Watch Novelties
Watch brands continue to roll out new releases in the run up to the Baselworld Fair.
1. PANERAI Luminor Yachts Challenge
This comes in three new flyback chronographs inspired by the beauty of classic yachts. Yachts are a tribute to the world's long association with the sea and Panerai, which sponsors the Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge race. "PCYC" is inscribed on the three watches, which come in a titanium, matt black ceramic or gold 44mm case with the familiar Panerai crown-protecting device. The chronographs are equipped with a Panerai in-house automatic movement (P.9100) with a power reserve of three days. They also have a seconds reset mechanism, a speed calculator expressed in knots on the tachymeter scale and a rapid hour adjustment device. The three timepieces are distinguished by the colour combination of the dial and strap, which differ according to the case material. But all their dials are blue, the colour of the sea.
