your wrist. Not that that's that much of an issue with a sort of a larger wrist. You will actually be able to utilize all of these sizing holes, should you so desire? No problem there, all right? And granted that does also come with a dark blue rubber strap sort of matching this color but in other words actually more matches the lighter sort of values of the dial here. So the alligator leather strap closer to the midnight, the rubber strap, closer to the lighter sort of early evening or very early morning sort of light blues of this dial as you can, if you can imagine, all right? Now taking this off my wrist, it does feel a little bit heavy because, well, it is a gold watch, it's a Panerai. You can't expect a very light watch on your wrist, but given that it is all solid gold construction or gold alloy, it's pretty light for what it is. It's very much matching these sort of steel models that I've ever tried on my wrist. So including the steel model with the bracelet, it has the same sort of heft to it, right? But that's enough of what I think.
