Review of Panerai replica Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso watch 45mm
panerai replica is like an outlier in the world of watchmaking:either you like them,
or you hate them.
Indeed,
the design of Panerai replica is too different from the”common standard”and this makes many people dislike it.
However,
for some people,
this uniqueness is what they pursue.
The Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm watch is a prime example of that.
The first thing that makes Panerai replica not too many people care about is the size.
Panerais have never been small,
often measuring 42mm or more in diameter.
With this Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso,
the diameter is pushed up to 45mm,
causing many people with small wrists to raise and lower.
However,
it is this size that makes Panerai special.
For Panerai lovers,
they understand the origin of this design and cherish it.
In short,
the large size is both a drawback but also a uniqueness of Panerai replica.
First,
we need to learn about the history of the Panerai Radiomir.
The first version of this line of watches was born around the Second World War,
used by the Italian Navy.
The forerunner of Radiomir was a large divers’watch,
the dial was scanned with Radium-an effective reflective substance but also a strong radioactive substance and incurable diseases.
Radium is also the origin of the later name Radiomir.
At the present time,
no one uses Radium as luminescent on watches anymore,
simply because it is too dangerous.
However,
at the time of the World War,
the danger of Radium really could not be compared with guns and landmines.
To make use of more reflectors,
Panerai designed a dual-layer dial with the lower layer covered with radium,
and the upper layer cut in some places to reveal the radium below.
This is a special design of the Radiomir series and is still used today.
The Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm model retains the traditional designs of the Radiomir line,
but will of course be equipped with more advanced tools to suit the new era.
We have the familiar angled Cushion case,
but crafted in much more precious rose gold than the traditional steel versions.
The connecting part is designed quite similar to the first wristwatches–which were just pocket watches and welded with two small straps to thread the strap.
It is this Vintage style that also makes the Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm more special–an old but also very new point.
The folding clasp of the Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm model is crafted in solid 18K rose gold.
This design is very solid,
but also really handy for those who are afraid to manipulate.
And of course,
folding buckles will be more difficult to make and require more materials than traditional clasps.
As analyzed above,
the dial is one of the most distinctive details of the Radiomir series,
and especially in low light.
In the dark,
the dial of the Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm stands out even more when fully illuminated.
The most prominent is probably the 2 carefully cut piles 12 and 6,
revealing the lower part covered with Super-LumiNova luminescent substance(not Radium–a radioactive substance that is too dangerous).
With enough light,
the two numbers 12 and 6 will temporarily give attention to the remaining 9 numbers,
which are handcrafted in monolithic rose gold.
With their embossed design,
these markers add depth to the dial,
and are also perfect highlights to help create beautiful photos.
All 6 hands on the dial(including the petrol needle)are coated with reflective material,
making the design brighter.
True to the name Panerai Radiomir 10 Days GMT,
this watch has two standout features:a GMT hand indicating a second time zone and a power reserve of up to 10 days(especially rare for an automatic watch).
In fact,
automatic watches can be wound continuously and do not need to have a very high power reserve.
So watches like the Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm don’t come around too often.
In addition to this model,
we only have a few prominent names such as the IWC Portugieser Automatic IW500710.
To achieve this,
Panerai used the P.2003 movement–Panerai’s first automatic movement designed and manufactured entirely in-house at its factory in Neuchatel.
This movement uses a rather special power reserve mechanism,
with three barrels:two on top of each other and the other one connected via a gear system–this mainspring is also responsible for displaying the duration.
winding on the watch dial.
Caliber P.2003 is assembled from 296 components with 25 jewels,
has a diameter of 13¾ligne and is about 8mm thick.
This movement inherits all the characteristics of the P.2000 series(frequency 28,800;
GMT function;
date calendar;seconds hand turns to 0 immediately when the crown is removed,…)
but the difference lies in the time.
large amount of core.
The only thing that makes me unhappy about this movement is the rotor–this part is not yellow to contrast with the rest of the movement(and coincide with the case).
To sum it up,
we can say that the Paneirai Radiomir 10 Days GMT Automatic Oro Rosso 45mm is a perfect watch that stays true to the brand’s tradition,
with a few technological breakthroughs.
Like other Panerai replica and fake rolex uk watches,
this model will only really appeal to those who love large watches,
and learn about this particular Italian brand.
