Today, we'll be going over a Panerai. An interesting Panerai, indeed is a 1950 equation of time. Initially released in 2016. This one's made entirely in titanium with a tobacco colored dial, 47 millimeters. And we'll be going over the case, the dial, bit about the bezel, the crown functions, as well as this little interesting crown guard, the movement, as well as the strap here. And I'll be giving you my thoughts on all of those throughout the video, all right. Now, starting off with the case, we have 47 millimeters. That's sort of like the overall diameter that you can sort of measure here, basically from finger to thumb, all right. It's 18.2 millimeters thick at the thickest point, and 57.3 millimeters, I measured lug to lug. With a 26 millimeter lug span between lugs. So, if you have 26 millimeter straps you can just switch them out relatively easily. All right. So now looking at this case here, we have a set and finish across just about every single surface here. All right. Taking a look very closely at every single side of this case, all right. We also have a Sapphire case back, as well as a Sapphire crystal on front. This one on the front is much more bubbled out sort of a hearkening back to the older, like military style watches that Panera had been releasing for, you know, their own Italian army. Okay? Now, looking also at this bezel, we have a smooth domed bezel, entirely polished, high polish all the way around. All right, so, not much more else to say there other than that, it is steel, also titanium. This is an incredibly light watch, right. Now looking at this crown guard also on the side of the case, we also have a lever to allow you to effectively pull, well... What it does is that it allows you to, you know do all the adjustments that you require with the crown. Then when you're done, you can close the lever. And then you'll know that certainly, that the crown is in its like first main position without any issues. And also this crown guard keeps it fully protected. There's hardly any way that you can possibly damage this crown aside from, you know, very, very fringe instances where it just, yeah, just very very fringe instances. Okay, now looking closely at the style. We have a lot going on here. This is a tobacco style dial. It's currently discontinued, all right, but you can still get it from us at JazTime.com. Links in the description below to buy it, okay? Now this dial is quite interesting. It comes with two separate layers. The bottom layer being an entirely loomed layer. A Super-LumiNova layer, that's actually a grade A. Now, they boasted, it has over 30% more luminescent length of time than the standard, you know, say, Super-LumiNova of other watches. All right. Now I'm not gonna test out here because that would take quite a long time. It would probably take up the entire rest of this video. But anyway, I'll just demonstrate it right here. I can turn out the lights, and you can see that it's exceptionally bright. You can see it very well. And I'm looking at my monitor here and it's actually clipping my highlights on this video. It's extremely bright and it lasts for a long time. You can see every single hand on here is loomed including, even the tiny parts of this dial, the subdials as well, as well as the little notation on the equation of time in relation to the six. That's how you can measure it in the dark. Now a little bit more on that in a second. All right, once I turn this light on. Okay, now we can talk about how all of this works. Now, all of the functionality is tied in with the watch dial here. Now, if you're wondering like what all of this stuff means, well, we're gonna go over that right now. Okay, so, let me actually move all of this stuff out of the way because I want to focus on these subdials first. So we have the subdial on the right. Typically it would be... You would see this many subdials on a chronograph, but right here we have an interesting subdial. Now, what is this? Let's, let me actually move this hand out of the way and to do so, I'm actually advancing that tiny subdial very, very slowly, incredibly slowly. This might take the rest of the video to do so, but let me do it just enough so you can actually see what it is. And if you understood enough you may actually figure out what exactly this is. Now, if I can get the angle just right where you can actually see. Now you can't actually see it underneath, but what's effectively at the 12 o'clock position of that small subdial, at the three o'clock position, is a letter D, all right? And then at the three o'clock you have an M, six o'clock you have a J, nine o'clock you have an S. Now what does that mean? Effectively all denotes the months of the year because you have 12 hours on a clock, 12 months in a year. So you can actually use the same exact type of dial at the three o'clock position. So using that in conjunction with the date at the four o'clock position, you can easily determine what month you are in, all right. And the only way to actually set that, is to move the hour hand forward or backward, depending on where you are in the year. Now, this only really works in English, and some other languages. Like December, March, June, and September, but you can also say, you know, Desyembre, Marso, Julyo y Setyembre in Spanish, but not very many other languages. Maybe other, you know, romantic you know, Roman or Latin based languages, perhaps. Okay. Anyway, so that's the small subdial at three o'clock. The subdial at the nine o'clock is related to your GMT hand, which you can actually hide underneath your main hour hand, as you can see there. All right, and this one denotes your second time zone which you can set by using the minute hand, all right. And since it follows the same pace of the hour hand, that's what this subdial is for. This one actually denotes the am and the pm based on the GMT hand, as you can see because the GMT hand does still trail, in this case behind the hour hand. You can move it ahead of the hour hand, or you can move the hour hand behind, and have it, you know have the hour hand then trail the GMT hand. It all depends on how you want to set it, all right. Now, finally, we can look at this equation of time at the very bottom here. What this is, is it actually shows you how to, you know, add or subtract up to 15 minutes either way between civil time, which is what you have on your watch here, and solar time, which is effectively measuring where the sun is, and the sky in relation to you. Now, technically it's the earth rotating on its own axis, revolving around the sun, but I'm not gonna go into all of that astronomy detail, but effectively this equation of time at the bottom at the six o'clock position allows you to subtract up to 15 minutes, or at up to 15 minutes depending on where you are in the world and depending on the time of year. So it is exactly at zero, four times a year, all right, depending on, you know, what time of the year it is. So you can use that using civil time to just, you know, display directly on the dial here. And use this equation to just subtract or add a few minutes, and then you'll get the actual solar time. Not too terribly useful in everyday situations, but it's nice to have. Maybe you're an astronomer or you work in the astronomy industry, or maybe you just like doing, I don't know, daytime photography and you need to know exactly, you know the exact solar time. Well, this is a good tool for you. And when it comes to interesting tools, if we can also take a look at this one on the back with this entire watch is a manual movement. There's no automatic winding rotor here, but this allows you to actually have this date indicator. How many days you have in the power reserve, and it goes up to eight days. All right. So right now we're at about a five day power indication, or a power reserve, which is very, very incredibly useful. And also let me turn off the lights, again, and then note, that the little hand indicating the day also glows. Is that useful? Well, sort of, it's nice to have, but I wouldn't say it's too terribly useful because you can't really read the numbers very easily in the dark, but you know, it's just, Panorai being Panorai doing Panorai things. Okay. Now what is this movement? This movement is the P.2002/E caliber. Now the P.2002 caliber is the base. The E is what allows you to have the equation of time on it. All right, so what it is, it's a very interesting caliber. Oh my God. Okay, so it's made in-house by Paneria, 13 and three quarters lines, 8.3 millimeters thick. Only has 31 Juul, surprisingly. It has a vibration per hour rating of 28,800, or in other words, four Hertz. So it is a high beat wash. You'll get that precision with this watch. It has KEF pair of shock, anti shock absorbers, so not too terribly, you know, the highest quality, but it will get you through the day. There's no chance that, you know standard bumps will affect the timekeeping of this watch. Altogether, it has 328 components, and a power reserve of eight days. As, you know, just indicated right here. And as you can see, as well, it also says eight days, and also has three barrels, that means there's three separate main springs charged up by the winding of the crown on here, all right. And... Actually let me go over the crown functions as well since I haven't actually gone over them. All right, so in order to do anything with the crown, you can disengage the lever, right? And at the default position, you can use it to just simply wind the watch very easily. You don't even need to pull the crown out, okay? Now, pull the crown out to the first, or the second position technically, and you can use the hour hand and move it around. And by extension, you can also change the date as you can see at the four o'clock position. All right. It's also a sort of an unrestricted date setting. As you know, of course, it's not a rapid date setting, so you can do it at any time, and doing so actually it does not change your second's hand. As you can see the small seconds at the nine o'clock position it's still going around the dial just perfectly fine. All right. So anyway, that is the hour hand. Now, pull it out to the final position, and also take a look at what's gonna happen here at the nine o'clock position. That seconds hand just went straight to zero, and that will allow you to move the minute hand, as well as the hour hand and the GMT hand, should you so desire. And you can then set the time precisely, or actually you can use this to move the GMT hand because you can move the hour hand independently, right? So you can use this function to move the GMT hand, and then set the minute hand, and then simply just press it all back in, and you go, it starts up the second hand again, and then you can just go back, and move the hour hand to any position desired. All right, so, very, very good use here. And the equation of time will just set itself automatically. And that's all based off of this, effectively what is an annual calendar directly on this watch. This has a whole lot going on it, all right. Now, onto the the strap here, we have this leather strap, alligator leather on top. We also have a very nice sort of like beige almost yellow stitching going all the way down. Very, very tasteful overall framing here. With the pin buckle style, also in titanium with the Panerai logo on across the buckle there, all right. With these holes for, you know, on the fly sizing, right. Now, while we're here I can try it on my wrist, and I'm just gonna take a stab at it almost literally. Let's just go to the third pin. All right. And now on the wrist, this is absolutely a huge watch. Again, this one is a 47 millimeter wash. Already, the diameter is gigantic, 57.3 millimeter lug span. That's, you know, not counting the strap, and it's gigantic. It's a chunker and you know, this is certainly a watch that definitely echoes sort of like the industrial sort of, you know, aesthetic, the type of person who would wear this. Probably, you know, I would say this is also a timeless sort of washers. No real era that this one can really be tied to, other than, you know, the early fifties, well the 1950 Equation Of Time, that's what it's called. So it would be, you know, tied to the fifties, but also has that modern take of having just so much going on with this, so much function, so much use out of this, all right. The fact that you have a leather strap, it makes this incredibly light. And with a titanium, you can barely tell that there's a watch on here, but the titanium is a bit heavier than the leather. Go figure because it is metal. So it's not like you're swinging a ball and chain around, but it is a noticeable heft on the wrist. Now you may want to be careful if you're used to wearing say, you know, steel, or even gold watches, this one is significantly larger. So be careful of scratching this crystal even though it is Sapphire. The only thing that can possibly, actually damage this would be, you know, pure diamond, but you can never be too safe, all right. So don't smack this on anything because it is quite a large boy. It's 18 millimeters thick at its thickest, so be very careful with that. Other than that, it's a very comfortable fit, actually. Even though these lugs are kind of pointing outward, they're very likely to catch onto, you know, corners, door knobs and such, but they do provide that little bit of extra breathing underneath that leather strap. So you have a very good ventilation source system going on here, even though the rest of the strap will probably make you sweat a little bit on very hot days, but you know, you can always just size it on the fly. Make it a little bit looser, and you know, loosen it up a bit, move it around on your wrist, however. It's one great appeal of having this sort of strap on here. All right.
