Panerai 2026 Novelties – From Vintage Luminor to a Navy SEALs Watch | Watches & Wonders 2026

Panerai comes to Watches & Wonders 2026 leaning hard into its military and tool watch DNA — with a vintage-inspired Luminor revival, a record-breaking power reserve, and one of the most extreme watches ever released under the brand's name. Tim Mosso goes hands-on with every piece.

The PAM01731 wears a tobacco brown sandwich dial; the left-handed PAM01732 Destro pairs a matte blue dial with a crown guard positioned for right-wrist wear — the original military configuration for divers who needed their left hand free. The Luminor 8 Giorni PAM01733 introduces Brunito — a new proprietary finish that starts with black PVD on steel, then is manually brushed back to reveal the metal beneath. Every case comes out slightly different. Combined with an 8-day power reserve from the P.5000 movement, it's the pick of the collection. The Luminor PAM01735 goes full vintage at 47mm — the original size — with an ivory tropical-effect sandwich dial that darkens toward the edges. The Luminor Forged Titanium PAM01629 joins it at 47mm in Panerai's first-ever use of forged titanium: two grades bonded under extreme heat and pressure, creating a wave-like surface pattern where no two cases are alike. Limited to 100 pieces. The Luminor 31 Giorni PAM01631 is the halo piece —
