Panerai Luminor 1950 Regatta 3 Days Chronograph Flyback Luxury Watch Review

http://www.thewatchbox.com/watches/panerai The Panerai Luminor 1950 Regatta 3 Days Chronograph Flyback PAM 526 is more than monster complication; it's exclusive. As one of only 700 manufactured for the 2014 Classic Yachts Challenge commemorative series, the PAM 526 is a 47mm titanium offshore racing machine with the hull of a naval cruiser and more trick features than an AEGIS destroyer. Each year since 2005, Officine Panerai has sponsored the Classic Yachts Challenge, a sanctioned regatta for vintage sailing vessels. For each annual edition of the contents, a commemorative Panerai watch has been issued. The 2014 model year Luminor 1950 Regatta 3 Days Chrono Flyback elevated the CYC Panerai series to erstwhile unknown heights of refinement... and size. The Panerai PAM 526 is a monster. At 19.3mm thick and 56.6mm from lug to lug, the Luminor 1950 Regatta is a J-class yacht for the wrist. Like the grandest of racing vessels, the PAM 526 impresses with its striking appearance along. A huge Luminor "1950" case in brushed titanium provides both peerless presence and surprisingly manageable weight on the wrist. Although immense, the PAM 526 wears easily thanks to the lightweight titanium and a wonderfully supple rubber sports strap. Topside, this cabin cruiser bears all of the hallmarks of the classic Panerai Luminor. A two-part "sandwich" dial, crescent-shaped "device protecting the crown," and a squat "cushion" case profile provide a mute testament to the model's combat lega
