The Swiss brand with Italian heritage is proud to show off yet another Luminor Luna Rossa timepiece – a nod to the five-year partnership it has held with the sailing team owned by Prada CEO Patrizio Baterelli.
Panerai has created replica watches that take inspiration from the materials and technology used in the America’s Cup and the elegance of the yachting lifestyle at https://www.cindyforcongress.org.
With this one, you’ll be spoilt for choice as there are two straps to choose from – one is black rubber, while the other is dark grey fabric with a red stripe.
At 9 o’clock, you’ll find a small seconds hand in red, and at 6 o’clock, the proud Prada Cup holders, ‘Luna Rossa’, in text.
Powering the 100m water resistant watch is a P.6000 hand-wound movement particularly robust thanks to the twin bridges supporting the regulator and an Incabloc shockproof device. It offers a three-day power reserve and contains no fewer than 110 components and 19 jewels.
Panerai has been involved with other Italian sponsors, including Pirelli, Prada, and Parmigiano Reggiano, to bring America’s Cup home.
Qualifying for America’s Cup begins this month, and Italy will be keen to win the next event, which takes place in Barcelona in September and October 2024.
The 37th America’s Cup will see Emirates Team New Zealand defending its title against Ineos Britannia.
Several yacht clubs have sent teams to challenge the title over the years. At last America’s Cup, Luna Rossa became the Challenger of Record, though they were ultimately unsuccessful in overhauling the defending New Zealanders.
