RADIOMIR ORO ROSSO - 42MM

IN ABOUT 1940, THE PANERAI WORKSHOPS IN FLORENCE PERFECTED A NEW CASE, designed to meet the increasing demands of the commandos of the Italian Navy. The case was a development of the one presented in 1936 which is known today as the Radiomir -- a term which originally referred to the luminous material patented by Panerai to make the dial readable in the dark -- but it presented some innovations designed to make its construction even more solid and hardwearing.
