Some blu profondo aka deep blue for this new mid-sized eSteel model; and the glossy blue ceramic is a lovely new look for a Submersible (I mean we’ve seen matte but never gloss) but is it just more of the same?
​

You don’t need to be proficient in Italian to work out what QuarantaQuattro is all about; QuarantaQuattro is to 2022’s new Submersibles collection what quattro formaggi is to pizza!

It’s Panerai’s newfangled way of referring to a recently introduced 44mm case diameter for their dedicated Submersible diver’ watch family –

​
a byword if you will, where by all new models moving forward will now receive their case-size designations in Italian; such as the Luminor Quaranta models. Why? Well because QuarantaQuattro just sounds better than 44mm, doesn’t it!
​
Meet the new Submersible QuarantaQuattro eSteel™ Blu Profondo AKA PAM01289 which was introduced alongside several other QuarantaQuattro (44mm) Submersible models at Watches and Wonders 2022 in Geneva.
​
Its new mid-sized 44mm case is made from, penguin-friendly, sustainable, recycled, brushed eSteel™. This comes with a bit of a premium, though. Btw water-resistance is to 300m.
​
Special features of the watch include its deep blue polished gradient dial with matching ceramic bezel inlay. Meanwhile its blue winding-crown matches its blue tone on tone hand-stitched textile strap.
​

Powering the watch is an automatic mechanical, P.900 caliber, with 23 jewels, 28,800 alternations/hour, Incabloc anti-shock protection and a power-reserve of 3 days.

MSRP in Switzerland is CHF 10'900 incl. sales tax.

Thoughts? It’s very nice but honestly I’m all blued-out at these days, so it’s difficult to see beyond all the blue but what do you think?
