Officine Panerai Pays a Tribute to its Naval Roots

p/p pRadiomir and Luminor are two words that strike most watch connoisseurs when they think of Panerai watches. While they originally intended to craft timepieces for military operations, the watch manufacturer, with time, has upped the ante when it comes to watch-making, with exceptional design-oriented enhancements in its timepieces.br /br /Officine Panerai recently unveiled the Radiomir 1940 Minute Repeater Carillon Tourbillon GMT- 49 mm, its most complicated timepiece ever. In the laymanandrsquo;s language, it is a watch which is certainly a collectorandrsquo;s dream. Inspired by its roots, the timepieceandrsquo;s hour and minute repeater mechanism takes you to the time when it all began.br /br /Homage to the brandandrsquo;s naval history, this timepiece is the perfect blend of minimalistic design and technical excellence, demonstrating Paneraiandrsquo;s dedication to design. Taking into consideration the importance of bells aboard a ship, the Radiomir 1940 Minute Repeater Carillon Tourbillon GMT boasts of double minute repeaters that chime in two time zones andndash; a local and home time. The chimes created by Panerai for this particular timepiece are carried out by three hammers instead of the traditional two. Each of these hammers strike the same number of gongs that are fixed to its movement. These three hammers feature their own distinct sound which results in a pleasing melody.br /br /The watch comes in an 18-karat rose gold case with a unique tourbillon and a brand new movement. Its carillon can be activated or deactivated at the push of button, located at 8 oandrsquo;clock, to avoid any unexpected chimes.br /br /This made-to-order timepiece was launched at the ongoing andlsquo;Dive into Timeandrsquo; exhibition at the Marino Marini Museum in Florence./p pandnbsp;/p pstrongMore On andgt;andgt; a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.luxpresso.com/watches" target="_blank"Watches/a/strong/p
