Panerai’s Carbotech, a high-tech composite material based on carbon fiber takes on one of the Italian brand’s most historic silhouettes in this hot new model.
​
This is the Luminor Marina Carbotech™ Blu Notte AKA PAM01664 from Panerai. It boasts a 44mm case made from Panerai’s Carbotech.
​
In addition this ultra-lightweight, tough material has also been used for the watch’s fixed bezel as well as the Luminor Marina’s signature crown guard with Panerai trademark locking system.
​
Meanwhile as its Blu Notte name suggest it is one of those special edition models featuring a sun-brushed night blue dial.
​
Powering the watch is an automatic mechanical, P.9010 caliber, which has been executed entirely by the Panerai Manufacture.
​
Spec. of the P.9010 which comprises of 200 components includes: 13¾ lignes, 6mm thick, 31 jewels, Glucydur® balance, 28,800vph, Incabloc® anti-shock device, a power-reserve of 3 days and twin barrels.
​
The movement is protected by a solid Titanium case-back with a DLC (diamond like carbon) coating. Water-resistance is 300m.
​

The watch comes on a 24mm, dark blue alligator strap with tone on tone but could be paired with any number of straps like this Panerai embossed rubber diver’s strap.

MSRP is 13’900USD.

​

Thoughts? As far as I’m concerned, this watch has it all: exclusivity, classic good looks, plenty of substance thanks to that Carbotech case, a reasonable diameter (for a Panerai) and an in-house movement.
